Trader Joe's

We have been coming to this trader Joe's for 20 years. Everyone is so nice and helpful. Bruce was our cashier today and he was very kind and funny. He bagged all my items with care and was just so pleasent to talk to. There is a reason I only come to this trader joes.

Really nice clean store. It has a typical Trader Joe's layout. There is also plenty of parking available since it's in a strip center. I found the employees to be very nice and helpful. Great store for food options.

This is possibly the friendliest store I have EVER been in. I am a retail guy for 45 years. Everytime I walk I to this location the employees are happy, smiling, joking, interacting with each other and most importantly helping customers with ANYTHING they may need. I got persiannly walked across the store to find the new location for crackers. I went in this morning and was very warmly greeted by a young lady filling a display at the front. Her eyes literally lit up and a smile across her face when she saw me, or other customers come past her. I told my with I should fill out an application as this id definitely the kind of culture that breeds success.

I go to Trader Joe's all the time and everyone that works there has always been wonderful, but yesterday I had the best experience. The cashier was so kind. When she saw that I was having a rough day she bought me one of the waxed amaryliss plants I had in my cart to cheer me up. Her kindness turned my day around.

The cashiers double scan my items every-time and I end up losing money! It adds up! I have to double check my receipt every time now! And be very careful when checking out instead of enjoying the experience. Maybe less talking and more focusing on doing your job! The young people that work there are usually pretty friendly (some aren’t) but the older folks that work there I’ve noticed give a lot of attitude as if it’s an inconvenience if I ask for help. Lastly, please restock when the store is closed not when we’re shopping. They don’t care if you want something they’re blocking and they’ll totally ignore you. Please retrain and make it a more friendly place. Thank you.

I absolutely love going to trader Joe's. I get things that I can't find in other stores. It's like a field trip to me. Everything is always so fresh and so amazing. I recommend trader joels to anybody. I absolutely give it a five star

Everything selling is great and healthy but customer services are sometimes bad. Example was one time a young guy at the cashier counter once asked if I needed a bag for the 4 items I bought. Duh! I ended up sharing the 2 of the 4 items with my wife. So lazy! Another time was a young girl trying to start a conversation and I was tired that day and not saying much. The unfriendliness then showed on her face. Come on, I was there just to shop and pay my groceries and get out. A smile from you is good enough, thanks!

Trader Joe's always a great shopping experience. The employees are always smiling and polite. So many vegan, dairy free and gluten free options. Always a beautiful selection of flowers. Local IPA and huge selection of wines. Very clean and organized. Check out the Trader Joe's Newsletter for new items .

UPDATE: Now, I finally have a Trader Joe's very close to me! I've been there several times already and it just opened. It's just as amazing as their other locations I used to visit. Awesome service and selection in a beautiful store! Address: 14770 W. McDowell Road, Goodyear, AZ 85395 Location: Goodyear Civic Square (GSQ), near the intersection of McDowell Road and Bullard Avenue Hours: 8 a.m. to 9 p.m. daily Opening Date: November 7, 2025

Love this new Trader Joe's location. It is so much easier to get to and shop. The store is large and stocked full of all your favorites and more. I love the unique food options that you can only get here. The staff is extremely helpful (even checking when stuff will be back in stock) and friendly. The store gives off a sophisticated but country vibe which is so fun. I absolutely love their chocolate espresso beans, fun snacks and cookie butter. I will be back.

Very nice store at this new location always busy and makes people happy to be shopping there

It's pumpkin spice time! It smells good here at Traders. All the goodies are here and all the pumpkins big and small. Good prices too. While they last. Come check it out!

Today was a great trip to Trader Joe's! It was busy but we easily found our Granola aisle and walnuts and sunflower seeds. All cashier lines were open and two ready for us, with no waiting as well. We were in and out within 10 mins. The food at Trader Joe's is always great quality. We love how the stores are set up. Very reminiscent of old grocery stores inside from when we were kids. Love it!

