When I have this discussion with any Danes, basically every time they call me pretty much insane for saying that I will always choose Lidl over Netto. Supermarkets in Denmark in general are quite bad, with little choice, poor quality, products not in stock, but I generally think the foreign ones like Lidl or Rema 1000 have a better standards and a little more interesting range of products. So what is yours?

PS: I wish we had ICA here

In my town we have a Netto, Rema 1000, Superbrugsen, and ABC Lavpris.

I prefer Netto. Their selection of goods is more to my liking. Excellent vegan choices and interesting "spot" items. Prices are fair without being crazy good.

ABC Lavpris is 90% meh, but then their fruit and vegetable section is the best of all, and then every week they have that one thing that's crazy discounted, so you go there once a week to just buy that one thing in bulk.

Rema 1000 used to be my favorite, but their selection of goods has really dropped in quality I think. Their fruit and vegetable section is crap, their miscellaneous section is a mess of mostly unappealing items that I feel zero impulse to buy, and their vegan choices are limited. Plus they've gotten generally more expensive.

Superbrugsen I never go to unless I want to be ripped off. I know what everyday things typically cost, and in Superbrugen they're consistently 10% higher - for the exact same things! Once in a while they got something unique, so I bend the knee and go there, but otherwise I stay away. It's for people who have too much money and who likes wine and cheese, I guess.

I wish we had a Lidl in my town, it's the one supermarket I am envy of other towns and cities having. I think the ideal is to have at least one German supermarket, if only because you get a selection of stuff that Danish supermarkets don't carry.

Yes ICA! Idk how they do it, but even stores just 20% bigger than your average Føtex have 5x as much variety

Kvickly.

Lidl, Netto, and Rema 1000 are all much worse.

Daily: SuperBrugsen and Rema Regularly: Bilka and Lidl

Netto sucks. It always feels messy to me, and their produce is somehow worse (like their raspberries looks the same but somehow goes bad very fast compared to superbrugsen), the lines are long, and items don’t have prices. Self checkout solves the last two issues though.

I shop mostly in Lidl. I find the deals and what they have on the shelves fit our household needs the best.

I used to shop more in Super Brugsen, but it just seems like they are getting worse items for a higher price.

I dont know if there's others, but super Marco is the best.

Ironically Italien.

Føtex is my favourite but out of the smaller local ones I prefer Rema for daily groceries. When I need Asian specialities, I go to Coop365.

Netto was decent a decade ago, but nowadays it is shares the bottom placement with Aldi.

Føtex. Larger selection, not as cheap as the smaller discount stores, but cheaper than the other large store supermarkets.

My favourites are:

Lidl for most things

Rema1000 for the rest, but I dont like how almost everything is small packs because we buy for 4 or 5 people at a time, unless someone has something on sale or it's a quick need like out of milk or something, then I go to the local Coop365.

Meny is by far the best, especially now that Irma is gone. It's not even close. The bigger ones have an incredible assortment of fresh, interesting produce, many kinds of meat and a large range of good wine and craft beer. It's not cheap, but it's quality. You get what you pay for.

Coop said that there will supposedly be a new chain just called Coop (not 365), which will apparently carry some of the product lines that Irma had, but I highly doubt that this will actually happen, because I have zero confidence in Coop at this point. It's all either bog standard goods or the saddest discount imaginable with them, and it is just depressing. I prefer Lidl and over anything that Coop has, because they are at least a little bit different and interesting in their own way.

Lidl or Rema1000, hands down.

Meny is good, Irma is great but shutting down.

Føtex has a great selection and a butcher+greens department.

Netto is the best of the cheap but depends A LOT on who is running it. I have three closeby, 1 great, 1 good and 1 mediocre.

Lidl er klart det mest veggie-venlige. Rema er også ganske ok med udbud og gode priser. Jeg bliver derimod depri af at gå i Netto. Det er så rodet og beskidt som en kammerats singlelejlighed.

Rema 1000, then Lidl and lastly Netto. Thats my top 3 starting with Rema. Netto is cheap and handy but very unorganised and I often find out of date food, so always check when you go shopping there.

Føtex for the Illest

Rema1000 for the basics, Meny for fancier stuff, LIDL for the wacky country specific products. Like, you can buy actual guanciale to make spaghetti carbonara by the book In Lidl whenever they have Italy Week, which is quite often.

Normally you have to seek out a shop specialising in Italian stuff. Same goes for Balkan week, Eastern Europe week and Middle East Week.
