Lidl

This is possibly the best supermarket in Barrhead for Fruit and Veg. Nothing else compares.
A lot of strange European foods that have been shipped over.
Finally, the booze selection is pretty wacky.
This is the best place to find beer featured in GTA IV. Pisswasser is sold here in six packs. Impress your friends — — if you have any.

Great value, good car park, friendly staff…

Definately a bargain store for all your basics!
A roomy free car park and a large bright store. As anyone who has shopped at a Lidl knows, many of the brand names are German or European, but don’t let the low prices fool you
These are quality foodstuffs, and total value for money. You can stock up on everything you need by way of store-​cupboard basics and kitchen basics, for sometimes nearly half the price that you’d pay in the more up-​market stores.
The chocolate and candy section is pure temptation. Boxes of Belgian pralines and bars of dark bitter chocolate. Mmmmmmmm
There is a small fresh produce selection as well, again very inexpensive, and I find they tend to stay fresh a whole lot longer than other supermarket fruit and veg.
Their alcohol section is small but again the prices are highly competitive and there are real bargains to be had, with decent, drinkable wines.
Note that there is no tobacco section so you can’t pick up a packet of ciggies there!
It’s well worth a visit, even if you aren’t in need of a bargain trolley dash! So many of the items have become family favourites now, it’s definately one of my must-​visit shops for larger bulk buys.
In fact, the only reason it doesn’t get five stars is that there are never very many staff around, and although you might get lucky and breeze through a checkout quickly, it’s just as likely you’ll be stuck behind a long queue.
People do tend to do full-​trolley shops, and really it needs more than just two checkouts open in busy times like this. The staff themselves have always been friendly and helpful, and it’s not their fault that they’re understaffed.
Plus the checkout desks themselves are small and you have to scrabble to put your shopping away whlst it piles up and balances precariously on the thin ledge. There are never any ‘packers’ as with some of the larger stores.
But these are just minor grumbles weighed against the fantastic savings and excellent quality and surprising variety of items to be had.