Trader Shmo's. Always busy, always the same peace, love, broccoli and kale crowd! Joes carries good seasonings, nuts and a variety of quality oils and frozen items. They had pink guava spread/jam on sale for $2.99. Was intrigued! Was this Taiwanese pink guava, I wondered? Looked at the back label: "MADE IN CANADA". Guavas grow in Canada? Who knew?! LOL.

This Trader Joe's is brand new and I'm so excited! It's located in a shopping plaza with lots and lots of parking AND the shopping aisles are HUGE!!! You can actually fit with your cart and have space to breathe and go around other shoppers! I went in Sunday morning and it wasn't too busy. The door greeter said they had just moved to this new location a week ago and you could tell they were still adding the finishing touches. But they had all of the usual things and as usual, great prices! I love coming here for fun snacks and food! I

So to start off this store has little to nothing on the shelf's and the stocking/floor associates are atrocious and completely cold and rude when did excuse me become a thing of the past?? Not a large selection of much it's more like a corner store than a actual Trader Joe's full store However I will say this the ONLY reason for a 5 star is because front end/cashier LYNDSEY (From Colorado) was beyond words kind, and had a very up lifting and welcoming demeanor and stance, talked and made our horrible day and shopping experience a pleasant one. Was nice to see the younger generation actually going above and beyond for customer service.

The only thing wrong with these classic @traderjoes four-packs of almond croissants and chocolate croissants, found in the freezer section ($5.49), is that you have to plan ahead by 9 hours. In all other aspects, these are perfectly delicious and so easy to prep and bake. Sometimes I need a croissant STAT. For all other times, keep some of these in your freezer. Trader Joe's had some beautiful tulips out this week. I also picked up some organic Sencha green tea. This will keep us breakfasting very happily for a while.

Love finding a Trader Joe's when we travel... feels like we are home just a little bit. This one is pretty big and man it is a busy place! Not like normal busy but like the Beatles are coming busy... Service is good as always and prices are fair.

Love Trader Joe's! The staff are friendly and seem interested in the conversations they initiate. I love their fresh flowers and products! I just wish tone was close to my home, but the drive is worth it!

This location is great. It helped that we came 30 minutes before closing and our hotel is right next to it. Well I just wanted to say thank you to the checkout guy , Seth is the name we have according to our receipt. Well Seth was super cool with our son. My 2 year old is super shy so when Seth offered our son a fun little task to do it was great seeing our son actually do it without an issue. Seth also offered him a lollipop. Store is super clean and organized and the employees are really cool. Definitely coming here next time we are in the area.

Felt like I was home! Trader Joe's is just the best. All their fruit and veggies are beautiful. Meat and seafood look so fresh! You might pay a little more for what you're getting but the quality is fantastic. Plenty of parking and staff inside ready to help you.

I've always been a fan of TJ's, and this one lives up to my expectations. I will say, the only downsize of this and most TJ's is their parking lots are never big enough, haha. This location is well stocked of items and friendly employees. I love Trader joes products and their fun seasonal ones too. I don't think I've been in here when it wasn't busy, except later at night. However, they keep the lines moving, so it's never too bad of a wait. Great location!

Their panko breaded tilapia is very dry. Not the greatest. However their fish nuggets are great

Are you an artificial Christmas tree person but WANT the smell of pine and Christmas? Get to TJs and buy a candle that smells like cedar balsam for that fresh tree scent! PS you'll never have to go seek out your own customer service, as this place is top notch for its customer service.

Huge kudos to this Trader Joe's near Arrowhead Mall in Arizona. The mini totes that they released a couple of days ago - I have seen on social media the huge lines and people grabbing the bags in other cities. This store was so organized and even though there was a long line out the door right at the time they said the bags would drop the line moved quickly and I had my bags in less than 10 minutes. The employees were very friendly quick and efficient passing the bags out and the check out line was also very quick. Well done Glendale!

