Trader Joe’s

It never ceases to amaze me how many people complain about other people and their children in the store as though the store were responsible for that! I also read a review or someone said that they found a rock in their salad. That is actually a very common occurrence particularly with fresh produce as rocks and stones and dirt are what the plants live in! That being said, my fiancé and I went to this Trader Joe’s yesterday on December 23. Yes, it was crazy busy but the store was in good shape and the employees were as helpful and kind as always. In passing, I mentioned that it was my birthday! I have managed to do this my entire life so it’s not really that surprising! As soon as the cashier was finished ringing up my groceries, it was time for him to go on his break. He immediately went to the flower section and got a lovely bouquet, cut the price off, and handed it to me and said «Happy Birthday» as I was walking out the door!
It was such a thoughtful act and it really made my day! Management, if you are reading this review his name is Sid. I hope you know what a great team member you have in this man.

Seriously, the fastest lines at a grocery store ever. This Saturday at 5pm, i was throught the line and on my way in five minutes flat; I timed them. Same thing last weekend on Saturday at 4 PM, I timed my wait from the back of the line thru the doors and it was nine minutes. The staff is always fun and the products speak for themselves. I love the wine and flower values. This week i took home 20 stems of beautiful roses for $ 10, a croportunnity they said. My wife loved them. Thanks Trader Joes!

It’s an OK store, not as upscale as I remember trader joes to be, prices were overall reasonable, however my kids and I got two wraps from there, turkey gobbler wrap and the turkey spinach cheese wrap… We shared those and got terrible tummy aches and all that naturally, biologically follows. I would say, avoid their pre made food, … The cashier’s and ask are super friendly tho

Great store. Located in the Forum Shopping Plaza, it’s pretty small, but they have a good variety of items. They have great prices on juices, produce, baked goods, frozen meals, etc. There is also a nice selection of flower bouquets here for really cheap. Although the selection always varies, I have seen peonies, eucalyptus leaves, freesia and much more. Everyone is also pretty friendly and the workers keep the lines moving fast. Be sure to try their caramel popcorn when it is available. From what I remember, it is dairy free.

I was planning to make a trip to Whole Foods, but since I was in the shopping center I decided to visit Trader Joe’s instead. The store was clean, organized, and very nice. There was a nice selection of spices, pastas, healthy snacks, and organic dairy. I picked up a few family favorites and if I come back I will try a few of their frozen selections.
The reason I’m only giving this location three stars is because they had a very small selection of produce and premade deli items. The items that were there didn’t look all that fresh and it was the only area in the small store that really needed some attention. This specific location is a nice place to get snacks, wine, cheeses, and frozen items. I wouldn’t plan on stopping in for salads, quick lunch items, or serious grocery shopping.

I love this Trader Joe’s. I’m always in an out relatively quickly… probably because there are only a few things I come here for. I’d tell you but I don’t want you to buy up my beloved treats.
Whenever I don’t see what I’m looking for on the shelf, I’ll tell whatever worker is nearby and they go look in the back for me. Sometimes they’ll find it, sometimes not, but I appreciate the effort to go look. One time of the workers even suggested that I call first and they’ll let me know if they have it in stock before I drive over.
I’ve only had one so-​so experience here where I went to the customer service question to ask a question and the guy behind the desk pretty much ignored that I was standing there.

I drive 45 just to come to this trader joes. The people here are SO friendly and hey always have new products to try along with great food!

This is my go-​to grocery back at home in St. Louis. And this Trader Joe’s is just as awesome. It has all the groceries I need at great prices. The people are friendly and they always offer delicious samples!

Normally, I’m Trader Joe’s biggest fan. On my recent trip here, that changed.
First off, I visited the deli section to get a couple of meals and snacks for work.
The two items that were disappointing were the pre-​cut fruit (mangoes, blueberries, pineapple, etc.) and the Roasted Butternut Squash salad.
Fruit: I popped this into the fridge until the day after but when I opened it, there was white fuzz around a blueberry. It had already started to go bad. So that went in the trash.
Salad: I found a pea-​sized rock. A ROCK! I actually couldn’t believe that I would find something like this in a Trader Joe’s product.
All in all: Very disappointed and I don’t think I’ll return to that location.

