    Most Trader Joe's that I've come across are located in the suburbs of a town or city. This one was outside of downtown in a nicer neighborhood of Boston near the Seaport. July is definitely a hot and humid month and there were also lots of flowers laying out store front, end-aisles and displays of everything and anything perfect for BBQ'ing. Picking up few groceries was mainly the purpose of this visit. From snacks to salads, coffee to basically anything you might have forgotten in your toiletry bag. Price is always right, service from all clerks and cashiers are very consistent whenever you visit any Trader Joe's in any state. What I didn't expect to be such a good product, was their Lavender Overnight Face Mask. Coulda, shoulda, woulda bought more than one because Trader Joe's goes through these seasons and once you miss out on a specific item, you may not see it for another few months or an entire year. For an afternoon, it wasn't as busy as I normally would encounter during the after work hours. It could have been that thunderstorms were expected and customer's wanted to be there earlier during the day to avoid being stuck in the rain. Cashiers were super quick and efficient, store is well kept and organized, I love the building as it was sort of historic looking, this Trader Joe's has only been here for a short time, brand new looking!

    I'm always a huge fan of Trader Joe's and this location is no exception. I will say that it tends to get very busy, especially right after work hours. The line moves fast, but it's not worth the hassle for me. The staff is really friendly and helpful, so don't be shy if you have any questions. I'm always so tempted to stop by when I'm in the Seaport area, even if it's just to grab something small. The selection of food and snacks is awesome, but the Seaport location doesn't have wine, beer, etc., which is a bit of a bummer. This time of year is perfect for a nice Trader Joe's haul, especially with all the fun fall snacks! My favorites are the pumpkin baking mixes and Joe-Joe's. It's also really fun checking out all the new products and snacks!

    Great store. Sandwiches ehhh. Got the grilled pesto chix wrap. Think it has 1 or 2 bites of chicken. It is all wrap and more wrap. Very disappointing and now I am still hungry and need to bike home. What a complete joke.

    Many years ago, I was an owner of a potato company that started in the north end of Boston. It was…read morea beautiful product , tasted great, and was packaged very well. We took pride in the fact that we used peanut oil to cook our chips in what was known as the Hawaiian style, is this was in opposition to the oil our nearest competitor used - cotton seed oil, which is actually industrial byproduct of manufacturing cotton for clothing. We thought Whole Foods would really love our chips and I was really disappointed when we were told that you wouldn't sell our product in your stores because our peanut oil was not cold pressed. Roll forward to the present . i'm shopping for groceries in what was then the newest store, the Whole Foods on Central Street in Jamaica Plain. I was looking at the bulk chocolate that was wrapped in clear plastic wrap, and I happen to glance at the ingredients. There, clearly marked for the whole world to see, what is the fact that the chocolate bar can change genetically modified to organisms. Yikes! I put the bar back and immediately remembered what had happened "back in the day" when Whole Foods had a very strict standard about what they would and would not sell. I was shocked and disappointed. I didn't bother to say anything to anybody because frankly, nobody gives a shit. But I have it upon yelp and even though this is about the Westland Avenue market, I thought I would tell the story. It is definitely a narrative that tells the story of our country. There was a time when people really cared. They had standards, and even though Whole Foods standards prevented me making what would be a very big sale for a product I believed in, I understood. And respected the stories decision not to accept our product, even though I personally felt that it was a little over the top. And now? You're selling a product that has what some will consider could be one of the very worst aspects of the ever expanding catalog of what Michael Palin calls, "food like substances". I would like to see that product remove from all the stores everywhere. It is sorry reminder of how far we have fallen.

    We like this Whole foods market- it has everything from produce to breads to prepared foods…read more I especially like the prepared foods - the soups are good for lunches. I would like to see more variety in the hot foods bar - especially because we always come here on Saturday and it's the same dishes. I understand they probably have a rotating menu so each day probably has a different selection but since we only come on Saturday it's pretty much the same every Saturday. Please change out the menu. Yesterday they even had some cut up oranges for free samples and that was great!! You get to try the fruit before buying- I mean you generally can't go wrong with cuties but still I thought this was a nice touch!! Loved it! Now that they have so many more self service checkout stations it's great! The space is also more efficient now. Their service is good too - they have someone there to quickly help if necessary. I like the green bananas as I like to buy them that way so they ripen over the next few days and can be eaten while yellow before they become sad lol! Overall we like this store - would like to see more selection/ rotation of menu in the hot bar!

But, 3/4 of a mile is a long way to walk with heavy bags of groceries. Their staff is extraordinarily helpful and friendly.

The flower section especially stood out: beautifully arranged, fresh, and thoughtfully put together. I'm not usually a frozen food eater, but friends have been encouraging me to give Trader Joe's frozen options a shot -- and I'm glad I finally did. I took the risk, and I don't regret it at all. Their frozen meals have a great flavor balance, and I rarely have to add much (if any) extra seasoning. That's a huge win for convenience and taste. The staff here are friendly, approachable, and even funny -- whether you catch them on the phone or in person, they bring good energy to the store. The one downside is the checkout area. Because of the layout, it's not always clear where to line up, and there isn't much space for items to be packed. One time, a few things I paid for were placed off to the side and didn't make it into my bags. So now I double-check before leaving to make sure I've got everything. As for parking: they don't validate, and it's street parking only. That said, both times I visited, I was able to grab a spot right out front -- but definitely go in prepared for the possibility that parking might be tricky. All in all, I'd absolutely come back -- great selection, strong frozen food game, and an overall pleasant shopping experience.
