"I love Aldi but this one is lacking in friendliness if the staff are not happy its not my fault not is it Aldi"
"Founded by Mr Al D"
"This is a staff review only! I am always in Aldi's once every 2 weeks doing my daily shop"
"I have been shopping in this Aldi more than 2 years and I am happy with cashiers and personnel all the time"
"Great supermarket"
I love Aldi but this one is lacking in friendliness if the staff are not happy its not my fault not is it Aldi. Some staff seem to take it upon themselves to be negative and appear to be put out by the customers. I heard this said in a place I worked by a staff member "Only for the customers this would be a great place to work" I kid you not. If you are not happy where you work or your work makes you angry and or unhappy there is something you can do to solve your problem straight away.....LEAVE now. You are not sentenced by a judge to work in Aldi. Do not judge us customers we have the same fears as you do with life but for Christ's sake a smile is free a nice hello is free eye contact is free but it returns to you an abundance of joy. It takes serious effort to be unfriendly and you get it back in buckets and only you can change. ALDI please spend some time telling your staff this or just visit Lidl in Gullivers or Homebase or McDonald's or Home Focus or IKEA my God the lessons are free and easy to learn. Even my dog can train them just look at him....you see nice is good.
Founded by Mr Al D. Albrecht, he once found himself stuck on a snowy road, blocked by a tree, starving and no light around to see what he was doing. He thought to himself, I wish there was a shop where I could get some food, some ski gear to get back easier, a chainsaw to cut the tree and some new headlamps for my car. Aldi was now born. He did though seem to have something against people who collect shopping trolleys, at €2 to use a trolley, that's double what other shops charge, if a collector wants to take it home to keep he will lose his €2. This branch in particular compensates this with loads of free parking, is well stocked with everything and the staff are friendly and helpful too. Note: Although this story might not be true, some facts remain. The store does stock everything from your weekly shop to power tools, ski gear and all sorts of gadgets you don't really need but will buy anyway. It is €2 for a trolley compared to the standard €1 slot, parking is free and stock is always good.
This is a staff review only! I am always in Aldi's once every 2 weeks doing my daily shop. I went in on Saturday 25th of May 2019 twice and went to the same staff member on till number five. Once was my few bits and a box of Budweiser with my sister of 22 years of age getting a different transaction. I am 23 years of age, had ID with me and because I was talking to my sister who had no ID with her, I was refused the box of Budweiser. Only because I was with my sister who had no ID with her. I then went back for a bottle of liquor and the staff member was so rude. He had the red light on hes till while still sitting at hes till and a que at the other till which was open. I asked the staff member at till 5 was he closed and he said yes. So I walked to the other till and while I was at the other till 1 minute later he reopened hes till. While being served the way he spoke to me was so rude, this man is only new and so rude!
I have been shopping in this Aldi more than 2 years and I am happy with cashiers and personnel all the time. It is my number 1 store after Tesco around here. By saying this, today I am very disappointed by the treatment of a cashier that I have not seen before there. The blonde lady with glasses seems to me picking people to warn about very unknown rule - you would be normally warned by "next time you come into the store bring a trolley to load your groceries into " in this time I am warned in opposite way - no trolleys can be used to load and unload your bag, therefore you need to pack in and make wait others wait for you which is totally opposite of other stores doing. Furthermore, there were trolleys after the checkpoint which is actually a sign of she is picking people to warn. It makes me feel being discriminated based on my ethnicity.
Great supermarket. I haven't been here in a while - Lidl and Supervalu are more convenient - but I was blown away by the quality and range on offer, for my shop today fresh beef and fish in particular. They're also selling a nice range of Christmas puddings, etc., and in the year of COVID it surely is OK to eat Christmas cake in October!!!!! Great value as always, no queue to get in (midday Thursday) and plenty of space to maintain social distancing (very effective traffic light system on the entrance). Although relatively long queues had built up by my time to checkout (3+ at all open checkouts), staff responded very quickly and the queues were cleared within 5 minutes. Really impressive customer service! Definitely time to return to regular shopping at Aldi Santry Avenue!
