Trader Joe’s

This is my favorite location to shop at. The produce is always fresh, shelves are always fully stocked and I love the samples. Employees are friendly and the checkout lines are rarely long.

Great customer service! It’s awesome to see such genuine people going out of their way to help you, special shout out to David for helping me with my bread!

I usually come here now since this spot is on the way to work. Every trader joe’s is essentially the same. I like creating small chat with the cashiers and they are quick to chat and very speedy. All trader joe’s are awesome.
Favorite items and go to items.
Tuna wrap
almond butter (7 bucks though)
fruits
tofu blocks

This Trader Joe’s is a little more spacious than some of the other ones I’ve been to. I like the larger aisles! The staff was friendly and helpful when I asked for almond meal. I was distracted by the whole almonds right above the almond meal when I walked by! Lol. Trader Joe’s usually has a better deal on almond meal than any of the other markets I’ve been too. $ 6.99/lb here compared to $ 10+/lb elsewhere. Good deal!
They have free samples at the back of the store; the veggie dumplings were delicious! Lastly, at check out, the cashier was really friendly. The whole process was pretty quick. Plenty of parking and right next to Smart & Final!
Review ¹²⁄₁₀₀ for 2016

Typical Trader Joes. So you’ll see the usual stock. Layout is functional. Customer service is always friendly and helpful. Quick sample in the back with coffee.
Now the reason for the full five stars: their parking lot. I’m sorry but many other Trader Joe’s parking lots are either really small and/​or have a funky layout that is extremely inconvenient. So when I see a normal larger than strip mall parking lot for Trader Joes, I have to commend them on being smarter than the average owner. So good job Chatsworth business owner (clap clap clap)
Remember: food adventures are out there. So eat ‘em up! Even if it means doing a little kitchen adventures too.

I too used to be a Trader Joes fan until Trader Joes corporate raised its very ugly corporate head after I unintentionally wrote a check that was NSF, after I ended up in the hospital for an emergency appendectomy. TJ is a multi billion $ corporation and yet they refused a payment arrangement for a modest check and are threatening to prosecute me, But the upside is that I went to Sprouts instead and their food is much better and more flavorful! And they have a deli.

This Trader Joe’s has nice wide aisles so there are fewer traffic jams when you are looking for that favorite variety of trail mix. The staff are friendly and helpful. The parking lot is large and I had no problem finding a parking spot.

I’ve learned to appreciate Trader Joe’s for what it is and this location especially. Although there is a lot of older folks here (50+) it can get a little slow when navigating the aisles with a cart. But this store has more room than the TJ’s on Balboa and that is my regular spot. I might drive further out to come to this one instead because of the extra shopping space inside.

Trader Joe’s is the epitome of a great food store! They have everything you should and will want to eat. A nice variety of healthy & organic items, without breaking the bank. They have beers, salads, and their own types of snacks. I recently tried a dark chocolate covered nut mix, it was excellent. They also have their own flavored sparkling water which I enjoy. Parking is pretty easy here. An all around great store!

Trader Joe’s seem to be remarkably standardized. Same products, similar layouts, and friendly employees. Some products are better than others. Some of the packaging is really small. This is my favorite location, though, due to the easy parking and adjacent businesses. Often a one-​stop shopping experience.

I love this place!!! I buy all my organic food here! And the Indian food is amazing!!! The costumer service is great!!! Great shopping experience!

Trader Joe’s is my FAVORITE market! Everyone who works here is so happy and there hasn’t been a time when I haven’t left here feeling great.
I get some of my favorite things from here: prepacked salads for work, almond milk, OJ, milton’s multigrain bread, cereal, figs, potted plants, you name it!

As with all Trader Joe’s, the downside to this location is the parking lot. Luckily it’s larger than most TJs in the area. But people drive just as crazily and park just as miserably so it can be difficult to find parking.
But once you’re inside, this location is just as great as other TJs. Well stocked, extremely friendly staff, and decently priced food. The struggle to get into TJs is always worth it. Inside the walls of TJs are the complete opposite to the outside.

