How could anyone in their right mind not absolutely LOVE this store? I have always received the best customer service more than anywhere I have ever shopped. You may say that they are just ok but you would have to be blind to the fact that they are constantly slammed and still find the time to go out of their way to help you or just breeze by and make a funny comment. Or how about the guy in the wine section just now ( I'm so mad that I can't remember his name because he was so awesome ) who stopped what he was doing to ask me if I had ever tasted the wine that I was checking out and then showed me around to some other ones that I may enjoy at a lesser price. Now that's customer service. And the food ain't bad either! read more

Trader Joe's - Best and Freshest Produce Around! - Grocery Near Me - Plano, Texas

FIRST OFF!!!!!t!!!!!!! If anyone knows Trader Joes, you know only good things! Am Imma bout to add to the list of good things! For starers, how do I know of TJ. I lived in LA for 6 years which is how I first found out about this wonderful grocery store. So when I heard that they were putting a TJ's in Plano, I was like, I wonder if its going to be the same as the locations in Cali. Also I was worried about pricing and quality. I mean, the standards of TJ's is pretty high for me. Well here I am, pumping my mom up about how great this place is! We are both excited. As this will be her first time ever shopping in this place. And what do you know $.19!!!!!!!!!! What do you think this is??!! Well for all of us TJ fans, that is the price of their bananas! All day everyday. And low and behold they are $.19 in LA too!! Yay, as the store lay out is just as I remember it being back in Cali!!! I mean I was so happy. Down to even customer service is awesome!! I'm so impressed.! Of course they sample out daily items and serve coffee/juice to sip while you shop!! The store is clean, neat, and organized. All staff is there to help if you need any assistance. The wine selection is TRULY the best. Why do I say this, Because its true. And please take a look for yourself. As they have wines from all over the place and wines at every ones price points. We all kinds of grains, fruits, veggies, meats and more, the selections can not get any better. And did I mention, the price is fair & square!! Love TJ's bagging experience. As each bag is always double bagged. The quality of nothing is lost here. Normally there are two people always checking you out. Also amazing FLOWERS here. They are fresh and very affordable. Now the parking lot is just what is. And I must say, normally people that shop at TJ's are very friendly. So stay pleasant when you arrive. Loyal i heart TJ's Trader Joes read more

Great store! First time going, was smaller than expected but was also expecting a normal grocery store size. Great options for pretty awesome prices especially for most being organic natural options. Staff is extremely caring, they went back to get better eggs as we didn't even check a couple were cracked, we ended up walking out without them because we forgot after ringing up the rest and the employee came out after us to make sure we got our eggs! So nice! read more

Trader Joe's has my heart!! I love how their pricing is different from other grocery stories. Everything is by the unit, not by the pound so you know exactly how much you're spending and your grocery total at the register doesn't surprise you. This location looked to be well kept, organized and stocked up. I went on a busy Saturday afternoon and the employees were so kind and made sure to connect with you as an individual customer. The lady at the sample station was super personable and very knowledgeable about the products she was offering for samples. I walked away with two out of three of the products in my basket!! Some of my TJ faves are the dark chocolate almond butter cups and the 21 Seasoning Salute. But there are so many hidden gems at TJ that you just have to go and see for yourself. You won't regret it! read more

Trader Joe's - FRESH SAMPLE AREA - Grocery Near Me - Plano, Texas

This was my first visit to Trader Joes. It's not too far from my house, so I decided to check it out. I was impressed with the amount of rare foods they carry. Everything I bought can't be found at a traditional grocery store and the food products are quality. I can't wait to go back! I only noted one negative: The prepared meals/frozen meals are scattered all over the store. They don't just have one section for these types of meals. They have them on like three different aisles. It was a bit chaotic to decide on 5 meals for lunch for the week because the minute I settled on 5 on one aisle, I ran into more on another aisle and then more on another aisle, again. I suggest centralizing them in one place for an eased customer experience. The biggest plus I noted is the variety of meals and the diversity in them. They have spanish, mexican, indian, chinese, mandarin and much more. And they were all quality meals. The only other place I've seen this level of diversity in the frozen foods section is at Tom Thumb in Las Colinas. Tom Thumb is a traditional grocer, but this location really caters to people, like me, who have diverse palates I can't wait to go back to TJ! read more