Santry store is nice , great pricing on items but my only suggestions would be to have more specials fortnightly, also some of the staff are not great at hello or smiling at you at the till especially the short cheeky foreign blond haired female. Tough face but very unfriendly. One guy in particular from the store is rude and totally ignores you and does not hand you back your money without as much as a thank you or acknowledgement. He is not nice at all so I avoid certain staff for that reason. If the managers could chat to their supervisors on customer service skills for their staff and possibly retrain some of them to be more welcoming and less of the scouling faces from the females. That would be a change and greatly appreciated.
I went to my local Aldi store in Clonmel today. I do 90 percent of my weekly shopping there. I regularly by their ground coffee, especially their ethiopian blend which would be my favourite. I bought 3 bags about 2 weeks ago and opened one and used a few spoons to brew a pot as normal and it was undrinkable. My friend also buys this blend and found the same awful taste. When I asked the manager in Clonmel if I could exchange the unopened bags for a different blend I was told that unless I had my reciept this wasn't possible. Now this is an Aldi product and I CANT buy it in any other store. Will someone tell me why I can't exchange them. Very poor customer service indeed for one of their most regular customers.
After years of lying about their animal testing practices, Aldi own brand products are no longer tested on animals, and even have the Leaping Bunny label. They have a great vegan range - "no beef" burgers, "no chicken" burgers, sausage rolls, spicy bean burgers, soy milk, almond milk, and a great selection of fruit, veg, grains, nuts and seeds. They are lacking vegan cheese, yogurt and ice cream, although they do a couple of sorbets that are cruelty free. Lovely staff - cheerful and helpful. Always low prices and quality fruit and vegetables.
Addi is great to shop in if you know exactly what you are looking for. Unfortunately you will not get ma y of the big ne items, but having said that their own brand it's are mostly of a high standard at a far lesser price. Another disadvantage is at times they run out of stock of their most popular items. Another advantage in shopping with Aldi is their free parking. If you purchase Aldi brand goods they are of a high standard at a far lesser price. They do not have a bakery like Lidl
Good stuff.. sometimes very crowed.. helpful staff if you can find them.. mostly they are busy doing there work of refilling when many people cone to shop.. don't understand why can't they refill before or after the shop open for business.. big loading trolleys take space and most of the time kept in front of products a customer wants to buy.. and it doesn't even look safe as kids come and something can fall off the trolley makes the place very tight to move around..
Wide variety of products available and very good choice and price. One thing that could be addressed is the supermarket trolleys not being returned to the trolley bays by customers. I saw a number of people just leaving them in the car park and could cause an obstruction or damage to vehicles. Perhaps this could be monitored periodically to ensure trolleys are rounded up and returned to the correct area by member of staff.
Nearly every item in store stretches your euro further I'd say if aldis delivered it would smoke any of the other competition outta the water cheap isn't the word depends on what the customer is looking for if u drink alco from heavey booze to low fat wine its your 1 stop shop foods great don't mind the ads on tv bring 20e with you a list a few bags r your own trolley one of them granda yolks savage
Presentation of the store when entering not very clean...More staff just packing shelfs..House keeping needs to be looked at..The fresh fruit section needs to be looked at..picked up so called fresh strawberrys looked under the package full of green mold..informed floor manager she was no more intrested in what I was saying...She just kept packing shelfs...Over all 3/10 on shop experience...
Surprised at the amount of customers not wearin masks tonight in Aldi Coolock? Thursday 20th August, thought it was Mandatory? I have seen customers stopped by staff in Dunnes Stores and asked to put a mask on, which is only right considering the current rise in Covid cases, surprised that there was no policing of it in Aldi as such.
It was relatively good when we got there as it was a.Sunday. There was Security on the door keeping watch on the numbers going in but as there wasn't too many , everyone was well away from each other. Plenty on hand sanitisers as well as paper towels to use in conjunction with the sanitiser to wipe down trollies when needed.
