Trader Joe’s Is One Step Closer to Opening in Uptown New Orleans | Eater New Orleans

"I also noted that another Trader Joe’s is in development in Mid-City at 2537 Tulane Avenue; recently filed building permits indicate it could be completed later this year, but Trader Joe’s refuses to confirm the store and developers have declined to comment." - Clair Lorell

Is a Trader Joe’s Coming to Uptown New Orleans? | Eater New Orleans

"At 2537 Tulane Avenue in Mid-City, recently filed building permits show a store of identical size to the Uptown proposal — 13,000 square feet — and suggest that this other potential location could be completed later this year, though Trader Joe’s has not confirmed that site either." - Clair Lorell

Came for the grand opening. I have a great feeling about this store. The employees are very passionate and ready to help you. Store is decently sized, organized, and clean. Everything in stock! I’m so happy that this new location is here so we don’t have to go to Metairie. Also, an extra star because all of the plants and flowers looked healthy. I got a Monstera there for $12.99. You can’t beat that! Blessings and good luck to this new Trader Joe’s <3

I have loved Trader Joe’s since my first visit to the original store in Pasadena, CA. From the speciality products to great pricing, this is a must shop store. Take your time, walk around and be patient. The TJ’s culture is laid back 😎 Favorites: frozen fruit for smoothies; corn/flower tortillas; strawberry & white chocolate chip waffle/pancake mix. Great fresh vegetables.

Love it!! Parking was great. Store was spacious and great selections. Staff was polite and loved that it had security. Everything was clean and organized. They had samples on a random Thursday at 2pm which was bit unexpected but a good unexpected. Definitely will make more trips to Traders Joe's now that I do not have to fight the traffic in Metairie.

We all know Trader Joe’s has great products, but what really stands out is how laid-back and friendly the staff are at the New Orleans and Metairie locations. It just makes shopping there a breeze. And of course, the fruit prices might be a bit higher than some other grocery spots, but the overall experience definitely makes up for it.

So glad they opened at this location. They are still stocking and the store is medium sized. I hope we have more options soon.

Even on a Sunday after the Saints game, this place is pretty crowded but still manageable to navigate in a reasonable amount of time. Parking lot seemed small and pretty full but we got parking very easily. Staff are eager to help you and checkout was fast. A handful things like heavy cream were out of stock but most things seemed available. Love this location!

Trader Joe's is so awesome that I was willing to make to take the trip from gentilly to vets. And while the crowds were still intense, what you get for the price made it all worth it. Now that we have this mid city location, all of my complaints are gone. Love this location and am so grateful to have easy access to a nice grocery store! Trader joes has hooked it up and helped me out getting home from long night shifts more than I can count. I'd give them 10000000 stars if I could!!!

New Orleans finally has a Trader Joe's of its very own. I'm thrilled that I no longer have to drive out to Metairie for my favorites, like their very affordable toasted sesame oil, quality low sodium soy sauce, sprouted tofu, fresh-squeezed OJ/tangerine juice, oat milk aaaaaand all that wine! This one is a bit different and I like that they don't have those wacky angled aisles. I don't love that they don't section wine according to region, but I'll live. They were out of a few of my favorites but that's the TJs way and the good thing is, I won't have to drive to Metairie to get frozen fruit bars anymore (god, those are good but melt so quickly). On that note, a plea to TJs to stock sorbets again. Ok, but the best part? I was shopping here at around 6pm and lo and behold the entire flower section was not bare. If you want fresh flowers in Metairie, you must get there at opening. It's kind of crazy. The parking lot may not be as big as the one in Metairie, but we found a spot. Not sure 6pm is prime time, but I know that a half hour before closing is most certainly not, so that's when I'll be planning to do my shopping. That TJs staff is as always, top tier. Not all heroes wear capes. Some wear hawaiian print shirts.

Love that the newest TJs is close to my work. And the parking lot is bigger than it seems. While this store is smaller (according to the news) than the Metairie store, it doesn't feel it. One of the workers said that they have less liquor at this shop but that's fine with me. Lots of fresh produce and TJ branded items. Minus one star because there are still a lot of empty shelves but that's because the store is too popular and they stock constantly. Maybe when the uptown store opens this will be better.

