Trader Joe’s

This place is great for that quick stop for a gourmet dinner. They have a wide variety of specialty items to choose from all with superior quality. The organic kale here is a must if you’re a kale aficionado. The cheese selection is nice as well as the frozen food options. The breads selection could be better and make sure you watch the dates on it. The place is not big so that means you can navigate it pretty quickly and get all the things you need and a few things you don’t. Parking and logistics of this place can be challenging on weekends and I suggest visiting on a week night. They have awesome jerky in the back corner and I suggest getting at least one to feed the meat eater within. This place has a lot of a little and will leave you seeking some other items at other larger local grocery stores but has some things you just can’t find anywhere else and for that reason it’s a must visit. Make sure to tell them it’s your first time in.

Love TJ’s and this location is no different! It was crowded but, just the time of the year.

Love Trader Joes but this location only gets 4 stars because they are always running out of stuff! They only stock in the morning so anytime I try to grab a few things on my way home for work, the aisles look barren like it was the night before Thanksgiving… Ridiculous! May need to stock a little more often. Disheveled and picked over is no way to leave a store when there is still 4 hours + in the day. If you haven’t been to Trader Joes before you will love it, but if you have you will see what I mean! Great frozen food, great prices on wine, check your reciepts though if you bring your own bags. The last few times they have screwed up and double charged me for items.

We live in Cleveland Ohio but have 2^nd home in Cape Coral Florida. This is the only trader joes in Sw Florida so an hour drive. I went in early December to stock up for season. For early December (not prime Naples season) it was mobbed and the parking is terrible. I go to trader joes regularly (at least once a month) in Cleveland so I am very familiar with layout and products. I looked everywhere for their cocktail sauce. Another customer asked a sales girl for something and since she was one foot from me I started to ask where cocktail sauce was. She yelled at me, «I can only do one thing at a time! Ask someone else». The next sales person I saw looked to be about 18 and had no idea what cocktail sauce even was but said he would ask. By this time I was done shopping and didn’t feel like waiting further. Glad I only had to experience this place once. The cashier was nice that was a plus

Incredible selection of unique items. Many items are the trader joe brand, which are great. A few of my favorites are the zucchini fries, located in the frozen section, the chai tea latte powder, wine selection, and the pre prepared meals. A lot of reviewers mention the store is always crowded, which it is, but for very good reason. The product is definitely worth fighting the crowds and spending the extra time.

I love Trader Joe’s. I just wish they had one closer to downtown Fort Myers! It’s a small grocery store, but boasts a large variety of organic, vegetarian, and vegan foods. I’m a huge fan of the mini brie cheese wheels. They’re an awesome snack to pair with crackers and fruit preserves. I’d suggest trying some of their pre-​marinated meats. The curried steak and chimichurri steak are two of my favorites to pick up.
So…the main reason I go to Trader Joe’s is for the organic broccolini. I must admit that I have a slight (it’s not slight, it’s huge) obsession with the stuff. The cashier looked at me twice when she saw I was buying 5 packs of organic broccolini. You just can’t get the same quality at Publix (no offense Publix).

As others have mentioned, this place is above awesome! Healthy food at a budget friendly price. Though it is a bit drive for our family living near the Riverfront of Fort Myers, it is totally worth it to stock up on our favorite items.
They are a «kid-​friendly» grocery store. They have mini shopping carts for them to use, they do kid activities for them on the weekend and the staff always goes out of their way to acknowledge kids.
The grocery store is small but well organized. Lots of organic, whole grain, gluten-​free and vegetarian options. The produce is fresh and the meat is lean. The wine is good and cheap! And FREE COFFEE with a food sample always in the back. And they always have yummy, unique seasonal items!
Just be careful in the parking lot. It can be difficult to get in and out, especially during season.

I have to get some shopping in before the seasonal people come down. You have no idea how rude they can be. We love their money though.

