    I've never been a huge Trader Joe's person. It seems like they have a lot of specialty products, but not a huge variety of regular stuff. I decided to stop by to try to get some of their ube stuff I had seen online. I was able to find the Ube Mochi which we liked. The other reason I'm not a big TJs fan is that it just seems chaotic. It's usually crowded and I personally can't ever seem to find what I'm looking for in the store with how it's organized. The parking situation here is similarly chaotic to me. It's small and hard to navigate. I'm sure the die hard fans will disagree with me, but I probably won't be back until I see something else online that's interesting enough to pull me in.

    A short queue outside at 8:50 AM and that was completely gone within five minutes of the store opening on the dot at 9:00 AM. Carts were at a premium. Masks required for entry. Inside, the store was busy (it was at the legal capacity) with folks going both ways down the one-way aisles and getting entirely too close to each other. I found a few great items that we love, including the chocolate covered potato chips, chocolate covered espresso beans, some frozen gyoza and the fabulous Israeli feta cheese (it's in a blue container, can't miss it). Checkout was efficient and quick. Back outside again, they were wiping down carts. There is also a table for folks who want to put their purchases into reusable shopping bags. Tip: Park in the back. There's a breezeway to get to the front of the shopping center and there is more space back there. [Review 13845 overall, 1167 of 2020, number 2536 in North Carolina.]

    I never write reviews, but I HAVE to praise this Trader Joe's. If you're a mom and you're not shopping here, you're doing it wrong. I have a 6 month old and a 2.5 year old and I'm usually shopping with at least one of them . Someone insists on walking out with me every time to help load up my bags and return the cart. Don't get me started on if it's raining... they will escort you to your car with an umbrella. I just can't say enough about the incredible customer service they ALWAYS provide. Thank you T Joes!!!!

    Been a TJ's Customer since the beginning (Pronto Market, Pasadena) days. Unfortunately the South Charlotte store's miserable parking lot & store layout have only been made worse by their COVID gorilla tactics! FREE SPIRIT in Hawaiian shirts has been replaced by RULES & enforcers! Oh and the nuts. Loved their nuts until I recently picked up a bag of pumpkin seeds from EITHER "Mexico or Guatemala." Odd that they are not required to list the dirt, shells & other trash on their "ingredient" label? Used to go out of my way to hunt for hidden gems at Traders, not any more...

    What a selection of produce!

    So we visited this Trader Joe's store in the evening about an hour before they closed. I have been here only a few times and wanted to show my dad the different variety of foods you can get here specially the variety of organic foods. We were not disappointed with the variety at this location. Before we walked in, I was happy to see powered carts available for .those with disabilities. My dad is a disabled veteran so that was a huge bonus that they have those powered carts and that there were many available. When we first walked in, we noticed the beautiful plants and garden accessories that adorn the front the store. We wanted one of all those beautiful plants! As we began walking around we smelt an excellent coffee aroma coming from the back of the store. The store had a free sample area with coffee and cookie samples! We couldn't resist and picked out a great medium roast coffee. Also, i couldn't believe the great price of under $5.00 for a box of their Keurig versions of the coffee! What a great deal because it tastes so good even better than much more expensive coffee's in other stores. My dad thought it might a good idea to see if they sold coconut oil. I asked a clerk in the back of the store and she walked me to the product! Wow, it's so rare to find good service like that but this store definitely goes the extra mile. She took me right to the coconut oil and they even had TWO VERSIONS on the shelf! We bought both! As we headed back up front we noticed they have quite a selection of great frozen dinners. Also this store has a unique and amazing selection of peanut butters. They have, no kidding, sunflower seed butter and cashew butter! Can't wait to try those! As we checked out, there were chocolates and candles that smelt incredible right at the checkout. Those were very tempting. I highly recommend shopping here and at least try out the different variety of foods even if organic isn't your thing. We loved it! The store also had quite a selection of wines for a store that's on the small side. I gave this store 4 stars out of 5 only because the size of this store is small but still it's an excellent store with great service!

I asked for a Turkey, bacon and cheese sub. He goes to say, "oh that's extra meat". I asked, how? Then went to say that I've never been told that and I'm there often. The guy continues on with his reasonings. I was lost and confused by this time. So, I let him know that I didn't mind paying for what I wanted. That was just some new info to me. He started going about how not charging affects his bonus pay and this that and the third. I didn't ask him for any of that info. Carried out so bad, he ended up burning up the bacon. I kindly let him know he burned my bacon. He picks it up and look at it. I replied again, "it's burned, I don't want it"... Trying to be nasty and look, bacon turned out to be useless. Hopefully "he's" paying for it, smh. And I doubt that he will. I never want to encounter him ( older, black American guy) again.'Never had that problem with anyone else. Sometimes the line can be extra long or there's been a time when they were out of white bread(but the young guy, took care of that for me)... This guy was rude, too old to carry the situation out like he did. I was fresh off work, tired and all(still in uniform). I had no time for that type energy. I was trying to grab dinner and get home. That's it and that is all. I work in an executive kitchen in Uptown, we please and take care of our customers. I would do the same and give the same energy even if it was QT, Subway and any other place. I ended up purchasing the sub as well as a pack of Oscar Myers fully cooked bacon strips( again I do not mind, paying for what I want). The service and experience was horrible. He needs to stay off front line. Especially tell me, the customer... "If I don't charge, it affects my bonus. Go get who usually serves you and I'll tell them too. See, I don't mind. They must not know"... ... Pissed me off, so UNPROFESSIONAL. I'm sure the few who were behind me in line heard him also. They ended up walking away.

Items are often out of stock, and it's not always predictable what will or won't be available, which makes it hard to rely on for regular shopping. The takeaway bar can also be hit or miss--many times items are unavailable, and when they are, some of the hot bar items can be on the dry side. The cut fruit has also been inconsistent--either underripe or overripe, with very little in between. Overall, great quality when everything is stocked and fresh, but consistency (both inventory and prepared items) needs improvement.

I worked/lived in Northern Va for 15 years and would drive distances to do my grocery shopping there. BUT, this location is without a doubt THE most challenging location. For many reasons. The store lay out is like a jig saw puzzle. In no way does it follow the layout of all the other stores I've been to. The WORST part is the entry/exit and parking. Most every time I've been, there is always a near miss with someone pushing a cart with everything but groceries in the driveway entrance/exit. The most recent experience is why I finally decided to post this review as a WARNING. Beware, there are people who act as though they are trying to get hit. You can draw your own conclusions as to why but it's a fact. Yesterday, this person is approaching the entry crossing pushing a cart. I'm making a right turn off Central into the lot. We make eye contact, they stop as I inch closer into the entry way...then they STOP right in the middle of the crossing and act like they are pulling up their PANTS off the ground. There are vehicles behind me on the horn because they can't see what's going on. It's a highly dense, intense traffic location. On every side there are pedestrians, cyclers, dog walkers and people pushing carriages.