As Peter stated, poor traffic management. There needs to be more action regarding poor parking, as it is in the middle of a busy road not designed for 1/4 of the current traffic. How they got planning permission is beyond me. Still, the store itself is good,but tends to run out of stock if you're there in the evening time.
I always shop here it's great value and food bill is slashed dramatically can't fault only one thing I don't like is the fact I get gift vouchers and I have to spend every cent because aldi won't give you back change its a bit degrading and also I can never get a small trolley other than that the food is great value
This is frills free supermarket shopping at its best. Customer shopping experience might be jeopardised but quality, choice, and price of food is most definitely not. You will have to pack your own bags at the bagging area but you won't wait long at the till and the savings and quality are more than worth it.
Normally shop in Aldis in Kells, where it is clean, and organized. I would happily give Kells 5 stars. This one in Santry was none of these. It was dirty, stock was disorganized and needed tidying on the shelves. It was difficult to find anything. Only good thing was that the staff were curteous.
Love shopping in Aldi. Great value, great products & some fantastic added extras each week. Fresh fruit & veg always well presented, along with great bargains in the meat area. Definitely recommend trying out your weekly shop there....you will be very surprised at how much youll save at the till.
Clean & well-stocked. Cheap clothing. Many alternative replicas of branded products that are mainly less appetising but OK. Generally good meat choice & reasonable quality. Fresh fruit & veg has short life. Not great for quick smaller shopping trips as no self-scan or 10 item checkouts.
I like this place except my biggest and really my only complaint is that it's often packed with people and more often than not, you can barely move around with your trolly or basket. Apart from that, it does have a great and cheap selection of food and free parking.
If it was possible to give a minus rating I would, I'm sick and tired of buying food from this kip only to get home and find out that it's rancid despite having a valid date. Chicken, steaks, even cans of tuna can't be trusted. Smell everything when you open it.
I like the long-awaited price competition with Aldi an Lidl. Yesterday, I shopped at Aldi for the first time in year's. I tried to buy the same products as I buy in Lidl - a little more in fact and I paid €5 less overall than in Lidl. Small but significant.
Once again I proved myself right. You can spend millions on upgrading your business, but at the end all depends from your staff. No wonder I dont shop here even though its 5 min from my house. Will try again in 10 years. For now, thanks and see you later.
The Aldi store on Santey Lane has been there for many years and is very popular with the local people , they have weekly special offers and the food is good quality,the also sell toiletries and house hold goods these goods totaled on a seasonal basis.
Great value for money. Great stock levels Food of very good quality. Never an issue with and fresh veg , fruit or meats. Quick in and out as always independent stores and no distractions to other stores like in the bigger shopping centres. Love Aldi..
This is my favourite local shopping centre and has plenty of parking in its facilities. It is a very economic shop so easy on the wallet. But even though I'm a fan it is limited by its selection compared to other main stream grocery shopping centres.
Excellent value, extremely helpful freindly staff all times, parking always available, very clean &hygenic,I do most of my shopping there ,always great bargains,their staff are so friendly and kind and helpful ,very spacious for prams wheelchair etc.
Great staff friendly so helpful.Stock great price so easy must buy.Bread to die for stock is that Good.Granary bread Hovis luv it.Layout very very good easy shopping.When shop packed staff Just handle it with ease they don't panic just so friendly.
Chaotic. Trying to buy special buy item that was supposed to be in stock last Tuesday. Item not in stock and not listed on dellayed items list. Visited stores for five days in a row with no success. Staff unable to help. A disaster. Finally gave up
Great shop, click and collect is great, very smooth system and an easy to use platform. It would be great if when searching for "usuals" that these items would all show up in one page, other than that great to just reorder shopping list. Well done
Probably my favourite shop, situated on East Wall Rd ,plenty of parking either here or across the road in Lidl, good range of food stuff, easy to move around in,staff very helpful, shelf always seemed to be stacked, plenty of tills for check out.
Good prices but no customer service you don't get a second to pack your bags they always have pallets on the floor staff would never think of moving them out of the way when I mentioned it to a member of staff I was told "thats the way we work"
Excellent. I had the brochure & got all I wanted on "special". Plants were dead. Cashier very pleasant. Got wine I didn't get in Coolock. 7.30pm. a great time to shop for a 69yr. old. I will be 70 next week but I never get up before 12noon.
