    Seasonal items as of 9/9/22
    Samantha R.

    I like this Trader Joe's. The staff is friendly and they almost always have sufficient stock of everything I'm looking for here. Trader Joe's as a company has amazing specialty products but I also go to them for the staples (pasta sauce, hash browns, etc.) and this store delivers on both fronts. My favorite regular product that they sell are frozen potato pancakes (latkes). It's also great that a lot of their products now have instructions for how to heat/cook it with an air fryer. My biggest point of feedback is that the spacing of the aisles are way off. When you first walk in it's surprising how big the produce section is. I was excited to maybe experience a Trader Joe's that wasn't going to be super claustrophobic but with how much space you have on the exterior border of the store, some of the inside aisles are really crowded. The two aisles I can think of are the granola bars/dessert aisle and the frozen fruit/frozen potato aisle. Both are so crowded that there is little room to walk and pass people if there are two flows of traffic (which there almost always are). This isn't the most comfortable experience with COVID-19 and trying to keep space from people. One last point of feedback, the crew members/mates (that's what they call their employees) dedication to customer service is 10/10. I recently went to the store and asked when some of their specific Fall items would arrive on the shelves and they were kind enough to tell me the exact day to come back for an item. Overall, this is a great store.

    Insulated cooler works great and cool color/design!

    I love the TJ at this location. They generally have what I need and the staff is super friendly. There are always TJ employees working on the floor and will cheerfully help you find something. Also on my last trip, I had a lot of errands to do so I bought an insulated cooler to keep my frozen/cold items from going bad. Without ice, all my groceries stayed frozen/cold for almost an hour after I left the store. So happy with my purchase and will be keeping this cooler in my car for future trips!

    Always crowded but it has an overall nice atmosphere the staff are always super nice and they usually have pretty much everything I need but prices are more expensive and some of the brands aren't the typical brands of food. Better than target for produce but not for other foods unless you're specifically looking for organic specialty foods.

    Decent place for those with milk allergies. I just wish one was closer to me. Prices are comparable on some items and pricey on others.

    For other generic items like eggs, fruit, protein, it may be cheaper to go across the street to Giant Eagle.

    I have enjoyed shopping here since it has opened roughly 16 years ago. They have always had great…read morestaff and the products are usually pretty good quality. I also appreciate the fair return policy, if something is wrong they refund your money and also you can replace the item. They don't give you any grief if you need to return something like Giant Eagle. They have certainly expanded their selection and the quality has always been good. The only issue is that the items come and go just like Trader Joe's. I love the hummus chips that pop up every once in a while, but then they go away quickly. I have always loved the fact that they never use plastic bags, which is very sustainable. It is very good to have them in the neighborhood. Please note: if you park out in the front you will not be able to transport your groceries in a cart out to your car. The store is wired so that the cart gets locked up if you try to leave out of the front door. This can suck if the back parking lot is full.

The selection of products is smaller than what many other grocery stores offer, and the prices are low to moderate. My husband and I shopped at this ALDI in the South Side one time. We saw a decent variety of fruits, vegetables, dairy products, eggs, meats, seafoods, snacks, pantry items, beverages, and other products. My husband commented that the chicken cost less than the chicken at other grocery stores. We purchased several snack foods and beverages for a stay in a nearby hotel. The cashier performed their job well. We did not have to wait in line for long, and the transaction had no errors.

I'm regularly coming in for a roast beef sandwich, lettuce, tomato, mayo on rye bread and they make it just the way I ask them because I'm fussy like that. But they smile and they laugh at me when I roll my eyes and tell them that I know I'm difficult. I truly appreciate that they have high-quality fresh produce, excellent meats, pantry staples, a quality selection of crackers and cookies, Bread Works bread, and the best local ice creams. But they also have ready to bake hors d'oeuvres and fancy little tidbits for a last-minute party. I don't know what our neighborhood would do without them.

I miss this place now and whenever I'm around I am very tempted to get a sandwich. They really do it right here, this is one of the best in the city. They have a great menu selection for recommendations. Everything is made to order so you can add or subtract almost anything you can think of to your sandwich. The selection of groceries and deli offerings are always fresh. The have the Boar's Head brand of deli meats and cheeses, great selection. If you dive into the grocery selection you'll find a lot of special things there, fresh, frozen and dry: Meats, cheeses/dairy, breads, snacks, condiments, baking items, beverages... Some interesting vegan options are here too. This is a very curated and enjoyable market. Shopping here got my household through some hard times during the pandemic. I can't say enough good things, if you are ever in the area you should stop in and check it out.