It's Trader Joe's. Fun vibe. Friendly staff. High quality products. Lots of fresh and frozen pre made meals. Grab and go meals perfect for a quick lunch. I like that disposable forks are available for the fresh meals, but not attached to each one. This way, if I already have a fork I am not wasting one, and one is available if I don't. Frozen section has all kinds of meals. Trade Joe's has always had a great selection of vegetarian and vegan options. Trade Joe's is the place to get speciality cheese. Especially great selection for making a cheese board. Interesting options at great prices. If pairing that cheese with wine check out what Trader Joe's has to offer. Drinkable wines at affordable prices. Their selection of fresh cut and potted plants/flowers is usually fresh and beautiful. On this last trip I picked up a succulent. Maybe next time I will go for the lavender. This location is on the smaller side, even for a Trader Joe's. For us, shopping here is more to accentuate the week's shopping.

The staff are always willing to help. The staff are always so polite and friendly, makes spending money more of a pleasure. The food quality is great, but skip the produce and bakery items, but they work in a pinch. Best frozen food section.

This Trader Joe's got so many things right during COVID. Allowing only so many customers in at a time. Sanitizing carts, offering hand sanitizer and face masks enforced! Love it! Yes, I had to stand in line but, it went fast! Get in and get out. So much selection and friendly service! Store is clean and well stocked. My only complaint? No cookie butter! I'm from Hawaii and everyone that works at Trader Joe's knows when people from Hawaii shop. Hint? The wagon is full of stuff for Omiyage! I must say I picked up some usual suspects. Everything but the bagel, everything but Elote, Chile Lime seasoning, rubs, Aioli mustard and so much more! Cookies and beauty products were also on the list. Gotta say you gotta go!

The person that checked me out was amazingly friendly and efficient. As was the guy who came and helped bag. The man that I had asked a question of was a crab ass. As usual. Big ample guy with a blue shirt and I went to ask him a question and didn't see a lady on the other side of him because he's large. All I did was smile and say oh, there's one on each side. I was then silent. And then just stood waiting. He thought he had to kind of scold me because he thought I was interrupting. Made a point of putting his finger up and saying just a minute. Answered the lady's question about where was a lemon or something and then proceeded to offer even more info to her like how his wife uses that in a recipe and more it seemed as a way of making sure I waited. Which I silently was. Then turned to me with a completely smile-free face. I told him that all I said was oh there's one on each side. I wasn't trying to interrupt the other lady's question. He showed me what I wanted to find and maintained his crab ass demeanor the whole time. This is not the first time that I've encountered this "friendly" guy. Everyone else is either friendly or neutral. when I saw the lady on the other side of him, I just said oh, and smiled at her, and she smiled at me. My momma taught me manners. This guy doesn't need to.

Today was my first time at the new location by Boot Barn and Once Upon a Child and it was awful. I've been coming to this location prior to the relocation for atleast 18 years now, and will now consider driving further to avoid this place. The new layout is so overwhelming and although a much bigger space, people are more in the way. I don't know if it's because this new location recently opened, but its almost seemed like people were using it as some special, new, landmark, not an everyday grocery store that I've utilized Trader Joe's as. Anyways, what prompted this review was my beyond awful interaction with Katie (As per the receipt). I just mentioned to her, in a sad way and in no way confrontational, that I miss the old location. She gave me the nastiest most uncomfortable look, looked away, and said "That's fine". That was the end of the interaction and I had close to $200 in groceries so it lasted about 5 minutes. Awkward silence. It's like I offended her, personally. Seeing her reaction, I made it a point to literally say, word for word "I still love Trader Joe's and will continue to shop here". Again, silence. After I paid, she gave me the receipt and said "Here you go" and looked away. No have a good night or anything. I've never, and I mean never, had any unpleasant interactions with anyone at Trader Joe's, until this lady came along. A guy came to help her bag, and I'm sure I looked beyond uncomfortable with my head down, and he didn't say a word to me. I don't know if it's stress due to this being a new location, but the staff were really unpleasant all around. Literally zero hellos from any staff members and one staff member was watching me like a hawk as I was looking at mandarines. Ugh, awful, awful time! Im writing this review in my car, right after this occured. I cringe just thinking about it.

