Tatum and Mari were so kind. I am disabled and on crutches and the shopping experience was very positive and everyone was quite supportive of me and my service dog. Mary helped me out to the car and Tatum was incredibly friendly. He was the cashier so just wanna give you guys good feedback read more

This was the second time at this Trader Joe's, it's one of the bigger ones that I have seen allowing easy navigation thru the aisles. It also has the most cash registers ( I believe 9) that I have seen in a TJ. Team members on the floor were all helpful and pleasant. When I asked a team members where a specific item was located the team member would walk me over to where the product was to ensure I found it quickly. When we went to checkout was when things started going wrong. We got behind a customer who was just finishing up when Jaime T (per our receipt) came over and got us stating there was no wait in his line. I handed Jaime our reusable bags who then stated "Just put those at the back of the check stand". At that point I told Jaime I would be right back, I was going to grab a case of water. When I returned 2 minutes later Jaime was 3/4 done with the checkout however I noticed my spouse was starting to bag our own items, and not the way TJ team members normally bag purchases (neatly with maximizing the space in the bags). We were checking out at 11:20, the other open check stands had one or no customers in them and Jaime had no one behind us at his checkout. My spouse stated it wasn't a big deal but when you have one TJ team member not doing what you have come to expect it is disappointing. I hope this was just a one off event and not an ongoing behavior of this one TJ team member. read more

Alaya went above and beyond all expectations helping me and my new husband get florals for our wedding. She actively listened to our wants, budget, and helped guide us with types, styling, and the execution for the care and assembly of our florals. Furthermore, her attitude and confidence was infectious and left us with the most amazing impression. We would also like to thank the rest of the team members who were there day of our pickup that brought their positivity and excitement for us and gave us an amazing overall experience. Clearly, Alaya is an expert in her field and supported by a fantastic team that we were grateful to be uplifted by. read more

I love all the Trader Joes but this one is especially nice. It's in a large shopping center with plenty of parking. The store seems larger than others with slightly bigger isles. The workers are always nice and the store seems to be well staffed whenever I am there. This time before I went I checked to see what was new and found a vegan pesto that ended up being really good. read more

Thank you to the Petaluma Trader Joe's team for helping make our wedding centerpieces perfect! I was able to call and place an order from Orange County. We asked for roses and baby's breath. When we picked them up, it was easy and quick. All the flowers were in boxes and water for us to carry out. I just wanted one rose and some baby's breath in mixed glass bottles. It was perfect! Thank you. Also, very cost-friendly! read more

I want to share a story that happened to me today that sums up beautifully the kindness of the staff here. My mom passed away 3 days ago. She loved Trader Joe's and when she could no longer drive, every time I visited her in Sacramento she'd have a list of her favorite TJ's items for me to pick up. As she was in the hospital (she kept thinking she was home) she asked repeatedly for the Trader Joe's room spray- I had to remind her she wasn't at home. Today, I stopped at Trader Joe's near my home and had to pick up the room spray to honor my mom. When it was rung up I began to cry. I explained my mom had just died. A minute later an employee showed up with a beautiful bouquet of flowers & handed them to me saying she was sorry for my loss. Although I cried more, I was incredibly touched by this very kind gesture. Thank you for this read more

Trader Joe's - The store My fav besides novato - Grocery Near Me - Petaluma, California

Great! Clean and smelled good. They had everything I needed. No unfinished grocery list. Joe the cashier was super chill. Give him a raise!

As of today, March 1, 2022, the store has improved significantly since Covid restrictions and they deserve a huge shout out! First, their customer service is amazing with a caring mature staff who are ON IT! At the time of this writing, TJ's organic berries are actually less expensive than at Costco! Their flower selection is pleasantly diverse, although a tad pricey. Haven't seen the $.99 tulips in a couple of years, but that's par for the course at any Trader Joe's. One of the best things about this store is their new line of organic eggs. In particular, the ones in the blue package labeled "Pasture Raised" are $4 a dozen and are truly the best eggs I've tasted in almost 2 decades, with dark yellow yolks that impart a creamy quality. The cut flower selection and card selection has also improved significantly, so you can dash in and out with flowers and a card easily for under $10. Now if they had a better selection of jammy Zinfandels and crisp, floral Sauvignon Blancs, they'd get 5 stars right now! Keep up the great work TJ's! read more

On 9/17 I felt so discriminated by a lady (employee) given some sort of mix nuts sample. I NEVER ask for any sample in my life specially for this type of situations. I got close to sample site. My fingers not even touched the outside part of the disposable cup when I grabbed another cup instead. This lady in the most rude, condescending manner told me "oh no you need to grab both your dirty hand already touch that cup" my hand was not dirty in first place and I understand her being proactive and thinking about food and handling but that not a way to treat somebody in the middle of the store in front of such multicultural diverting population. She just could kindly dispose the cup herself if that was her concern. Not a good experience. I spend a good part of my paycheck on that store on a monthly basis plus I own a business. Not good at all. read more

