Trader Joe’s

I’ve shopped at my share of Trader Joe’s across the country and this one is on the larger size. They usually have everything I’m looking for and the staff has been very friendly. I love checking out what the sample is in the back too!
It’s always pretty cold in here so I tend to bring a sweatshirt for my shopping trips.
The parking lot can also be a bit crazy since people are trying to park for the other stores and restaurants at the plaza, but don’t let that deter you from shopping here!

This is the closest Trader Joes to us and also the nicest! The people here are very nice and helpful. I really like the wine, bread and condiment selection. We make a special trip here just for their ketchup.
This location is very busy in the evenings so we try to come during the day when possible.

TRADER JOE’S!!! Trader Joe’s is my favorite grocery store in all the land.
I am a huge fan of their products and I will continue to shop here for years to come.

Love this place, everything in the store is wonderful, the people are nice to. Just came in for something not so healthy but oh so good ! Maple Leaf cookies! The best cookie I’ve ever had that is store bought! Must try!

I love the food selection … But customer service is the worst. While I was shopping i stopped to get a sample … No one was there she was too busy standing at the fridge talking to another employee about her weekend and how much money she spent. She had her gloves on and was touching the fridge. She eventually went back behind the counter. Never changed her gloves and kept on serving her taquitos. He cashier is just rude she seemed bothered. Didn’t say hello rang up everything and never said a word looked at me or smiled. Gave me my receipt and said thanks. My whole shopping experience in the store passing around 5 employees not one smiled said hello or asked if I was finding everything ok. I’ll do my shopping at sprouts from now on.

I get in trader joe this location in so many time, never have environment for work like unhappy to help customer and stressful around.
I come in night time and early morning, it’s was the best time.
Customer service very very bad this time. If you not really want to sell product to customer CLOSE DOWN brunch at here or change attitude at work, from manger affect to worker

Marcus was great! Best cashier /​/​bagger! Going camping with a few friends & he offered to give us extra bags in case we needed them in the wilderness! Ended up coming in super handy & the whole time we were just so thankful that Marcus was kind enough to give us extra bags! YAY MARCUS

Love this place!!! I just wish the location was a little bigger. I feel like I’m trapped in a herd of cattle every time I shop here. Aside from that the staff is always super friendly and helpful. The pricing is actually cheaper than the average grocery store and you get better quality of products! Plus they have a wine selection to die for ranging in pricing. I’ve actually tried a couple of good wines imported from Italy from this location. Also, if you haven’t tried any of their cookie butter products, you are not living life!!!

Pasadena, Ca, 1967. The opening of the very first TJ’s (as it is now called by those looking for a verbal shortcut). Just think. It has technically been in business longer than the moment when most of your dads got their first twinkle in their eyes.
It’s easy to figure out why they have succeeded where others have failed. Perhaps it’s because of the constantly morphing, trendy, yet (sometimes questionable) healthful TJ line of products that mom brought home (sexist I know, but that was the 60’s) that his twinkle came about. Good enough reason. Why not? And the cheerful crew always looking like they just left Waikiki in their «hey dude» Hawaiian shirts.
I love the frequently abused sampling station. Love the free coffee. Love the long refrigerator and freezer cases full of products that have the potential to free up the chef of the family from having to completely «create» each night. Cheap eggs, Two Buck Chuck (if you don’t know of this, you are way too young; look it up grasshopper), frozen appetizers, fresh dairy, produce and meats, baked goods, the unusual and the seasonal, even plants, flowers, and herbs. And don’t forget the mini shopping carts for the kiddos and the little prize they win for finding a hidden TJ character in the aisles. It has something for everyone, at a price point that is hard to beat. The best part is reading the featured mailer, The Fearless Flyer. Who cares if you are actually buying the targeted stuff? With silly artists’ sketches and spirited captions, it will keep you chuckling and waiting at the mailbox for the next edition.
I come here often. It is one of several in my area, thanks to their popularity. Clean, well organized, cheerful, efficient. Bring your own shopping bags and you get to enter a drawing. I never win, so I have no clue what the prize is. Besides, those brown paper bags used to be useful for birdcage liners. My prize is getting to shop there.

I consider Trader Joe’s a high end grocery store, selling organic, vegan, fruits, vitamins and a nice selections of beer and wine. If you care about your health and soul this is the place to shop.

This is the closest Trader Joe’s to me, so I always stop in for items when I am in Riverside and pick up my other to go groceries at Riverside Plaza (Vons).
This store does get busy, however, there are always plenty of check-​outs open or they open one for you if lines get long. The cashiers are always friendly and efficient here and It is always a quick in and out even when store is busy.
I like to stop in here for the eggs, they are a good deal and fresh. I also like their yogurt and we especially like the French onion soup. This also seems to be a well stocked store.

