    They installed them in blackpool store two weeks ago but as yet no baked goods guess their looking for a baker. Cant wait.

    That'll be a warmer-upper, not a baker.

    The ordinary staff are trained to operate the ovens. It's just a matter of switching them on, putting the part-baked items in then taking them out again when the buzzer goes.

    The only problem with Lidl's bakery is that some of the bread baskets are low down so little children pick the bread up or play with it and then put it back. It's not the most hygenic so I go for the top row, and have a couple of wanders past so that I get there just as the bread/rolls/pretzels are being put out.
  • sounds awesome lidl having a bakery but then if its just reheated it will be like most stores bakeries then. did go through a phrase recently of buying lots of m&s bread that was reduced to clear and it was really nice but it wasn't being used and i needed the freezer space so i stopped. however i now have loads of wrights bread mixes lol.
