Trader Joe's
March 29, 2024

Trader Joe's is my favorite grocery store for its unique selection, affordable prices, and friendly atmosphere. The store's emphasis on organic and gourmet products sets it apart from traditional supermarkets. I enjoy exploring their diverse offerings, from international snacks to seasonal treats. The staff are always helpful and knowledgeable, making shopping at Trader Joe's a pleasure.

Some healthy choices at a relatively affordable price to be found, as long as you read the labels & shop carefully. The rest not so much. And that goes for the locations as well; most well run to accommodate the long lines & overcrowding. Their stores in NYC still succeed to make it a pleasant experience, mostly because of their exceptional employee to customer service. But do try to avoid their location in Queens, NY if you want the best of Trader Joe's. There you might find a different attitude towards their customers that seeps out from a few of their employees, to make you ask yourself why you bothered to shop there! Maybe new management?

This is the second time the crew members have asked me what disability I have that I need a service dog. They violate the ADA law and were trained to ask these questions. They also told me that if my dog is emotional support, they don't allow her. She was wearing an identifying Service Dog vest. It's mortifying having people stare when having your rights violated. I would not recommend Trader Joe's to anyone with any disability or service animal. Shame on them!

Warning Customers Beware! I was just robbed today at Trader Joe's in Philadelphia Pa. ***** The best that the management offered was to fault me and not their security! Wow thanks for that slap in the face. Will not be returning any time soon, shame on you and your approach to customer assistance. The best part of this is how they ganged up on my husband last summer while he waited for me at the front of the store. Due to his back injury he was not able to walk through the store and was accused of loitering while I shopped. After my experience today all I have to say is wow! Not so friendly and zero customer care. Thanks TJ

Watermelon Jerky
February 2, 2023

This is a review for the watermelon jerky only. I was on vacation and made plans to go to trader joe's since there isn't one here where I live. For the most part I love the products that they offer but there were a few things that I would suggest you not buy when you're there. The first one is the watermelon jerky. It is by far one of the worst things I bought from Trader Joe's. It's BAD! Tastes stale, flavor is off, texture is off and it had a slightly "wet" feel to it. It was gross. Something else you shouldn't buy from there is the pre-cut fruits in containers. I bought 4 of those and when we opened them up it was smelled like it was already rotting. The weird thing is that it looked ok. The fresh whole fruit was fine. By the way this was the Trader Joe's in San Jose area.

No Guac tonight
December 21, 2022

Bought a bag of tiny Haas avocados on a Monday; just the two of us and has always been plenty. Always delicious in the past.
Spouse cut them open two days later, and all were soft and rotten (see photo). Got blamed for inattention to viabiity; maybe, they were frozen along their way to the store: felt firm in the bag, but now right for the compost.

Had to eat the TJ Elote Dippers alone...We'll live but caveat emptor rules.

More Q-C, please.

Discussting
January 1, 2024

Trader joe allows dogs in the store sniffing on food products without any questions and they are not service animals.customers who are dog owners do not care about other people its is discusting to have a dog sniff on the food you are eating.health dept should fine dog owner and stores.they should regulate the situation better.dogs and animals in general carry lots of disease that can transmit to human.

Random acts of kindness
September 8, 2022

I experienced a random act of kindness at Trader Joe's in Wellington Florida today. My cashier (Nancy) realized I wasn't feeling very good. She asked me if I was alright and I told her I had a surgical procedure on Monday and had had a follow up appointment with my doctor today and needed a few items. She then turned to one of her associates and asked her to go get a small bouquet of flowers which she then gave to me and hopes I would feel better. She also had another associate (Clyde) who was helping her bag my items take my packages to my car for me. Thank you Trader Joe's for having such considerate and compassionate employees.

When I was close to checking out I realized that I wanted to buy bullion cubes. I caught the eye of a cashier who was about 10 meters away, and asked her "Do you have bullion cubes? " She responded"What "... I responded louder, as she didn't hear me " Do you have bullion cubes "... Her response was was, very tersely " Don't yell at me "
I said "I didn't yell at you, I yelled to you " She kept it up, repeating "Don't tell at me"

I found this encounter extremely inappropriate and very passive aggressive on her part. Maybe she thought she could bully a senior citizen... Maybe she was having a bad day... but there are no excuses for rude passive aggressive behavior. L
I'll always remember when I was younger, and working in my Uncle's drug store. I was rude to a customer, and I was fired... Best thing he could have done... a lesson in accountability... now individuals are rarely fired, and accountability has gone out the window.
