We live locally and usually get our butchery supplies and select produce from Tendercrop. I…read morerecently placed a large butchery order for our yearly family trip to nantucket and the butchery manager went out of her way to make sure all of our meets were sectioned out and vacuum packed for a safe trip from NH to the island. Attention to detail and supporting local businesses is important to us and we are always satisfied with our experience at Tendercrop.

Well this is a long one. On Friday October 2, 2026, at…read moreapproximately 5:16 PM, my wife purchased produce from Tendercrop Farm at 123 Dover Point Road in Dover, New Hampshire. We have shopped at Tendercrop before and never had any issues. A display sign was clearly the worded "Blueberrys". Relying on that store signage, my wife purchased a small box the fruit believing that it was blueberries. We feed our 3 year old mini Dachshund Molly blueberry's as a healthy treat. We are well aware dogs should never eat grapes, raisins or chocolate because they are toxic to dogs. When we got home what we thought were farm harvested blueberries were packed in a little green box with a clear cellophane wrapper on it held be a single elastic band. There was nothing written on the package. At home my wife said "try these blueberries they are so fresh". I ate a couple and they tasted like blueberries but slightly different and they had seeds. And I noticed tiny little roots stems. We both thought, well these are farm grown and not from a big store like Market Basket . So I gave Molly a few and more that night. On Saturday she ate more, approximately 12-14 in total on the two days Friday and Saturday On Sunday the 4th my wife started to question these blueberries . She dug out of the kitchen trash bucket the sales receipt and to our horror saw "Concord Grapes" $3.99. It was then realized that these were not blueberries and were Concord grapes. Grapes can be toxic to dogs and can cause potentially serious kidney injury. Since our Vets office was closed we immediately sought emergency veterinary care at Port City Veterinary referral Hospital. We spent approximately four long hours there. Bloodwork was performed to evaluate her kidney function, and she was administered fluids. The emergency veterinary bill was $465, which we paid out of pocket because her pet insurance had a $500 deductible. Just before we left for the hospital my wife called Tendercrop to tell them what happened. She spoke to a female employee that stated that it was probably a customer that inadvertently placed the grapes under a Blueberry signage after deciding not to buy them. My wife told me she was absolutely certain that was wrong and someone, (an employee) must have mistakenly placed them and others under the wrong sign. I then called and asked to speak with manager or supervisor. I believe same woman that spoke my wife spoke to me. I explained this serious mistake and that we were en-route to the Hospital because toxicity effects from grapes don't show up immediately. Your dog can act completely fine one minute and just like that they can become seriously ill needing emergency medical care. This unidentified female manager at first listened to me but completely changed her attitude when I said that Tendercrop mislabeled the Blueberry's which were in fact small Concord grapes, and that my Vet bills should be covered by Tendercrop. At that point she became belligerent, argumentative, and rude taking no responsibility. Never concerned about my dog. She then abruptly and unprofessionally hung up on me. I never cursed or said anything to deserve that treatment. At the hospital Molly was blood tested and given a fluid injection. Thankfully The blood tests were normal. We left the hospital around 4:30. The bill was $465.00 with Sunday ruined by stress and worry if my dog's kidneys were going to shut down and have to be hospitalized. Because of the delay that of the onset of kidney toxicity from the grapes we were told that Molly must be tested again in 48 hrs before we can breath easier that she's in a safe zone. Monday morning we called her regular Vet and made appointment to bring her in Tuesday the 6th for the critical second test. Mollys regular PCP stated that some dogs don't have a severe reaction to grapes and some do. And that Tuesday's test was critical. So the Tuesday came and thank God prayers were answered and her kidney function was normal. Another $100, $65 of which we can claim in the Trupanion coverage. We were considering small claims court for the $465 but with a filing fee of $125 it's a risk because the only proof of what happened would be the direct evidence of what my wife saw. And Tendercrop would counter that the Concord grapes were labeled correctly and a customer misplaced the box my wife picked up. It would be my wife's word against the store with no real proof on both sides. The magistrate would have to decide whose story was more convincing. So we decided to fold our cards and walk away with what is most important thing which is Mollys health. We are very disappointed in the conduct and unwillingness and total disregard of the management of the store to take any part in the responsibility of this incident. We will NEVER enter Tendercrop again.

Staff are top notch! Not only this location but any that I have been to. Always happy to help and…read morewill typically escort you to the item you are looking for even if it's on the other side of the store. At most retail places today the employees must lookup where items are on their device. I can do that and expect employees to not have to. I feel Trader Joe's makes the complete customer experience a top priority. And their goods are top quality too! Stores and lavatories are always clean. My favorite grocery store chain among several that I frequent. Keep up the good work TJ's!

I just feel like I HAVE to leave a review of this Trader Joe's because I have received…read moreextraordinary customer service on multiple occasions when visiting. First - my roommate and I visited Trader Joe's right after moving to Portsmouth. The cashier looked at our IDs since we were buying wine, and when she found out that we had just moved to the area, she gave us a reusable bag as a welcome gift. We were so touched by this welcome and really appreciated the gesture as we had just arrived and were starting to settle in. Second, and most recently, my partner and I were picking up a couple of items on a Sunday night. We went to get in the checkout line and then remembered that we needed to grab one more thing. Just then, the bagging attendant told us "I'll open another lane for you guys" to which we responded that we needed to grab another thing. He told us it was not a problem and he'd be ready when we got back, and returned to bagging. We went, got our item, and upon our return to the checkout line, the attendant immediately opened up another lane. Although this may seem small, I was so appreciative that the attendant not only wanted to improve our experience initially, but cared enough to keep an eye on us while we picked up another item and opened up another lane for us as soon as we returned. I felt that it truly went above and beyond and I wish I remembered his name to give him a shoutout. I would be remiss if I concluded this review with no mention of the Trader Joe's food. Their frozen meals are amazing and all of their food is so high quality; I've never had a product that disappointed.

Italian imports store meets corner deli, DeStefano's Market is the kind of place I hadn't realized…read moreI was missing from my neighborhood until I visited. Incredibly friendly staff that sounded like they've been running the family business for decades, a bright and comfortable space, and an arcade machine! I highly recommend stopping by for a bite or to grab a snack to take home. My friends and I tried a significant sampling and will definitely be back. Meatball calzone - made fresh in the morning on their homemade bread, this isn't the thick crusty calzone you're thinking of. It's more like a long stick bread, packed with meatballs, sauce and cheese on the inside. They cut one into three for us, and served with a separate cup of marinara dipping sauce each! Lobster Tail pastry and cannoli: fantastic pastries. I've had many of each of these, and DeStefano's had some of the best. The lobster tail was light and incredibly flaky, the cannoli had some crunch without being hard or overly sweet. The chocolate chip cookie also had chunks of butterscotch (?) and was perfectly cooked--I know saying perfectly cooked sounds crazy, but I don't think I've ever had another cookie that nailed the crispy/soft line so well. Can't wait to head back to Portsmouth so I can visit again!

Friendly welcoming staff. Fabulous sandwiches on fresh baked focaccia, sprinkled with rosemary!…read moreDelicious desserts like Ricotta Cake, Mascarpone Banana Bread and filled to order cannoli. We stumbled upon it and had a quick lunch and then went back hours later for dinner!!