Excellent prices and decent selection of Trader Joe’s products. Of the many supermarkets around Georgia, Publix and TJ’s are probably the best.
Addictions/​common purchases:
— Lemon arugula salad
— TJ’s 0% greek yogurt
— Clover honey
— Rib eye (cheap)
— Spices
— VANILLA BON BONS
Wine selection is pretty vast for a little supermarket. I wouldn’t recommend getting produce here, since you can find it much cheaper at nearby H Mart and other farmers markets around the city.
Think of TJ’s as a much. much cheaper Whole Foods.

This is one of three Trader Joe’s I frequent. This is my favorite. The Forum is great for shopping and dining. Having Trader Joe’s there is the icing on the cake… and is always my last stop, when leaving The Forum.
Like most, I enjoy the wine selections. I also have many other favorites, including the produce.
Definitely worth a visit.

Trader Joes is a smaller whole foods. Im so in love with their dried fruits, frozen selections and cookie butters. Havent tried any vitamins or hair products shampoos etc but will on the next visit.
I have heard the premade salads are delicious so i purchased two and will test for myself. This location sits at the corner of the forum and i almost forgot they were here. If you come in just to browse im sure you will find something new to try.

CHEERS!
Trader Joe’s is a store that offers healthier alternatives to your favorite foods. Many of their protein items that are sourced from grass fed, free range animals. They also have a nice selection of organic fruits and veggies.
However, you must still remain vigilant because there are still prepared items that are too high in sodium, fat and are too processed. Don’t get comfortable, use your common sense and READ those labels. At the same time live a little and have a naughty treat that you wouldn’t normally purchase.
I love Trader’s. It’s just a cool place to hang out but it also doubles as a grocery store. I used to go in and just get the staple veggies and perishables but I’m now starting to have fun exploring other items such as risotto, arancini bites, lamb meatballs, samosas and such. I just tend to forget about their freezer section because I tend to focus on ingredients rather than prepared items. Today, I stepped out of my comfort zone!
When I take my daughter, she makes a bee line for the samples which is a nice way to explore before purchasing.
Staff is awesome. As I was perusing the aisle, one of the workers began chatting me up about the items that he enjoyed in that particular section. He convinced me to buy a couple of items that I was otherwise not sure about purchasing. Also if they turn out to be yucky, I know exactly where to find him. :) This young man, (a brother), also dropped what he was doing to assist me in locating my cell phone which of course was hidden in my bag. Nice.
There is always something to please every palette and everyone’s special dietary needs.
You get credit for bringing your own shopping bags and I strongly encourage that you do so. Although their bags are cool, they have paper handles which are not as strong as cloth handles.
Finally, when it comes to Trader Joe’s, you can bet the price is right!

Trader Joe’s is my never favorite place to go to kill time away from the office during lunch.
«But… why?» you may ask.
Because they stock fun and good-​quality food, cheap wine and have a stock of wonderful employees who are not shy of conversation.
I really feel happy in this store. Like I’m on vacation!
Weird? Perhaps.
But will you feel this way, too? I certainly hope so.
The produce is always fresh and, although not always cheaper than your big-​name grocery stores, well-​priced.
This is also the place to go for those hard-​to-​find items such as Ginger Beer (not ginger ale, there IS a difference), a variety of vegetable chips, organic dark chocolate peanut butter cups and an honest to goodness smiling cashier.
Perusing their wine and beer selection is almost as fun as perusing the rest of the store. They stock a lot of brands I’ve never even heard of, and some that I’m not sure I could recount even if I tried (there is a particular brand with simply a question mark on it’s label… No more. No less.)
Of course, their legendary «Two-​Buck Chuck» is a whopping Three dollars now! But come on, that’s still cheaper than the terrible Wal Mart brand of wine.

We recently moved into the area, and we were thrilled to see so many great grocery stores at which we could shop! That being said, Trader Joe’s is always our weekly standard. We have been fairly loyal Trader Joe’s fans for years. Once we became familiar with the products they carry, the shortcuts that they offer were just perfect for our family needs. And the price is consistently lower than when we shop at other stores.
We love the Trader Joe’s vibe — we have experienced nothing but good cheer and great, helpful service from the folks who work there.

