Yes it's that time of year again. Pumpkin spice everything...lol... I'm not a major fan but some things are quite nice. Get there soon as things are seasonal and when they run out, they're gone. You still have some time though... But it's alway nice to walk into the store and see all the fancy Cinderella pumpkins ready for the autumn seasons. The amazing selections of fresh cuts flowers which is alway a must to get whenever you're there. They do have some of the best selections to choose from as well as the potted plants and orchids plants. With TJ, even with a list of things to get you still walk out with a cart full of things that was never on the plan. They know how to get you with their things...lol.. I can never leave with what I come for. The isles are alway neat and fully stocked with everything. If there's something that's not there but looking for it, someone is alway there to help you in any way. Staffs are alway so friendly and welcoming. The friendly chit chat while ringing up all your stuffs. It may not be a massive big grocery store but does have everything you need. read more

I have always enjoyed shopping at Trader Joe's and have done so in multiple cities throughout the country depending on where I lived at the time or if I happened to be on vacation. And I have to say that I have never had a bad experience in any way. Anyone who has any concept of this store knows that it's not the biggest in terms of selection of everything. It's a smaller store with fewer options but it really doesn't matter. The food they sell is so good. I love their own product line of groceries. Their golden oreo style Joe-Joe's cookies are like crack-cocaine. I can scarf a whole box in one night! I don't do that anymore, I'm in cookie recovery. But I know one of these days I'll fall off the wagon but I'll be fine with that. They have great prepared foods like meatloafs you can toss in the oven when you don't have time to make something from scratch. I love their Atlantic salmon with lemon herb butter. That's really delicious. Sadly, some products come and go. They used to have a sweet onion bacon vinaigrette that was phenomenal. We not only used it in salads but also to saute Brussels sprouts and other veggies. My entire household was sad to see that disappear. They have a great selection of supplements and very affordably priced skin care products which, according to some instagram users, claim are just as good as high end products that sell for a lot more money. Their fresh cut flower section is incredible. They're so fresh and are better quality and the best priced compared to any other grocers who carries flowers. They also have beautiful orchids and many different varieties. They sell a small collection of plants that always gets my attention. And like everything else at TJ's, their prices are better than anywhere else. Lastly, I have to give a shout out to Trader Joe's consistent excellent customer service skills. Trader Joe's is a shining example of a customer-centric culture with really great employees/staff that are engaging, know their product very well, are very willing to help and are down to earth. It reminds me of a bygone era where people were more engaging/friendlier twenty-five or thirty years ago. I think it's important to acknowledge how Trader Joe's shines in every way. read more

Trader Joe's is always a delight, enhanced even more after a trip to Target across the street which is a absolute dump. The staff are fantastic and their bag packing skills second to none. The Store is clean and well laid out. I do have my issues, but it is with the produce rather than the actual Cat City store which is without fault. The potatoes, whatever there grade, are always on the turn, as are the bananas. But my main issue is the wasteful packaging, you know the kind, a box the size of a small TV with a few marble size frozen dumplings in side an air filled plastic bag. Some of the frozen food is also questionable, like the seafood medley. There are things in there I do not recognize and taste like feet. If I were rich I would buy the place and have the staff live in my house. read more

Absolutely a fan of this TJs, helps to be one of very few in the CV, La Quinta and Palm Desert being the others. If you're in need of any Trader Joe's thing, then you must stop in at this one in Cathedral City. Located off Palm Canyon in the shopping center with Target, El Pollo Loco and lots of familiar spots, but next door to Boomers - National Amusement Center which keeps this parking lot extra lit. The layout is pretty easy and classic to the ways of Traders locations. I'm usually only in town for a weekend here or there and when coming up to visit friends and or/stay this is one of my main go to places for snacks, small groceries, and wine. The service here is great and even when it's very busy I still feel like everything runs so smoothly. Awesome produce, nuts, hummus, dips, chips and veggie friendly finds. Impossible nuggets in the frozen section? Yes, please! A bottle of French rosé... It's a yah! Good prices and quality everything. Whether your local, passing through as a traveler or just visiting. This Trader Joe's will be good to you. And yes like any places they may run low or out of popular items or even discontinue things, however you'll be surprised when you discover new ones. Open 8 AM to 9 PM daily. Holidays pending. read more

I always love shopping at Trader Joe's. The grocery store is not very large so it's easy to navigate, I love the selection of all the different flowers that they offer...as a sidenote, they might have the best peaches I've ever eaten. it's always busy so that should tell you something and the staff are knowledgeable, helpful and always available for people to check out quickly. read more