Sad excuse for a grocery. Maybe has some unique specialty items.....but sorely lacking in many basics so requires a trip to another real grocery store. Not for me. read more

Joe's is the perfect source for stocking up on camping food. Grabbed salmon, rib eye, and stir fry vegetables. Our meals were set for a weekend of camping. I appreciate the convenient packaging where I was able to store in our cooler with no fuss. I also discovered their "Everything But The Bagel" ketal potato chips. The flavor reminded me of my favorite Japanese "Butter Shoyu" snacks. My must have going forward. read more

The food here gives healthy and adorable. Our cashier was super nice. Angelica and Ashika are cool too.

Huge shout out to Alaya who always helps me find beautiful flowers. I have a luxury picnic business, Picnic Potential, and often need flowers for photoshoots and centerpieces. Alaya is well versed in all things floral but is also super helpful and I appreciate her level of service. read more

Have been going to this Trader Joe's for years and the service has been superb forever. Always seems to be hiring the younger generation and they are always very respectful to me and my family. We love Trader Joe's. read more

Great store had everything I needed. Lots of parking easy to go in and get what I needed.

By far my favorite store out of all the TJ's in there area. It's always very clean and well stocked. The staff is always friendly, just the other day I was in there and couldn't find a few items so I asked one of the employees (Austin) for help. He was so helpful and very patient while helping me locate the items. Also, I appreciate the COVID protocols there at the store as well, they do exceptional job in their efforts to keep the public safe read more

Great deals and late hours. Could use more hot ready items, but plenty of gluten free and paleo choices. read more

Very nice trader joes. Service was fast and friendly. A little bit of a mess outside around the cart sanitizing wipes.

I wanted to do the flowers for my daughters wedding and struggled with where to start and how to approach this goal. I could not have done this without the incredible expertise of Alaya, the person in charge of the floral dept at Trader Joe's. She made herself available for all of my questions and ideas, providing suggestions and support as we figured out colors, types of flower arrangements and quantities including how to create a unique and beautiful bouquet. She even helped me load my car with all the the buckets, securing them so they wouldn't spill. Alaya made it fun and the centerpieces/ Bridal bouquet were gorgeous. Alaya is my hero. I can't thank her enough for all of her help. read more

Amazing location! I want to give a special shoutout to Dawn- she went above and beyond tonight and left us feeling the holiday spirit! Great service! read more

Environmentally irresponsible. You can't buy veggies here that aren't wrapped in plastic. With everything we now know about BPA and heightened estrogenic activity (EA), which has been linked to serious health effects like extremely low "nanomolar" levels. And new research reported that it also causes serious damage to the gut lining. Also they still use BPA on the lids of pickles, tomato sauce, olives, ect. These chemicals are accumulating from mother to child over generations. If you want to read about new research that links BPA to leaky gut and IBS. . https://draxe.com/bpa-toxic-effects/?rs_oid_rd=605160896161165&utm_campaign=20180713_week28_curated_newtemplate&utm_medium=email&utm_source=smart+blast read more

Just wanted to finally rate TJs Petaluma after visting close to 100 times. It's our favorite store, and hard to fault. The staff always seem in a good mood, happy to answer questions, and actually in plain sight to ask, unlike an adjacent grocery store I won't mention. The selection is awesome. A special shoutout to Billy, who was super efficient and friendly in ringing me up tonight. Good luck to your aunt in Australia Billy! You definitely feel like you're treated like a human being in this store, and I love they don't have those blasted automated checkouts (which actually fail half the time, and put people out of jobs). 5 stars to this store. read more

Well I used to really enjoy shopping here The staff used to be really friendly and attentive Not anymore I went twice over the weekend and both times upon checking out The staff members did not greet with a hello just rang my items and blurted out the total And at the same time talking to a co worker about personal things What happened here ??? This is the kind of thing that makes me shop elsewhere Is it too much to ask for the basic customer service??? read more

On our way to the Sonoma coast we made a quick stop at nearby Lagunitas Brewing. We picked up some beverages to go and wanted to bolster our stock of snacks and treats to compliment our freshly procured beer. A quick look on the Yelp app and we were able to find this location in very close proximity. It was in a rather large, relatively new shopping center with plentiful parking. I was greeted on the way in and per usual with all my experiences with Trader Joe's the covid protocols were very solid in place. the lay out was very typical Trader Joe's. I went straight to the cheeses and found the selection to be very good. It's been my experience that the cheese selection can vary by location in large part (from what I have heard) in relation to the demand the store experiences. This one in particular had all the standards and maybe a few beyond that. Again a very welcome selection and as per usual more than competitively priced. The bread selection was next and once again I located all the standard offering and was able to quickly acquire just what I needed. We were hoping to sample some of the local bread offerings from the handful of top notch bakeries in the area but they were closed during the early part of the week. What was purchased work out well for the cheese and meats purchased. The selection of meats was spot on and as usual I took just a moment of searching to find the sticks of salamis. A few fruit items, some crackers, nuts, dried fruits and other salty snack foods and Iw as out the door. Checkout was smooth and though we were all wearing masks makes were apparent the exchange at the register. All in all it took about 15 minutes from the door to out the door. In the past this stop would have involved a trek up to Santa Rosa and I could not be happier this one was so close. No doubt the locals feel just the same. Thanks Trader Joe's for placing a store here and thanks to the wonderful staff at tis location. read more