Kudos to the management at Trader Joe’s in Riverside, every employee in this store is absolutely delightful, your customer service is unsurpassed in the Inland Empire! The merchandise is fresh and delicious as well, and the prices are right, so there is no better choice in Riverside when it comes to shopping for groceries.

I love love love TJ. I love that the store has what I need but is small in size compared the traditional grocery stores, so much less aisle to down.
The quality of the produce and food is always good plus they have so much variety of vegan and organic options which makes my life so much easier when it comes to preparing my meals at home. I am always satisfied with both the options available, the prices and the quality of the grocery.

The last time I was here, I simply asked a worker what is the meaning of Organic food, he had no idea. Then I asked the manager and he seemed just as clueless which was very sad. He simple stated something like it is the same as organic which is pretty bad for a manager of a health food store. Natural is not even regulated or certified so that is why we see it all over items to increase sales, such as natural flavor, or natural simple printed because it’s at a health this store. Whereas ORGANIC is regualted by the government USDA (United dates department of agriculture) which means it has no pesticides, herbicides, fungicides, harmful chemical, GMO and so much more. The staff and manager are not very educated on there products and there was a few organic products, it was like shopping at Ralph’s. Trader Joes has a name for being healthy but are no different and somewhat fooling society sadly, with a higher price.
Don’t get me wrong I support the idea of health food and organic food so them creating an awareness to eat health or healthier option but I’d rather spend my money at a local co-​op, family owned health food store.
I recomend going to Goodwin’s Organics or even Clarks because their a locally own health food store. Goodwin’s is the first all organic market and the staff and products are awesome, you pay for what you get and the quality is great. Try the food bar and drinks bar! They really aim on promoting organic health food especially from a family view!

Very great variety glad to have it so close to home! The employees are always friendly and the prices are very affordable. Highly recommended always in stock of items I need for home. It’s a clean store as all trader joes are. If you like organic stores it’s worth the drive.

I love to come to trader’s to plan my lunches for the week. I end up getting 5 salads and I’ll decide which one to eat depending on the expiration date. The salads are all delicious and I love how they have a fine selection of them without meat. :-)
The samples they give out are killer even though I’m too embarrassed to grab them sometimes! I just recently tried a fish taco sample and I made it for dinner that night. Delish!
I love the selection of trail mixes and dried fruit along with the variety of chocolates and sweets. Also, cookie butter ANYTHING is delectable.
I always feed my dog, Lucy, the Trader Joe’s brand dog food and she loves it.
The only problem is that you have to go to Von’s across the street to pick up foil, cleaning supplies, and other necessities.

I usually only come to trader joes for their Greek yogurt. They have so many options and flavors that other grocery markets don’t have. They have different fage flavors, which is really why I go there. The blueberry acai is my favorite. One side yogurt, one side blueberry and you can mix in however much you want. The salads are great too, a little pricey but it’s unique and healthy. I should shop at TJ more often haha

Who doesn’t love trader joes? I’m here every week and I always forget to check In. Anyways I’ve always had such great experiences here with the staff and I love all the food selections and prices.

I love Trader Joe’s!
This is one of the biggest locations I have been in which is a really nice change to be able to walk through and not bump into people.
The products are just freaking fabulous!
Over time we have tried about any and everything they have and its all been more or less top notch!
Newest obsession, the smores ice cream sandwiches, yuuum!
Another highlight would be the samples, they really go all out, its been tacos with salsa and guac, pulled pork sammies with chips and last weekend stuffed peppers and microgreens. Plates, for free!!!
How can you not give them 5 stars?!!
Prices are more than fair, in fact the cheapest you will find at any healthier or organic chain.
Feel good shopping at good prices with super nice, always helpful staff!
Trader Joe’s rocks my world!

Like all Trader Joes, staff is overly friendly. Not always a bad thing. My wife gets hit on, actually it’s more like, I like your green hair, tattoos, Harry potter/​Star Wars shirt (no particular order).
Try there shampoos, conditioners, toothbrushes.
Beer prices okay, snack stuff is always off the beaten path.
Great meals ready to put in the microwave/​oven. It depends if you want it to taste as the company wants or you like your food soggy, gross, but less than 2 minutes. That’s your call.
Give a hoot and bring your own bags. Birkenstocks not required.
Overall, great store. Needs to tears down that CVS and make it bigger.
