Lidl
Visitors say
It's a huge market. You can easily find almost anything sold in the markets. There is also a huge parking area.
The place is very good and it was near the refugee camp I was in and the refugees were very helpful with Lidl because of its cheap prices. Thank you Lidl
About
Lidl is a well-known European discount supermarket chain with a branch conveniently located near Achlia, serving both local residents and visitors exploring the eastern part of Lesvos. For travelers, a stop here is an excellent opportunity to stock up on essentials, whether that means fresh produce, local Greek staples, chilled drinks for a beach day, or affordable wine and cheese for an impromptu picnic.
The store offers the familiar Lidl mix of everyday groceries, seasonal specials, and household goods at competitive prices. Alongside standard supermarket fare, you can often find Greek products such as olive oil, honey, and yogurt, making it a practical place to pick up a few edible souvenirs or provisions for self-catering accommodation. The accessible layout and straightforward pricing make it a stress-free shopping stop even for visitors unfamiliar with local shops.
For those touring the island by car, this Lidl serves as a useful landmark and resupply point before heading to nearby beaches or villages. It is the kind of no-fuss stop that quietly makes a holiday run more smoothly, ensuring you have everything you need to fully enjoy the natural beauty and hospitality that the surrounding Lesvos countryside has to offer.
Before you go
What to expect
A large-format discount supermarket a short drive from Mytilene, well suited for loading up on beach supplies, chilled drinks, and Greek staples like olive oil, honey, and yogurt. The layout is clear and prices are marked, making it a low-friction stop even on a packed travel day. Self-caterers and car travelers find it especially useful before heading to the eastern beaches or villages.
Best time to visit
Open year-round; early mornings are the quietest, while midsummer afternoons tend to get busy with both locals and holidaymakers.
How to get there
Head north from Mytilene toward Achlia — the store is roughly a 5 to 10 minute drive from the city centre and easy to spot from the main road.

Large store with great variety and decent prices, but the experience is dampened by unfriendly staff and constant begging inside the store and around the parking lot due to the nearby refugee camp.

Lidl is very much like Aldi in Australia and Germany, good service good range it had a great bakery, and covered parking spots so the car doesn’t get hot while you’re inside.

Big parking space, clean and very well organized. Return policies are weirdly applied depending on the respective employee you encounter.

Me and my friends have been wondering about the competence of the management of this place… The products are great. The prices are better than most places. The staff is very pleasant and most times they try to be helpful. Where the problem starts is that the lines are frustratingly long. Almost every time. Additionally, the people at the desk, while being very friendly most times, can be distracted, talking amongst themselves through the intercom, cracking jokes while their costumers are waiting in lines of 7 and 10 people deep. They can have 30 customers and 3 desks working, and you’re wondering if they can’t do the math. If you visit, make sure to add 10 or 15 minutes to your schedule of just waiting in line. Don’t go if you’re in a hurry. I’m sorry. We love LIDL, but we end up avoiding this one as much as we can for this purpose.