Being in business for 50 years in a competitive supermarket space is not an easy task. They must be doing something right. And, they do. They don't compete in price (so, if price is the only variable for you, don't go there). Rather, they provide fresh and quality products. They also do wonderful job training their cashiers. They are courteous, fast, and accurate. Way to go. read more

Who was the operations/store management genius who decided to eliminate the 15 items-or-less/express line. There is no doubt in my mind that he or she has never been grocery shopping before. Why, in the wide world of sports, would you want to stand behind someone who is shopping for the month with your single bottle of ketchup?????????????????????????????????????? If its not broke; don't fix it.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I worked that line as an employee for 2 years and everyone was EXTREMELY grateful for the speed and the ability to get on with their life. read more

Last week sometime I sent an email to Trader Joe's about how our household had to throw almost $75 of groceries in the trash because of rotten produce that appeared to be fine until you cut it open. The apples were sliced and placed in the crisper and since young and old are in our home it's not worth the risk. We never heard back. Shopping again and cut open apples and same gross white fuzzy stuff in them. I would suggest double checking yours just to make sure. I have never had an issue with Trader Joe's before and honestly I'm kinda shocked that there wasn't even a reply. Pretty crappy. If you ever have bread or anything like that that is in exposed contact with other foods, like the cut up apples inside of the drawer with a bunch of other stuff, you have to toss everything. All of it becomes tainted and will cause illnesses. read more

You know when you walk into a TJs that's new to you, and you have too many kids and not a lot of time? Not a problem here. This is a nice, spacious, and well organized TJ's. The aisles were relatively wider than my regular TJ's and the staff was super sweet. Gosh, I wish I caught dudes name but I didn't- we'll just call him Young Buck. Young Buck was the best. He literally walked around the store with my sister-in-law and I, helping us grab everything on our list in record time- GPS has nothing on Young Buck. Considering my 1 and 2 year old nephews were with us, the extra help was really above and beyond. He just kept saying, "can I help you find anything else?" He found a good part of the list- thanks Young Buck! read more

Need I say more, and I haven't even begun this review! The team at this Trader Joe's is above and beyond all expectations. The crew and staff working there are always kind and friendly, and willing to help you with any answers to your questions. I've been coming here for years, and the spirits of this team are lovely, always with a smile, never phony, always helpful. The wide selection of different styles of food speaks for itself. They have some ingredients I just won't go anywhere else for. Nothing but absolute love for our friendly, local Trader Joe's! read more

Trader Joe's is obviously a food emporium but that isn't why i shop here. truth be told, the only shopping i ever do is booze, drugs(medications, etc.) and a few chips. usually look for never seen before (by me) labels. brews: results: a good buzz, smooth brews, no character. - "boatswain heavy lift vessl ale" (2.29) 7%alc smooth brew, no character, good buzz, 3.5 stars -'boatswain double i.p.a." (2.29) 8.4%, extra hops doesn't add much bitterness, very smooth drink. worth 4 stars for the punch. on draught: -brewed in small batches by rhinelander brewing, monroe, wis. -always seem to go to trader joes has little shoppers, in and out in minutes. -note to those seeking stores not charging .10 cents per bag. there are none. it's mandated by law. read more

I have been shopping here almost every week for about a year, and I have never ever ever had a bad experience!! Best food, best prices, best employees and today was the cherry on top! You guys went above and beyond by handing out complimentary water to all of us waiting in the 100* weather waiting for our turn to come inside (covid times ppl). So generous of you all, we appreciate you!!! read more

I love me some Trader Joe's! I love the convenience of their premade salads that are fresh and hit the spot for a healthy lunch alternative. I love their addictive herb popcorn and the occasional berry scone for the road. Actually, to be truthful, there isn't much I don't find delicious here. I more than often spend more than I planned because of my lack of willpower to resist temptation. This place tends to have a lot of cashiers at hand. I usually don't have to wait long. My only complaint about this place are the aisles need some adjusting so all the sought after items aren't in the same row. It can be really difficult at peak times to weave a handheld basket around carts and patrons all seeking snack items or frozen foods. However, once that I am greeted by the friendly cashiers they have, this annoyance fades away and becomes minor. read more