Everyone that knows me, knows that I do not play behind TJs. Their snacks are top-tier. This location opened a month ago but I had not been because I wanted to give it a little time. Well today, that time was up! Upon entering the store, I was a little lost because the layout is not like the Metairie store. I took my precious time going down each aisle. Pros: Aisles at this location are a bit wider than Metairie. Employees are nice. Customers here actually say "excuse me." Parking lot is great. Security guards are at the door and near the cheeses. Cons: I think the prices for some items here are a little higher than Metairie. Metairie store has more items/ things I shop for but an employee told me that they were working on that. Overall, I am glad that TJs has decided to build more stores in our area and I am looking forward to the Uptown location. I hope this addition has eased the crowds at the Metairie location. Bring one to the Bestbank please .

First, staff at this location are exceptionally kind. They also have security guards throughout to make you feel safe. But starting with the parking... everyone in NOLA does not drive a prius, and the spaces are suffocatingly small. Before parking we noted how many people were trying to squeeze into spaces. I'll add, DO NOT go on a weekend. I was playing bumper cars with jogging strollers and humans alike. Stock is well maintained, but you might have to play Twister just to reach your milk. I might try this location again - on a weekday.

The store is clean, well organized, and fully stocked. Security was there, so I felt comfortable and safe the entire time. The employees were not friendly, they were not rude, but don't expect excited friendly behavior. Lol. Listen, I'm not that familiar with Trader Joe's, so I was a little skeptical about buying their oatmeal (because I really love oatmeal), but I tried it yesterday and baby...... it is DELICIOUS! Lol.

Not much to say, but this is another great Trader Joe's and it's conveniently located on Tulane Ave. They have all the products we all know & love and plenty of parking!

I've been a regular at this TJ's since the first day they opened. I'm there weekly and I'm happy to say it's pretty consistent with the Metairie location so I don't have any reason to venture out that way. This location is much closer to my house, which saves me so much time. Shoutout to Jose, who just got promoted to manager. The employees are great and make it that much more enjoyable to shop here.

I am quickly becoming one of those people that nerd out about Trader Joe's. Biggest wins, the parking lot and the prices. It's easy to get to, and quality items that change with the season that won't break the bank. At a time when groceries are at an all time high, it's convenient to have a place where I can buy things that can easily be transformed into a variety of meals. Add bonus items like fresh flowers and economy priced wine and beer, what's not to love?

New Orleans' very first Trader Joe's! What a treat! The parking lot is spacious with plenty of parking slots. At less than one week old, my shopping experience was very nice! The store was clean and generally well-stocked with several security guards on-site. I did see a couple of produce, refrigerated, and frozen items that looked like they needed to be replenished, but it was overall nicely stocked. I saw one crew member helping a customer, and the person who checked me out was super friendly! I will say, something about the store is lacking that Trader Joe's...sparkle, lol. I've tried to put my finger on it; it could be because the aisles are straight, it feels like your average grocery store. Maybe they just need to slant the aisles and turn the music up a bit...Get us in the mood to spend our money, lol. And have a couple more crew members out on the floor greeting customers and being available for questions...I believe it would enhance the shopping experience! The store is a wonderful addition to our community, and I hope it remains well-maintained.

Came here to this new location instead of going all way to Metairie. Very nice, clean. A little bit smaller I think but still has the same items. The employees were nice and helpful.

I'm a new patron to Trader Joe's new location on Tulane , which is a 2-3 block walk from my apt! The store is clean & bright ! Every isle has a variety of healthy foods! Majority of the prices are comparable to big box stores! The cashier's are so diverse and sweet!

I wasn't completely sold on this new Trader Joe's location just yet, but I do love that it's the first one planted in New Orleans proper. For nearby residents, it's more convenient than driving to Metairie. I stopped by just three days after opening, and it showed-- an employee mentioned not everything had been stocked yet, and the shelves reflected that. The vibe felt a bit more Rouses than Trader Joe's, which caught me off guard. Still, I'm a loyal fan, and I'll definitely swing back once the "new store" kinks settle.

We got everything we needed at Trader Joe's. The staff was very friendly and helpful. We really enjoyed this store.
