Trader Joe’s

As a SF native it is easy to get spoiled with the abundance of healthy food choices. I noticed almost immediately that these Brentwood/​Antioch ’ folks’ love meat, fast food and drive thru Starbucks. lol Thank God, I found this Trader Joes! The staff is friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. I shop here at least once a week.

favorite place to get groceries!

So let me tell you, I have never had a poor experience here. The staff are friendly and highly accommodating they offer to assist you without the pestering energy. If your food item isnt satisfactory they exchange them with no problems. The store is clean and constantly stocked with fresh baked goods and produce. The only minor issue is the parking as this location shares with nearly 5 major businesses. However u can shop at the craft store next door, grab the babies something from toys r us, grab a coffee from Peets and if you are hungry there are several food places in the next shopping center across from this location.

I loooooove trader joes! Great place to shop! I get all my groceries here. It is cheaper than people say, and they have so many goodies as well! I love the thin dark chocolate pretzels! They are so yummy!

This is one of the better Trader Joe’s.
Most Trader Joe’s are in areas where they charge for grocery bags. Charging for grocery bags is a money-​making scam pushed by the Grocery Manufacturer’s Association (GMA), the same group that has been teaming with Monsanto to keep it illegal to label genetically modified foods (GMO). GMA and GMO.
This Trader Joe’s provides bags.
Like all Trader Joe’s… This store has a sort of thing on prices. Things like oatmeal cost more than Wal-​mart. However organic items cost less than Walmart. The best value organic milk at Wal-​mart is $ 6.59 for a gallon while it is $ 5.99 a gallon here. Also I can get organic corn here. All corn in the USA not labelled organic is GMO corn, which is not only sprayed like crazy with pesticides, but it is genetically engineered to produce pesticides, which make it insafe to eat. Rodents won’t touch GMO corn. When I eat GMO corn, it gives me severe diarrhea. When I ate corn as a child, I was fine because it wasn’t GMO back then. Well I get organic corn here, which is a really good price, under $ 2, and I don’t get diarrhea from it.
Their brussel sprouts are a really good price. They are 1 pound for $ 1. Normally it’s $ 3 for a pound minimum at other stores.
They also have «tea tree oil» bath soap. If you want to know why that is good, Google «demodex», little mites live on everyone’s faces and tea tree oil gets rid of them.

Best grocery store!!! It’s the right size for me. Always clean and net. They have coffee/​fruit water always available to customers. They have international stuff from all over the world. Very special stuff that you won’t find in any other grocery store out there. Big variety of cheeses, nuts, wine etc. Kosher stuff, organic fruit/​vegetable and other groceries. The staff always helpful with any questions I have and very friendly. You’ll find the prices for organic stuff are cheaper than other stores too. The line at the cashier is quick too!

Great choices, including organic :), and great workers. Everyone is very friendly and helpful.
I love the samples which have introduced me to many things I liked that otherwise I would have not have even thought of buying.
I do most of my shopping here weekly.
Thanks TJs!

Excellent service today! Thanks to Derrick for the recommendations, and the laugh at the check out! I always shop here and everyone is always so friendly and great to me.

Visited this location for the first time. It’s clean and well presented. They have good quality of produce, yummy baked goods (TJ’s brownie and shortbread cookies), bread, meat, wine. This store is a little small but easy to find items which I enjoyed with my family esp. if you are in rush. All and all, very pleasant experience and will shop here often.

Always clean and friendly service. Usually have everything in stock, they will check in back for you if the don’t have it out.

The prices are reasonable and the store is clean.
I am always able to find what I came in for and they have great prices.
5 star customer service.

I love this grocery so much. They have an awesome selection (literally everything you could imagine), it’s always fresh, and the cashiers are SOO NICE. The signs and labels on things are always really witty and funny. There’s also a really awesome tasting counter in the back, and more than once what we’re having for dinner has been decided by what’s at the counter because it’s always so good.
*Only downside is that it’s not cheap, skits not really ideal for everyday groceries.