I think this has to be one of my favorite Trader Joe's locations in the valley. Tons of parking and a very clean and well kept store. My interactions with all the associates have always been bright and sunny like Palm Springs. As far as the election goes, they do carry most of your favorites and classics. However, I do wish they have the small individual fruit and cream yogurt for sale like the Palm Desert Location location. However, I have been coming here for years now and while it can get busy during peak hours of the afternoon, this is one of those classic stops for when you need a quick dinner idea or a splurge snack at home. read more

Stopped by Trader Joe's to get some spring water, snacks on the way back to the hotel. This location is bigger and looks newer than our local Trader Joe's. Everything was well organized, clean and staff was nice as usual. Came here 2 more times to get snacks and it's only about 8 minutes from our hotel. Will be back to when in Palm Springs area. read more

*Stuck in the Middle* Not too many places I can say that my life wouldn't be the same without it. But this is where Trader Joe's fits into my life. Luckily for me, nearly the past 2 years, I've been right smack in the middle of two amazing Trader Joe's locations, not too far from home -- this one and Palm Desert. This is a good problem to have because both locations are equipped with incredible team members who are always so friendly and helpful...and go above & beyond. And the customers here are friendly too. They're also equipped with the handfuls of items I rely on, that's usually in stock...but if not, they always offer to let me "know when it'll be in stock" or "keep it on hold" for me. Tho I prefer the layout at other locations, this one suits me well and the store is always neat & clean. Never a problem with parking here no matter how busy they are. When the lines are long they still move fast ~~ even with all the small talk & chit-chatting while checking out. TJ's continues to be the Ace of my grocery store starting rotation. Not much more I can say about TJ's that hasn't already from everyone who loves this place. I've been shopping at various TJ's ever since my late teens...and as I've already expressed & confessed, my life wouldn't be the same without it. {{{Big~High~Five}}} Walk-off Grandslam...

Trader Joe's is one of the most reliable and dependable chains you can find, consistently ranging from very similar to identical, no matter where one might be. It's not a place I go to for all of my everyday shopping, but there are several key items which always draw me back. Some of the frozen selections are quite unique, like the Taiwanese street pancake knockoffs, and some of the seasonal items are only to be found at TJ's, like the boxed turkey gravy, with a very long home shelf life, excellent in flavor and texture, but only available around Thanksgiving. The pastas are excellent and in a nice size for a couple, and we especially like the many varieties of raviolis. The produce is consistently fresh and well packaged and the cereal selection is delicious. Cheeses are bountiful and we particularly appreciate the thin sliced chicken breast, saving us from the need to butterfly and pound a larger breast. The only reason I am giving the Cathedral City store a four, and this is something which bedevils one at many other Trader Joe's, is the difficulty in parking, with an insufficient number of handicapped spaces. read more

I did used to visit TJs weekly, until they stopped selling their two ingredient soy milk. Most of their foods, even those you think may be "healthy" are far from healthy and super processed with a lot of oils and sugars and so much of their produce is packaged in plastic. read more

I just love this store. This plave is akways kept so clean. The shelves are continually kept in a neat order. I know the produce is always fresh. .The food items never have expired dates on them. They carry all my favorite brands. They carry many of their own brands. The potato chips sometimes have seasonal special. Mynfavorite being the dark potato chips, and Carolina Gold are soo good, but not available all year. Holidays are fun because they bring in holiday specials, like pecan pie and gingerbread houses. And the ice cream changes at times, like the lemon ice cream is only availabe for a short time.. read more

Love this Trader Joe's ! Always has what I need . Great prices and quality of items .

I always love Trader Joe's. This store had everything I needed. We don't have any Trader Joe's in hawaii so always have lots of requests to bring back stuff. This time I got an ABNB with a kitchen so was able to take advantage of trying the frozen prepared foods. The Bulgogi was very yummy and for $4 can't beat that price. Also tried the Smog City Grape IPA which was surprisingly tasty and refreshing. The staff were all super friendly. Recommend this location to get all you grocery and snacks. read more