I LOVE Trader Joe's. I shopped here with my parents as a kid and now bring my kids. I know that you can find a lot of the foods at a different chain grocery store but everything I can buy here I do! The family loves the Mac n cheese and I like getting my Ezekiel bread here as it's not frozen and it's way cheaper than the other big grocery chains. The employees are always really friendly and the prices are great. The store is clean and they are cleaning carts and providing hand sanitizer before entering. I will continue shopping here as I always have and continue to find new goodies to try out!

A typically nice Trader Joe's. Very friendly and helpful staff makes it a feel-good place to shop. Shelves are well-stocked and the store always seems to have the staple items I'm looking for, though they were out of a particular Syrah / Granache red I was after. Not the end of the world. The usual bottleneck of shoppers stopping in the aisles but that's to be expected, I suppose.

Trader Joe's. Need I say more? This is one of the smaller-sized TJ's I've been to in awhile, but even with minimal space, they're still packed with delicious goodies! I can't define all the things that I love about Trader Joe's. I mean... I can, but none of us have time for that. Simply put: Trader Joe's is the best. From the fresh produce... to the endless varieties of cheeses... the frozen food aisle that NO ONE can pass up... basically, everything in the store is top-notch. I can always find something to either bring to a party, make for dinner, or snack on while watching a movie. The choices are endless. Yes, I wish this location was larger and packed with more goodness, but realistically... I'm just thankful it's somewhat nearby. And as usual, the staff are always amazing!

This location isn't as sexy or large as our Surprise location, but it is just as special. They have a cute pumpkin display outdoors that they don't offer in our area. The products and employees make Trader Joe's extra special. Tonight I met someone who bought our Wii and we did some shopping while in the area. Trying their Argan oil, picked op some marula oil that I was running low on. Oh some sunflower seeds for my husband for work. I was hoping this location had their chicken and beef tamales but no go. I love their new bags!

Five star Christmas experience like a special present just for me. I know I sound a little dramatic but this year with all the delivery and lack of Inventory Pandemic problems, visiting so many Trader Joe's in my home State of Washington not finding what I see other people purchasing on Instagram, then finding this gem of a Christmas laden, inventory filled treasure trove. And all the Crew members, as always in the iconic chain, so friendly and helpful. It just put a spring in my step and a big smile on my face, warming my heart 12/14/2021

Was thrilled to come to Arizona as I knew they would have a Trader Joe's nearby. So after my Barre class I headed over to this location in Arrowhead. The shopping centers has very poor lighting after hitting the curb with my rental car I head for the door. Than out of the corner of my eye I see the massive line waiting to get into the building on the other side of the building. I am used to lines from the one I go to at home. So I get on the line and it moves up rather quickly. All with markings on the ground so we can social distance. They have tons of flowers, plants , holiday wreaths and small Christmas trees to greet you so you can shop while you wait. Truthfully it didn't look to appealing in the pitch black so I passed. They had orchid plants priced about double of South Florida so I passed. Than I follow the floor arrows and start looking around. The layout is very different than my store but some what similar you go from bread to produce. I head to the cheeses and pick up a couple of Unexpectedly Cheddar as well as a mushroom Brie. Than on to the wine but than I see a long line wrapping through the wine for the registers. What was I thinking coming here two days before Thanksgiving. So I get the requested four bottles of red one of each varietal including a Nouveau Beaulois. You always know it's Thanksgiving when you see this. Than on to crackers but I can't find the one with sea salt that is in my Trader Joe's so I pass. Than Dark Chocolate no Valrhona like my store so I get two Trader Joe Brands one from Belgium the other from Switzerland. I also get a can of snack mix, chocolate covered pretzels and gummy's in a bag for my flight home. Once I was ready to check out miraculously no line. The cashier was very nice however put everything in one bag. Luckily I am strong gave the guy the cart at the entrance and headed to the car.