We went to this trader joes since it was at the outdoor mall we were at and we needed a few groceries. This location is busy but somehow still maintains staying organized, clean, and not sold out of every product. The cashiers work fast and hard to make sure customers are not waiting long in line. I had a good first experience at this location and will be back and recommend.

I think Trader Joe’s Peachtree Corners is THE only thing I find better in the ‘burbs than its ITP counterpart in Buckhead. I work up by the Forum, so this grocery store singlehandedly deserves credit for keeping me nourished during the work week.
TJ’s Peachtree Corners is significantly smaller and less crowded than the Buckhead location right by my house. The smaller thing doesn’t really phase me, and the less crowded part is amazing. (I get stressed out by grocery store rush hour.) Trader Joe’s is like the lovechild of Whole Foods and Kroger with very reasonable prices. You couldn’t do all of your grocery shopping here really, but they have a lot of great healthy, organic products. I regularly pick up the prepackaged salads and wraps. They are all really tasty, relatively healthy, and a whole lot cheaper than eating out daily. Also, I feel a lot better about eating a fresh made salad than I do a Lean Cuisine for my Monday-​Friday lunch. They also have an excellent selection of Luna bars and flowers. I’m a fan.
I know I’m probably alone in this, but the one thing I don’t get about Trader Joe’s is the Two Buck Chuck. I am sorry but $ 2.99 or not, that stuff is disgusting. I was behind a woman today buying a case of it. I’m not sure if that makes her an alcoholic or the world’s cheapest hostess, but either way no. Just no. They have other more «normal» priced wines as well in the $ 7 – 9 range. I’ve tried a few of these, and they’ve been okay but I’d much rather just pony up the $ 10 – 12 and get something that I know I’m going to like. Maybe it’s just me, but you’ve been warned.
All and all, Trader Joe’s is a great place to grocery shop for specialty items and prepackaged lunches, but in less you’re a totally broke lush, avoid the Two Buck Chuck.

How in the world have I never come here? I like going to The Forum and totally missed it. I was researching about the nearest Trader Joe’s to me.
Trader Joe’s is located on the farthest left side of The Forum, closer to Peachtree Corners Circle side. As I walk in Trader Joe’s, it’s a bit smaller than Whole Foods. I know, I know. Everyone will compare the two. It’s just a fact. Both cater to a healthier lifestyle.
Even though Trader Joe’s was smaller, I still manage to be impress with what I could find there. I’ve been looking everywhere for vegetarian tamales. Not only does Trader Joe’s have them, they have two types — sweet corn with mild green chiles & cheese + cheese & green chile. I finally bought almond butter along with other goodies. I spent more than I wanted to but I realized that it’s all about quality.
I cannot wait to go back and buy more stuff.

What’s not to like about Trader Joes? If you don’t like what you get, take it back… no questions asked.
Location: I like this location so much better than Monroe Dr because parking is MUCH better. At least here I know I won’t catch a case with people fighting over parking spaces.
I’m addicted to the cilantro jalapeño hummus. If you haven’t tried, stop sleeping on it and give it a try.
Like a carrot cake? I’m going to let you in on Atlanta’s best kept secret. Run and get Trader Joes «Karat Cake» which can be found in the frozen section… yes I said frozen. It’s the most moist carrot cake you’ll ever eat. TRUST me. My husband is the pickiest person I know when it comes to desserts and he inhales this cake in 2 sittings. Do yourself a favor and buy 2 at a time and thank me later.

The primary reason I came to this store is because I read that they sell almond meal at a decent price compared to whole foods or online. I know what you’re thinking «why almond meal?’ I’m currently on a low-​carb/​gluten-​free diet and in search of alternative recipes for my favorite «carb-​loaded» foods. *I have a wedding dress to fit into in less than a month! Don’t judge!*
Any who, it is a very small grocery store; slightly bigger than a convenience store. But I consider it a health food/​specialty food store. If you’re having trouble finding certain items in a regular grocery store, this would probably be the place where you would find it. They have everything from dried green beans, from masala sauce, to cookie butter spread?! They just have so many interesting food items here! The prices are not that bad either as compared to Whole Foods. My almond meal cost :$ 4.99, and the cheapest I saw at whole foods was $ 7.99.
I personally will not replace my regular grocery store with Trader Joe’s, but I like how they have plentiful options for people with dietary restrictions. I will be back once I run out of of my almond meal.