I just love this place. The parking isn’t too scary for Naples. You’ll need to make sure you park where people don’t throw their carts– I found out the hard way as I came out one day and my car was surrounded with carts. I am guessing a few may have bounced off, but I didn’t see any noticeable scratches, so lucky me.
This store isn’t too big, but they seem to have everything. There are pre packed meals and lunches in the refrigerated section– all healthy and delicious. The fruit is very fresh, and the meat section always has some tasty item in there– like pesto marinated chicken breasts. mmmm…
Of course they are known for their awesome snacks. I try and stay away from processed and sugar coated items, but I do have a weakness for the dark chocolate covered orange sticks– seriously the best I ever had. There is a reason why they come in such a large container… and today I picked up some Pumpkin ice cream– tis the season! When I went through check out, the lady saw this and smiled– she must know how awesome it is. I’ll find out tonight! :)
There is free coffee in the back. Make sure you get some. It’s always tasty and a good pick me up for the drive home.
There is a huge aisle of wine and beer. I heard it’s a good selection. It looks interesting, that’s for sure.
The cashiers are always so very friendly, and treat you like a good friend. I love that. They seem genuine in their greeting and seem to like their jobs.

I would give four stars because I want to like this particular store more. The flowers upon arrival are pretty and I most always grab a bunch. The overall flow of the store when busy is an absolute nightmare. I find myself irritated with people backing up into me or blindsiding my cart or something foolish. I wish the produce was organic and very fresh. I rarely buy produce from TJ.
On three different occasions I had bought red wine that turned. I figured it was my poor choice, but then I realized. No, it’s their responsibility to stay on top of that. The folks that check out are always very friendly. The parking lot is also a nightmare, but then again most of Naples is during season. They have a few items I can not find anywhere else in Naples. The prices are far better as well.

Good employees, certain items are a bit pricey, love to see good food! The fruits are delicious! We bought some steaks and they were DELICIOUS as well!

So happy Trader Joe’s finally came to Naples! Can’t go wrong w shopping at Trader Joe’s. Reasonable prices, fun, healthy, inventive food stuffs. Healthy choices (and some tasty snack items). Employees are easy going and helpful. You can taste anything you want! Just ask and an employee will open a box or bag for you.

All fruits and veggies were fresh and in good shape. No smashed fruits and no bruised vegetables. Great place to pick up flowers for your girlfriend! Beautiful and so reasonably priced. Wish these stores were more popular up north where I’m from!

I love TJ. I love their products. I love their produce. I love their customer service. I love their wine. Unfortunately they don’t sell liquor here, like in CA, but that’s because of FL laws and regulations. I won’t hold that against them. I love their household and beauty products. I think you get it. I just love, love, love TJ!!!
In my mind TJ is 5 stars. I just can’t get myself to give them 5 stars because of this locations horrible parking lot. Every time. Doesn’t matter what time. The lot is packed and people are circling. Snow birds are unrighteously parked and/​or waiting in inappropriate spots, blocking lanes. Or even worse, taking up 2 parking spaces, like there is an abundance of parking?
In addition to their disastrous parking situation, the lines inside are always long and extending I to the actual aisles. People try to accommodate by scooting this way or that way so the actual shoppers can maneuver through the aisles but really? Structural changes need to be made. Inside and out.
Nonetheless, I continue to return and will continue to return because I LOVE TJ!!!

I love Trader Joe’s, always. This is not the biggest location, but I’m a fan. It’s fun, it’s quirky, the staff is goofy-​lovely (see also: generously laugh at my jokes, and groan appropriately at the food puns my Mum and I swap) and everything is really fresh (as evidence by staff on the floor pulling things that aren’t).
There’s a rotating list of TJ favourites (check their online flyer for a heads up) but here are some recent scores:
— cowboy caviar in a jar: great condiment with some corn and beans
— pineapple and double fire-​roasted salsas
— blue cheese and toasted pecan dip (WHATTUP)
— dark chocolate and speculoos cups
— hot smoked salmon
I also love a lot of their staples: pizza dough, tomato sauce, pre-​cooked roasted chicken with only (fancy that) chicken, olive oil and seasoning as ingredients.
It’s just always a fun experience at TJs.
One thing I’ll caution: they have a great selection of wine, but prices aren’t *always* competitive.
Unilocal note: ’tis the season for candy cane Jo-jo’s (see: Oreo-​style sandwich cookies!)

