Five stars I love it! Always well organized and well stocked with a very friendly staff. Maybe one of the best flower selections at a grocery store. I bought my wife "garden roses" one time and she has not stopped telling people about them. Hint hint guys. Frozen food selection is one of the best I have ever seen. My wife loves the beauty and skin care products especially the body butter, the moisture surge that is just like Clinique but much more affordable, and the vanilla lip mask. Check out the candles! In the frozen food section the Indian food such as paneer masala and butter chicken are our go to buys. And again, the staff is awesome. So, ask them for suggestions or where to find something or for something you can't find. read more

When I tell you how excited I was to finally get a Trader Joe's in Hoover, I am not kidding because I was so happy. While the one on 280 was fine , this one is much closer to home. And much easier to park at. I absolutely love Trader Joe's because it has a little bit of everything, and at such affordable prices, even on organic items. I am a creature of habit, so I like to get all my meal prep in one place if all possible. The fruits, vegetables from Trader Joe's just taste better and I feel cleaner after enjoying them. The staff are always kind and offer compliments from time to time as well. Overall I love Trader Joe's is such a blessing to the Hoover Community and the surrounding areas. read more

Trader Joe's is one of those stores where you plan to grab three things and somehow leave with ten. The selection is fun, the prices are reasonable, and the staff is always incredibly friendly. I especially love browsing the snacks, wine and frozen section...there's always something new to try. The store has a relaxed, neighborhood vibe that makes grocery shopping feel a little less like a chore. This one doesn't have as many wine options as the one at The Summit but this one Is still my fav! read more

Finally made it out to the new Trader Joe's out near the Galleria. Pros: the parking is certainly easier than The Summit location, there's more space to navigate the aisles, shelves are shorter so you can see the vastness of the room more (idk what kind of Bond villain comment this is, but go with it), and this store is generally less crowded, I was here on a Saturday afternoon. Cons: the store seems to have a slightly smaller floral and wine selection than its Birmingham counterpart, the produce selection seems a bit smaller too, it's a bit less vibe-y, and the shelves are shorter leaving more opportunity to be spotted by my hypothetical Bond hero. Overall, this is a great store for a quick run-in. By the nature of Trader Joe's, you're not going to find everything you need. The staff was all incredibly friendly. I'm glad to see that we're using up these old, closed box stores with things that will be used, though! read more

This was my first time to this location. It was easy to find and it had ample parking. The lot and outside of the store was nice and clean with their signature red carts nicely contained outside on the sidewalk. I was pleased to see they have more electric carts than the 280 location. I was surprised to see the beautiful array of flowers and plants as I walked in the door and along the wall. I had heard from more than one source that this location did not have a good flower selection and that is just not true. The inside of the store was clean and well organized with isles a bit wider than I'm used to, which is a good thing. There were some of the packages in produce that seemed to slip under the radar and showed signs of age on the produce, the Asian stir-fry in particular. I went through five containers, spotting slimy veg, before giving up. I really hated that because it's one of my favorite items. The store seemed well stocked and employees were friendly and helpful. read more

For this size store, the flowers, produce, and wine sections are generous. There was a great selection, and everything looked fresh. The meat department was also pretty well stocked. The location is closer to me than their other one, and parking is much better and easier to get in and out. There are a lot of unique items that are fun to add to your routine. They have some cookies called Jo-Jos that are similar to mainstream sandwich-cream cookies, but they have interesting seasonal flavors, too, that taste far better than the name brand. The only down-side is I can't imagine doing my regular weekly shopping there. The items seem to be so unique that I'd consider them add-on or periodic grocery buys instead of staples. However, I will absolutely come here if I'm looking for something different. read more

My husband and I decided to stop by this Trader Joe's on yesterday. Y'all... it was absolutely packed with people. I felt like I had missed a memo or something. Of course, they have lots of specialty items. We ended up getting some cheese. I feel like Trader Joe's is hyped up a lot and maybe I'm just not getting it, but a lot of other people are buying into the hype. I would probably want to come back here when there were less people so I could really look around. read more

Food shopping at its best!! You arrive and see flowers outside. And since we're almost at Thanksgiving, there are natural wreaths, garlands, poinsettias and other Christmas greenery. And, reasonably priced. Then, to your left, great produce! Fresh, appealing, reasonably priced: salad mixes, vital greens, normal fruit and vegetables. But then--artichokes, cooked and fresh beats, endive, multi-colored carrots, huge portobello mushrooms, all kinds of mushrooms; reasonably priced. I'm in Cook's Heaven. Then, head to breads, uncured meats, cheeses and wine. Your holiday party will be the best ever; and you won't have to take out a loan!! On the service, I asked a team member about two cheeses I couldn't find. He took me to their in-store computer that shows current inventory. They are out, but cheeses coming in tomorrow. They had to pull the two French cheeses because of expiration date. "But", I said, "Cheeses don't expire, they continue to age, like wine". "Yes, I agree", he said. " But the grocery-buying public is used to following expiration dates; so we have the pull the products" Quel domage! read more

TJ's is the only grocery store I look forward to shopping at. It's cute, fun, concise, and mostly affordable. The people who work here are not as flamboyantly fun as the ones who work at the 280 location. They don't yell welcome to Trader Joe's when you walk in and don't make small talk about your selections. That's okay I'm an introvert and appreciate the calm. But praise God for having one free from 280 and Summit traffic. The workers here are constantly doing inventory, at least that's what I think they're doing. So many of them just jotting things down standing in front of items. I love coming here because there isn't option overload. You just get what you need and go home. It's fully stocked all the time minus some items in produce. I first was introduced to the Nashville location many years ago and I made so many silent prayers that we get one in Birmingham. Rushed to the 280 summit location but disliked having to go to such a commercial area for fun groceries. But I've been to this location every week. It's my little weekly grocery trip. read more

Always a great little store or in this case it feels double the size of the Summit location. The Crew is always happy to see you and a large chuck came from the other store. Be sure to pickup some flowers; cookie butter; but say hello to the Crew. read more