It's a pretty nice Aldi. Reasonably organized and clean (aka doesn't feel claustrophobic like some other Aldis) and the staff are extremely helpful. They also have a wide variety of products, even if they don't have many units of each item
A good shop in a good location until you get asked for €2 for the bus home at the door by some locals who always happen to be short for the bus stop right outside:) :) :) Tip: don't give them bus fare you are only enabling them :)
Good standard Aldi, low prices on good quality food and goods. Food items can be relativity sophisticated at very reasonable prices. Range a bit limited in comparison with some more expensive supermarkets but not seriously so.
Is very handy to go after work or after the gym. The prices are ok and you can find a lot of Irsih products. Is not the best place to buy fish, if you don't eat it the same day hight chance to be gone instead of the date.
Great shop always preferred Aldi's than Lidl, prices are very cheap and get a trolley full for around €60-€70. Also does great deals on your gardening equipment and work clothes and gym clothes and electrical appliance..
The new layout is grand.apart from.loads food products out of date.was raw chicken and turkeys gone off by 3 days.coleslaw aswell.told a girl at checkout and she looked at me like I had 10 heads.wont shop tere again.
Went looking for a particular item, appears to be no longer available, but there was a substitute item available. Good price items, different from traditional Irish household items, but are just as good and cheaper.
Aldi is great place to shop it has everthing under one roof , very nice staff if need to find anything , best time to shop is early mornings or late evening before it closes at 10 . More quiet then . Great places
Good store but fairly unfriendly staff. I understand the store is busy but the till staff are just eager to get you out and get rid of the queue. Also wish there were self service tills for smaller purchases.
Nice big store... but you couldnt get down the aisles as pallets in middle of floor... restocking of shelves should be done before store opens or after it closes. Health safety issue if somebody gets hurt.
Good selection of food products especially cold meats. Flowers are great value and a great range too. Good for a gander for the weekly special offers. Good parking and queues managed well at tills.
It's a place with genuinely priced items. I found chicken and meats bit cheaper than other stores. Although most of the eating stuffs were about to expire, it's yet a good store to shop groceries.
Clean and well lit but they only had one working toll st closing time resulting in a mad rush trying to get any alcohol purchases in before 10 pm, and there were no trolleus next to the doors
Not very impressed. Staff always look and feel like they're being forced to be there, they're not very friendly. A lot of the product is sometimes off in the packet. Premises clean and tidy.
Oh Aldi, I will give you a tree because even though you are cheaper than most of the shops around you do not give €10 or €50 voucher codes or anything like that so you could do better
The trip was earmarked when little thugs smashed a window from outside, the staff reacted excellently , making sure no one was hurt and the vandals were caught and handed to the Garda
Regular store for all house hold groceries and stuff. You get a lot of options too. Keep looking at their brochures online to know what new items will be available for special buys.
Very busy store, not entirely sure its well staffed, as it may or may not be replenished as the day goes on, I have had strange encounters with the staff at times asking for items.
Good stock levels. Handy parking and no queue at checkout. Was also able to get a lotto ticket at the checkout which I had not seen in an Aldi before and was impressed with this.
Nice place to go to shop ! Very low prices and a lot of things you need in your home every day! I shop in this store every week and I’m very impressed! Nice staff! Good job !
Can be a little bit and miss with the selection of fresh produce. Also can be slower than normal at tills as the staff love to chat with each other. Overall it's a good Aldi
This is a standard Aldi store, good for buying your shopping and offers a range of special offers weekly. Has a decent sized car park and trolleys are always available.
Usually smooth shopping stop, definitely appreciate the less pricey stuff, my best shoes come from here, interesting deli and dairy products, so we come to Aldi often
All you need at a fraction of the price. We live 2 minutes away so it relevant3and easy to use. As i said,it has everything you need at a fraction of the price.
Stock levels can be very low in the afternoons/evenings, especially for fresh fruit and vegetables. The store are good for managing queue levels at the tills.