My few sentences to describe the trader Joe: «Trader Joe’s offers friendly employees perfectly packaged with great and reasonable prices.» and «those of you who’ve never shopped at Trader Joe’s, it’s probably difficult to understand why people are so doggedly loyal to and enthusiastic about the natural and organic food retailer.»
Who doesn’t love the store that believes «Sale» is a four letter word and has happy employees who ring bell and wear funny hats with Hawaiian shirts?
Trader Joe’s is known for being a yuppie magnet with its vast and nicely and reasonably priced wine that goes beyond the popular «Two Buck Chuck» and varieties of cheese selections, but the retailer has proven to wide range of shoppers.
Foodies love the place for its unique product assortment that features flavors and foods from around the world. Busy parents with kids in tow are made welcome and at home within the stores aisles. Organic and non-​GMO advocates support the company’s broad selection of organic foods and its mission and goal to NEVER include genetically modified ingredients in any of its privately-​label products. Perhaps more enthuthiastic, however, are the bargain hunters who can always find killer deals on everything from fair trade dark chocolate bars to dried Banana chips at TJ’s.
Trader Joe’s careful curation of products: Most of which are parts of their own private-​label line which makes shopping there a cultural experience. The retailers clipper sales clerks (who are always clad in Hawaiian shirts) and bell ringing system designed for employee communication which only adds to its quirky and fun atmosphere for grocery shoppers.
Even though TJ’S operates more than 300 location here in states, each location with its relatively small footprint and carefully selected product offerings which make you feel like neighborhood grocery store than part of an $ 8 billion retail chain.
I personally love spending my time shopping at TJ’s because the retailer committed in 2008 to ensure that all of ingredients used in its vast private label-​suit of products are all GMO FREE!!!
The presence of TJ’s in any market certainly ups the ante of any natural nd organic products retailer — and I imagine grocers in different states like Missouri, Minnesota, Nebraska, Maine etc are feeling some pressures from just hearing the news that TJ’s might be moving into a state.
Shopper cards make me crazy everytime I go to my local TJ’s. My key chain is so cluttered with those Barcoded trinkets that I recently found myself trying to scan my Preferred Shopper Card at gym. As a recovering whole paycheck, I mean, Whole Foods Shopper, I’ve found that you can get nearly twice as much foods as TJ’s versus Whole Foods.
As I said, retailers can learn lot from TJ’S succeess and many small, independent players are already implementing many of the things that fuel shopper passion for grocers like TJ’s.
NOTE: TJ’S Fearless Flyer keeps you updated with helpful product information while providing some witty comic relief along the way. They admit that eating cheese makes them want to «Start singing Dickensian show tunes.» Would that be song that starts with «There’s nothing better than a friend, unless it’s a friend with chocolate?» There’s even a cartoon section. It ranks up there with New York Times.

I can’t think of one negative thing to say about this Trader Joes. I am in love with their products, it’s spacious and we never feel rushed when we are shopping.
The parking is more than sufficient. I have a favorite associate that always calls me by name and makes a point to ask how I’m doing.
Not only that, the staff obviously believes in the products, because they always let us know at checkout when we are purchasing something that they have tried and loved. When you ask them about an item, more often than not they’ve tried it and can offer you educated feedback.
It’s a rare occurrence to find something out of stock. My compliments to management. You can’t go wrong with this location.

You can’t go wrong with Trader Joes. This is a good-​sized Location as well. You will find a good selection of organic fruits and vegetables.
The workers here are all friendly and they’re a joy to talk to. They offer free coffee and they have a 99 cent card section.
They have really good buffalo jerky. Their strawberries and watermelon spears are always sweet. It’s crazy.

This review is long overdue! I love everything about TJ’s! Seriously, where do I begin? Their amazing salads that make it super easy for me to eat healthy? How about their insanely fresh produce? Let’s not even talk about their wine section!
Big fan of TJ’s. The customer service is awesome and I love that I can buy TJ’s brand with fresh ingredients!
Love love LOVE this place!

This is my favorite location, thus far. It’s located in a pretty big shopping center, so there is always parking. Also, I feel like even when it’s crowded the line moves super fast.
Store is clean, everything is organized and the employees are very helpful.
Don’t forget to get your free cup of joe in the back right of the store :)

I love TJs! I wouldn’t say it’s the best prices for certain things, but for the items I go there for they are very reasonably priced. The quality of foods you can get there is a step between whole foods and sprouts. This particular location is a nice size and easy to find my way around. I could recommend Trader Joe’s food all day too. The cookie butter, the Chicago style popcorn, the meats and cheeses, there is a mushroom truffle ravioli that’s to die for! And really all day long I could keep going. So check out this location!

Solid Trader Joes in the Valley. For the most part, if you’ve seen one, you’ve seen them all.
This small TJ’s is a typical size, perhaps a bit smaller than average. There is a decent amount of parking, although it’s usually pretty full when I drive by.
The selection is decent. Employees are nice and accommodating. Despite the fact it seems like an older location, it’s kept very clean and well maintained.
Watch for great offers on fresh flowers as you enter the door.
Solid location. 4 stars.
