Lidl (Peckham) closed for 3 months

[Twoddle]

Lidl in Peckham is closed from 30th July to 27th October for a new paint job.

Went in there this afternoon and staff were emptying the shelves while I could at least get a half decent shop in. Next nearest store is Old Kent Road.

Was a Co-op shopper but prices are silly now except for stuff like eggs, broccoli and baked beans.

Think Camberwell Green Lidls maybe a tad closer. It's on the bottom ofDenmark Hill

Thanks, although Morrisons in Peckham will probably be my choice until they open up again.

Apparently Lidl isn't just getting a lick of paint, but is moving into Poundstretcher's current shop, so they need to knock down the wall between the two stores to make it larger.

Poundstretcher's being compressed, then?

Good to know - thanks.

I think there's an Aldi on the OKR as well.

The LIDL in Camberwell is small and often quite sparse, but always has essentials.

When did the Asda close? I didn't notice until today it 3qs gone. Not surprised - it always seemed a bit sad and it was neither cheaper nor better than Morrisons...

I think it was at the end of May. The lease came to an end and the new rent asked was too high

Poundstretcher had a half price sale then disappeared for good a few months back. The cashier told me Lidl were planning on using it as a warehouse. Shame, they were good for odds and sods, or for when Lidl didn't have the new frying pan you needed in the middle aisle.

Poundstretchers opened up a new store on Walworth Road (332/334) a little bit of a trek, but it's the same staff.

That was last week. It won't be there now again for some unspecified time, while even more extensive rebuilding than Lidl's takes place. https://southwarknews.co.uk/featured/old-kent-road-aldi-packs-up/

There is/was a Lidl in Sydenham. Haven’t been there in a few years though.

I’m looking forward to the new Peckham Lidl opening.