Who doesn’t love Trader Joe’s??! If you have not experienced healthy, but fun food shopping, I would definitely spend hard earned money on these quality groceries. Better yet, I’ll spend it for you. Buyers beware: each item adds up if you are not aware of what is going into your basket. My goal is to hit below the hundo mark, but it’s tough! There are aisles and aisles of everything I want to try. The psychological effect that Trader Joe’s has on a shopper with its fancy shmancy mom and pop type of no name brand items with «buy me» colors has this evil, but entirely rewarding strength. This Joe guy says «Buy me. I’m good for you» every time I turn into a new aisle. Joe speaks the truth. Every product that I have tried — from produce to trek mix — is top notch quality.
I truly enjoy the size and flow of this place. Aisles are laid out on the bias, and each aisle is designated to a specific genre to the artistry of grocery shopping. When you do a zig zag and defeat your OCD tendencies, the end of your route will lead you to the three buck chuck. Three dollar wine is good for you. Sadly, I have a friend whose only purchase was from this section… in large quantities.
So, here are some of my must have faves: Organic Tuscan Kale, goat cheese, any type of hummus, any of their nut mixes, peanut butter chocolate cupcakes, anything in their organic produce section, organic milk, frozen garlic naan, frozen chinese pork buns, frozen green beans, curry simmer sauce, any of their juices like their unfiltered cranberry juice, ginger cookies, and dark chocolate covered berries.
Room for improvement would be in their bakery section. Every visit, I feel like their bread items are not as fresh.
If you can deal with parking lots in season, it’s worth having to fight your way through the parking lot, and fight people who need to take pedestrian lessons.
Happy healthy shopping!

They have such a great selection of natural products. The staples I always stock up on here are there strawberry jelly (so good), shampoos ($ 2.99) can’t beat that price, and coconut oil ($ 5.99). I have about 15 of there reusable bags. They are cool print. Even if you come here just to look, you will always find something new to try!

I love trader joes. So affordable and quaint. I love their line of products. Trader joes seems to really care about the consumer. Did I mention they have the prettiest flowers also at reasonable prices?

A joy. Every time. Just… a joy.
I can’t wait until we open the TJ’s in Orlando!!!
Baked Cheese Crunchies, Dark Chocolate Cherries, Trek Mix Trail Mix, Coconut Bonbons…
Friendly and knowledgeable staff, quick check out, not the easiest parking lot, but that’s OK. :)

One of my favorite Trader Joe’s location — nice and roomy on the inside, with plenty of checkout lanes, and lots of parking. If you are visiting a TJs to stock up on all your favorite ‘name’ brands — go elsewhere. Trader Joe’s carries one or two of each type of item, and most of the time it is the Trader Joe’s brand (wines being the exception –they have many different brands, including Trader Joe’s). They even have a Trader Joe’s sriracha!
Although it has been a problem in the past at this location, this visit they actually had all the odds and ends personal pampering items I like to buy from them: enrich face lotion, soap, honey mango shave cream, hand lotion, coconut body butter, etc. Past visits they have always been out of one or two of those items.
Also bought some of my favorite foods while I was there — red licorice, ginger cookies, pistachios, and spicy chai latte mix. I had no cooler with me, so that prevented me from stocking up on the frozen foods they make that I like so much.
Final tip — great place to buy fresh flowers and/​or plants — their selection is amazing, and the plants always do well.
At least until our Tampa one opens, I’ll be back.