The location tends to get busy as it's in the closest one for who knows how many miles . There's is plenty of parking and plenty of shopping carts and hand baskets. The Employees are nice and welcoming .They do practice social distancing here . The times I have been here they monitor how many people can enter so just be prepared in case they have you waiting outside to enter the establishment

Trader Joe's got me again lol Since being the last person on Earth to visit one I feel it's my duty to go often now. I was shopping at the Mall today a d noticed this location nearby so decided to stop a d check it out before headed to another store. The place was clean, organized and employees friendly. I picked up a few more items and was on my way. Definitely a fan

Always Friendly Staff I don't visit Trader Joe's as often as I like however, I do go once in a while when I want something new. The store was well stocked and clean. The fresh fruits and vegetables always look great. One of my favorites is the fresh section of Ready-to-Eat goods such as wraps, salads, and potato salad. The tellers & other employees are always very helpful & congenial. Store is easy to navigate and I love the conscientious gourmet offerings.

This TJ's is always well stocked and clean. The employees are super friendly and helpful as well. Love their fresh flowers and plants! The little shopping carts are a huge hit with the kiddos

Sometimes I love TJ when everything goes well during my shopping experience and other times I dread going in here. This location always seems to be busy no matter when I stop by. I wish they offered self-check out, I prefer to get what I need and get out quickly with minimal contact with other people. I was foolish to stop in on a Sunday morning, when it was swarming with mobs of shoppers. When the parking lot is full, then that pretty much means it's busy inside too. Long lines, lots of people everywhere, it's just too much for my anxiety to handle sometimes. Many products are unique, but often you need to check to see what products might be on the recalled list. I love their produce, it's tasty and priced well. Great prices on eggs too. Great prices on their bottled water and various beverages. Sometimes, a few employees are friendly and then there are some that seem like they don't want to be there. It's never really consistent at this location. There is a tall guy that works there all of the time, I don't know his name, but he's friendly and helpful, I usually go to his register at check out. I didn't today and went to some other cashier's line. I like to bag my own groceries and most cashier's will even thank you for doing that instead of standing there just watching them. Some random back up employee appeared after they rang the bell and she wouldn't let me finish bagging my items, plus I received a BONUS lecture from her when I picked up my bagged water by the paper bag handles too. I get treated WAY BETTER at Wal-Mart and no one bothers me there. SMH. I might start looking into using grocery pick up at Sprouts or Wal-Mart just to avoid having to deal with people. Rant over.

This review has nothing to do with the product. This store has a theft problem. I went shopping there on 1/11/25 at around 4:10pm. I had my phone in my purse, and I took it out at 4:30pm to check messages and placed it back in my purse. At 4:40pm I noticed my phone wasn't there, and searched everywhere. The employees said that no one has brought the phone to them. My husband went on google maps, and found it was turn off. Another lady at the same time said her phone was missing, and when I talked to a cashier, she said that it's been an issue in the area. My sister even told me that an employee told her to be careful with her bag, because they have had issue with customers stuff getting stolen in the store. They told me that they don't have access to their cameras footage. This store has known they've had a theft issue even when they were at the old location, and they haven't done anything to change it. If you still decide to got to the location, keep your affects close to you, otherwise I would avoid going to this location all together and find a safer Trader Joes to go to until this location bumps up their security; otherwise your stuff might get stolen at this Thieving Joe's.

Trader Joes is always amazing. I don't go as often as I'd like because its not close to me. Today I was dreading the experience just because of everything that's been going on with the Corona virus. I only went because my mom asked me to. When I got there it was about 3 in the afternoon and there was a line about 10 people deep outside waitingto go in, there was a limit on how many people could go into the store. I was shocked! I was literally in and out within 20-25 minutes. I was impressed! They had everything stocked and people stocking as we shopped, markers for everyone to stand at, they wiped down the carts each time a customer came out and also offered you a squirt of hand sanitizer. It was great! And I made sure to let them know they were doing a great job and thanked them. I will definitely be making more of an effort to come back more. Thank you Trader Joes staff.

I love coming here for specific fun items that you can't find in your typical grocery store. I love how friendly everyone is and how quick they are to help you and guide you to the right direction. My all time favorite thing to get from here is the Halibut for my fish tacos, the raisin bread and their delicious local salsas. Thank you Trader Joe's for making everyone feel welcomed when they walk in.