They don't always have everything stocked and I wish they had a better section for canned goods, but it's okay I guess. The staff here are really nice though
Aldi is quite a nice place to shop. Most items are affordable and the staff are also nice. I think the safety of the customers and their staff is a priority.
Aldi is great the quality is excellent and the prices even better. I'm lucky to live near a shop. Wish the would use the cash back option like other stores.
Busy store. Wide Isles, great for social distancing. The middle Isle is a killer though. Mind your wallet, so many great deals in the middle Isle. …
Aldi is a pleasant place to shop in it was not crowded when I was there and a very nice checkout guy packed my bag for Me il definitely go back there
Well stocked staff, policy on returns on bigger items that are only sold by aldi is silly and needs to be changed. But generally a very good shop.
I like Aldi! I know where everything is. The staff are helpful and courteous. And they have high trolleys , important if you are an older shopper.
Aldi in Santry Lane has been updated, with wider lanes and well stocked shelves. The meat section is particularly good, we'll worth checking out.
Good place to go shopping for food. Does not have a great variety but it is definitely cheaper then most of the places. Could be more organised.
This was amazing and cheap really people are nice too and very interesting this shopping is better what we need for the dinner or lunch or party
This is a very good example of an Aldi in Ireland, just be mindful entering and exiting the carpark. Can be a bit hairy at times on that road!
The business itself is fine, some of the customers are not so much. I actually felt uncomfortable at one stage. Maybe it was just a once off.
Typical Aldi, usual offers and extra fresh veg. Any que and they open extra tills so pushes through fairly quickly compared to other stores!
What's the good having disabled ♿ spaces if full of lazy people. Please start checking cars for disabled badges and clamping them if none.
Pretty good store and a big one for that. Prices are seriously competitive as compared to nearby Tesco and Lidl stores. 5 Stars for me.
Pointless having parent and child parking if their own security guards cars are going to occupy them. In store staff etc all good.
Nice and quiet in the store, it's a shame the carpark was a nightmare,, very hard pushing your trolly through a stone /pebble path
Lots of tills open when I was there. Plenty of free spaces to park and I felt safe enough with the Covid19 measures put in place.
Enjoy visiting this shop for house goods shopping great selection of foods and treats, not forgetting the middle island bargains
Good place to do your quick shopping, but I give 4 stars, every time I go there, there is one major item they are out of.
Do my main shop here, always enjoy browsing the tool section. Had a fantastic deal on sandpaper recently so I stocked up.
New Layout After a few visits everything will be easy to find , GREAT VALUE Xtra stock in this new Layout …
The best (and cheapest) market in this area. Nice staff and wide range of products. Clean and well organized shop.
Spotless shop with friendly helpful staff. Good variety of food. Fresh flowers available, newspapers and magazines
Good shop very reasonable prices , veg is top quality and since it was extended the aisles are far more spaces
A lot of stock missing as usual, but tesco as bad i don't know if they are blaming brexit or covid this time !
Not bad,many cheep items such are food,hygiene products and other...just I couldn't find a cigarettes …
Very nice place to do shopping in Aldi. The prices are affordable. I recommend everyone to shopping there.
Great value for money. The best supermarket for quality and price for your weekly shop. Can't beat it.
Lot's of varieties for every product. A lot of staff to handle rush plus has bicycle parking as well
Great store for grocery, household and gardening products, nicely laid out, plenty of free parking
Delighted to see they have upgraded their Santry shop which is now much more modern and very clean
Usually great value but recently less products available and prices have gone up significantly
Cool collection. Good prices on frozen section. Dileveroo at door delivery available as well.
Loads of stock, slightly discouraged from returning with someone outside asking for change
Great own brand produce, fresh breads daily, ample parking and unbelievable prices!
Went in to get a few things but came out with more. Great deals and friendly staff
Was empty and easy to get around but I can see there prices going up so watch out
Nice tidy shop, very good checkout staff, not crowded so a pleasure to shop thei
Good value never too busy excellent staff always a pleasant shopping experience
