Lidl’s holey bread is something of a holey show

Lidl have over 180 shops in the Republic and are
Lidl’s holey bread

planning for further expansion.

They opened their first shop in Ireland in 202o.

The company’s bakery counter offers a large selection of breads.

Their current sourdough brown sourdough loaf costs €2.99. 

The in-store slicing machine is a helpful facility, especially if you want to freeze the bread.

It’s tasty, maybe cheaper than other shops, but what about the holes. Any chance of discount for the holes.

This holey bread is something of a holey show.