I love Trader Joe's! This location is about twenty minutes from me and I always leave happy. When I moved to Arizona last July, I was always bummed by how dirty and dark most grocery stores were. I love making a special trip out to Trader Joe's to help brighten my mood. I've bought plenty of plants from here that all survived (including a fiddle leaf fern!). I love all of the fun snacks, vegan options, and great produce. I never have to worry about the quality of produce here! The wine and beer selection is vast and cheap. They have so many fun treats and dips for outdoor gatherings. Great prices, kind staff, and CLEAN! Just go now - your friends and your self will thank you.

First of all, every single employee is outwardly friendly and helpful. Some definitely more than others, but all nonetheless. I never feel a burden asking for help! Secondly, one time I came in and asked if they had any spare product boxes I could use to help in an upcoming move. They didn't have any left that day, but went out of their way to get my name and number to come in the next morning for some. When I came back, the workers were expecting me and helped me get them to my car. Above and beyond and was such a blessing!

Let me start off by saying Trader Joe's has and still continues to be the only ones who really follow the cdc guidelines for grocery stores. No joke since Az got word of COVID and all the changes they did it right. The only allowing X amount of people in, sanitizing their hands out hands. Letting us see them all wiping down the carts. And for some reason our Trader Joe's was really never "out" of anything sure they set a limit on most items but they really they were always fully stocked minus that crazy TP outage that was all over. Lol I have been a Trader Joe's fan for as long as I can remember growing up and to this day it's still my fav place to shop for my produce and snacks. Sorry Trader Joe's the only thing i don't enjoy are any meats. But their seasonal amazing face products and hair products get me all the time!! There are tons of groups to join to let you know what's new and upcoming and what's being discontinued. Lately Trader Joe's has been having tons of great products tho. Thanks for keeping everyone safe and doing the best to keep us safe while food shopping.

Amazing customer service. Crew members are always happy to help and talk to you like they've known you forever. Favorite place to grocery shop.

I Went in for just two items and came out with four full grocery bags... soooo typical

Love this place...prices are awesome! Food quality is great. Lots of healty to choose from, highly recommend shopping here

Update!!! Scary!!! Wow. If you have to get groceries I highly recommend staying the heck away from Trader Joe's right now. The employees controlling entry have zero concept of social distancing and even when no one else is trying to get in or out still plant themselves in the middle of the door, dancing and partying and making it impossible not to pass by super close. Customers seem to think it's fine to come super close and even reach right over you if they just say they're doing it while they're doing it. Confusing back up of line where people smush together waiting for a register all down the last aisle. Employees planted at end of aisles get right in your face to ask if you need help. Employee directing people to registers also got super close, grabbed my cart and put her hands all over it. Really scary and I almost just walked out and left my cart. Always a friendly experience. This location can be a little busy, I understand why. Currently outside waiting for 8am open. Well stocked, clean and inviting. Even let me try their brand of "peanut m'n'm's for free! Will consistently return, I am sure.

If your looking for organic food and groceries this is the place. They don't have as much soaps & lotions as sprouts. They even have tofu.

The entire world doesn't celebrate Christmas. there are other cultures and religions out there that celebrate different holidays. I don't appreciate you saying "merry xhristmas" to me. Who are you to judge that I celebrate this day? also there is LOUD MUSIC playing which makes it incredibly difficult to shop so I left early and didn't get the other things I needed due to loud music.

Wonderful shopping experience. Superior products in a nice variety at fair prices, great customer service in a clean, well organized store.

Trader Joe's is always amazing. The staff at this location are soooo pleasant and helpful. Love shopping there.

i love this trader joe's, they always have everything in stock, and the cashiers are always nice and talkative, one time it rained really hard and they offered to help me walk to my car while they held an umbrella, amazing customer service and almost everything i've tried here is so good 8/10 you're going to like what you get

I always love Trader Joe's and this location is managing public health safety well. They have a clearly marked like with waiting points and are regulating how many people can come in at a time. My only complaint is the management of the check out line. They hug the like close to the wine aisle, so if you're even glancing at the wine it causes confusion of "who is or who is not" in line for check out. Some rope helping to divide that aisle would be appreciated.