Love me a Trader Joe's and I am always so happy when there is one in a location where I'm vacationing. Takes the guess work out of what to stock up on. Visited the Palm Cannon Road location over Thanksgiving and they already had many of the classic and in demand holiday items. I was so wishing I could buy enough to being home but I travel with a tiny suitcase! That didn't stop me from buying lots of great products for our nightly appetizer boards. My favorite cheese is Delice de Bourgogne, a French classic triple crème that is so decadent and delicious, and the price at Traders is better than anywhere. My 2nd fave is the Stilton with apricots or ginger. The perfect combo. To round out the charcuterie, picked up packages of pre-sliced Italian meats, prosciutto, cashews, fig spread, castelvetrano olives, figs, dried apricots and the fig & olive crisps. Perfect! Of course we needed some "treats" too!for dessert we picked up the chocolate pecan tart. It's fabulous! Try it! Instead of the super sweet molasses filling of a pecan pie, this version has a dense chocolate custard in a shortbread crust with pecans on top. I like it so much better. Lots of my favorite holiday treats and gift items were in stock - 12 tastes of caramel, passport chocolates, peppermint Joe-Joe's, gingerbread cookies that hang on your mug - but I will wait until I'm home to do a full grocery run. During Covid, they have implemented lots of procedures to keep everyone safe. The line to get into the store moves quickly and limiting the number of people in the store means you get in and out faster. They are providing hand sanitizer and wipes for the carts, they bag your groceries, everyone is wearing masks, staff and customers. And most important, the staff is super friendly and helpful; amazing they keep their spirits up through the pandemic and holiday shopping. Well, done! read more

When at home, Trader Joe's is our supplemental grocery store for unique items or to make up shortages between supermarket runs. On the vacation, Trader Joes means some meal supplies and snacks. On business, it's stuff to munch on in a nearby hotel room. This Trader Joe's is a bit on the small side and during the 2-3 times we were here recently, you really needed to keep watch on various shopper carts darting here and there. As expected, Trader Joe's staff were friendly, helpful, and took the sometimes scrum in stride. And of course, I always appreciate finding a Trader Joes in my Travels and when I least expect it. read more

Love this Trader Joe's with so many items that cannot be found at our local store. Yes, I took pictures of the food selections we do not have, as I couldn't buy and try them all. We stocked up for a week in Palm Springs with fresh organic veggies, mushroom brie, and those insanely delicious gnocci that were discontinued at my store. It's also large enough that employees are not constantly blocking the aisles to restock, and there is actually open space for carts when waiting in line to check out. You can also reach the store by driving in the side road past the go-kart racing and get to the large parking lot! read more

I love everything about this grocery store. There are always new foodie and personal hygiene surprises. Hello rose water toner that my husband swears by. Their cheeses are extraordinary. I think my favorite was a garlic white cheddar infused with champagne? Just yum. The employees are always so helpful and friendly and knowledgeable about what is and isn't in stock. They don't have to go around searching leaving you shifting and waiting in the same spot so they can find you when they figure out the answer. Frozen mashed potatoes? (don't judge) Nope, they've been out of stock for a week. They should be back in two. Boom. Answers. I love it. Also, had to add. I bought a bouquet of roses that lasted a little over three weeks before they started wilting. I've never had that. So all in all, great selection, great people and great layout. High five Trader Joe's. read more

It was both a surprise and a pleasure last month to find that my favorite store in the universe was also the first in the area that I know of to switch to an honor system as regards customers wearing masks. When I was there yesterday nearly everyone was still opting to wear them, but how nice that those who no longer need them have a place to go where they can breathe freely while they shop. I also love that they are gradually but continually adding chocolate products that contain 72% or more cacao - that's the healthiest kind. TJ's has always been chocolate heaven but I used to have to keep my blinders on and regretfully walk past all those silky Belgian varieties. No one has to be deprived these days though, unless allergic. They also sell excellent cacao powder which costs about half what you'd pay for the same quality at health food stores and, usually, even online. read more

Decent Trader Joes. This TJ's is much smaller then the stores you may find in LA or OC, but they have most of the good stuff we go to TJ's for. Staff are ultra friendly and double helpful. The store is well stocked, and clean, but rather cramped. It shares a parking lot with a Target, a kids theme park, and some fast food joints. Not the upscale location one might expect from TJ's. You are not going to stroll next door for a coffee or anything. But on the bright side, there are acres of free parking. Masking was spotty at best. Most staff are masked and most patrons... are not. This is the only TJ's in the Palm Springs area. If you love TJ's like I do, dive in! read more

Trader Joe's has always been my number one place to shop. This particular TJs became my new location when I moved to Palm Springs a few years back. It has always been busy and I really have liked the staff even though so many people have come and gone...some really nice employees remain. I still shop here although it used to be the only place I bought groceries....that has changed with so many items either not available or have changed and with TJs prices really soaring above other stores it has become my second store for some of my regular items that they still have. It is still a great place...I love it....but things have changed. Still a great place to go. read more

Every time i have visited Trader Joe's in past 6 months they do not have stock on many things. "They keep running out of essential items because the corporate rations stock and it is managed like communist china. Is there a cash flow problem?