This Trader Joe’s location is not the least bit impressive. It’s a tough call for me on the review since the staff is super friendly and helpful but I cannot give a better review when my experience here has been that they too frequently run out of know popular food items. It would be more acceptable if I were talking of perishables, but such is not the case. I give three stars, which means it’s A-​OK, for the sake of the staff.

Not only do I like coming here to shop, but so does my son! He loves the mini shopping carts and helping me put groceries in it. He’s amazing :)
Anyways, back to the review. This place is clean and nice. I can always find what I’m looking for. The cashiers are nice. I’ve never tried any of their samples because there’s never any whenever we walk by?
Customer service is awesome. If I need help, I’ll ask for assistant and every time they show me where the item is. The only problem I have about this Trader Joe’s is… the parking lot. Always packed Lol.

I love this Trader Joe’s!!! It’s a bit smaller than the one I used to go to when I lived in Huntington Beach, but they still have a great selection. I love how you can definitely see the way the seasons change with the different selections of food & flowers that they stock.
Their organic veggie selections are great! I have NEVER had any problems with buy any of their veggies here. The prices are also very reasonable!
The staff is very friendly & very helpful. I’m always approached and asked if I need help or if I’m finding everything I need. And they ask without being pushy & like they really mean it. One time I was seriously wandering around. I was looking for ginger. I know it had to be with the veggies, but I couldn’t find it anywhere! Then an employee who was stocking a shelf, asked me if I was looking for something (Probably because she saw me pass her by like 3 times! Hahaha) I told her ginger, and then she said, «Oh it’s right here.»… It was like 10 feet away from me. She said don’t worry, it’s kind of hidden & in a weird place.
Love coming here! Love the prices! Love the food! Love the staff!

Love this place. Always fresh fruit and salads. Lots of organic/​low fat products here as well. Staff is friendly and consistent.

Conveniently located next to restaurants so you can grab lunch/​dinner before shopping for grocery. I love shopping here. The aisles are always clean and they always have enough of the merchandise I need. The Employees are very friendly and plenty of employees around if you need help. The things I buy:
*meat
*veggies
*toothpaste
*psyllium husk
*marinara sauce
*treats
Warning: the parking lot is packed and insane during weekends around lunch time.

I absolutely LOVE this store. Their staff (every single one) goes above and beyond the call of duty to get what you need. I was looking for one item and literally 3 separate employees went out of their way to find it. When one said they don’t have it, the other said let’s double check. The 3^rd one said he was going to check their system and I was amazed how they cared. THEY ALWAYS DO. I feel at home when I walk in and they make it a pleasant experience. I am a regular customer and will always be :)
Their products and prices are awesome as well. I recommend this store to all.

So what’s not to like about Trader Joe’s?
I haven’t been a regular shopper at Trader Joe’s but as of lately I have. Granted you do pay more for there, but they have all quality food. Their service is always friendly and my kids love pushing the small shopping carts. I love their popsicles and ice cream section because they have some unique stuff, like the cheesecake ice cream sticks and their three color popsicles. They’re smaller size are perfect for kids and a late night snack without feeling too heavy.
Few weeks ago I stopped by here and was pondering on buying some bread sticks that my kids wanted. One of the female associates came up and started telling me how good sticks were and before I knew it, she ripped open the bag and let my kids try it. I of course turned around thinking I was on a hidden camera prank or something. She laughed and said it’s okay and that with most of their products, they ‘ll let you try it if you ask.
They also have a sampling stand that my daughter would just run up and of course their staff is always accommodating.
This is one of the BEST service personnel I’ve come across. Everyone seems happy and always willing to help or stop by and greet you.

Great store just as Trader Joes has always been. I love the variety of items and the prices are for the most part reasonable, some more so than others, for the quality you are getting.
The reason I didn’t give 5 stars is because I really feel that there produce section, mainly fruit could use some serious attention. The variety is lacking and several items I looked at were way over ripe. Kinda gross the grab a piece of fruit and it’s all squishy, not something you expect when shopping.