I'm from the NW and love the consistency of customer service at each and every Trader Joe's. They have a standard of service that is above most like Nordstrom. They're always pleasant and willing to answer your questions and show you where/what you need. This particular store was pretty small compared to the one in Fort Worth...maybe not, maybe it was just way more congested than the others. It's located in a strip mall so that could be why. I ran in for a couple bags of popcorn (cheddar and kettle corn) for a game night a friend hosted. The popcorn seemed to last 5 minutes, if that. It was fresh and flavorful as expected. I recommend ALL of the flavors they offer. The tried and true cabernet sauvignon cost me $3 and was tasty too. I love this store and think the prices are perfect for a table of 1 or 2. If you're cooking for more than 2, you'll most likely think this place is too expensive. This location is very close to my home and I'm still trying to figure out if thats a pro or con. Pro for my belly and con for my wallet. read more

I've been shopping at Trader Joe's for years and never had an experience like I did today. I got off from work and stopped to get some wine. The cashier took my wine and told me my total. He then proceeded to take my cash and threw my change at me. I looked at him confused about why he threw money at me. The next customer walks up and he says hi how are you, did u find everything okay...which is the usual experience at Trader Joe's. So turned around and said to him. Just curious, why didn't u ask me the same questions? He said u didn't acknowledge me so I did the same to u...the other customer didn't say anything to him either but he still treated her with respect. I'm going to let u guess what color my skin is and vice versa with the other customer. When I called to speak to the mgr Logan. I was just brushed off and told I hope u have a better day. read more

They sale special items but the produce is not the best section but caned food and frozen food are much better and I like the natural juices they sale read more

Like most everyone else, I knew of Trader Joe's but didn't know anything about it. The kiddo and I happened to be in the Plano area and we drove right past it..... we hit it on the way back. It seems like in the times of the mega grocery stores that we all like to get lost in we seems to have lost that small town, "mom & pop" type of stores. There's nothing wrong with Market Street, Central Market, Kroger Marketplace or SuperTarger but it's kind of cool to go to a store that is small and has their own label. Trader Joe's has that small, laid back California feel to it. I guess being that their foundings are in Cali, it fits. It's a really friendly and warm place. Wide aisles, organic food and plenty of wine and beer. Most everything is right on par with the prices. Inexpensive spices (in grinders) a wide array of flowers, cookies, milk products including kafir and a good meat and cheese section. I just went to their website and there's a Trader Joes' on South Hulen, about 10 minutes from where I work. I plan to venture there..... They even have a little armadillo hunt to keep the kids interested. Find Banjo the Armadillo and get a prize. The staff hides a stuffed Armadillo somewhere in the store and the child (my kiddo, in this case) ends up with an organic lollipop. A pomegranate one that she really enjoyed. Stop by when you need a break from the mega stores.... read more

This location is lovely for a Trader Joe's cause it's on my way home from work. There aren't an overwhelming amount of Trader Joe's' in the Dallas area so the less I have to drive to get to one, the better. The service is wonderful here, but the store can get kinda packed and sometimes it's difficult to squeeze in and get what you need. It's a big decision on this or that item, you know? What I LOVE: - Their creativity with Halloween themed snacks and goodies! And the pumpkins. Duh. - Their Crispy Crunchy Chocolate Chip Cookies. Normally I don't like the words 'crispy' or 'crunchy' to be anywhere near my cookies, but this is an exception to the rule. I LOVE them. It's a dangerous thing leaving me alone with a tub of those. - Their Chicken Gyozas. I buy them in six (6) bag increments. No lie. Fry em up, dunk em in a mixture of vinegar and red wine vinegar with a couple drops of la-yu (not sold here) and BOOM. - The mini shopping carts. - The brown paper bag(s) you get no matter the purchase. What I DON'T love: - The way their lines are set up. - Their samples that they give out. (I'm sure it's just me) Otherwise, lovely location. I will return for my favorites when I run out without fail. Prices are a little high, but worth it due to the quality of the product. read more

Fall is here! Trader Joe's has a great selection of pumpkins to explore. We love to shop at TJ for healthy and affordable options. The chocolate chip vegan cookies are delicious and the fresh frozen food vegan options is abundant. Plano is the closet option we have from Frisco, so I don't shop there often but when I do the staff is friendly, the store is clean and easy to navigate and Nobody can pack a bag more efficiently than TJ! read more

Who doesn't love Joe, cookie butter, cauliflower rice, and the likes? I get most of my TV dinners here when I'm lazy to cook for the weekends.

*Please Read* As a first-time visitor in the Plano, TX Trader Joe's and as a new resident of Texas in general, sadly my very first visit yesterday (5/24) was met with hostility and outward unprofessionalism from one of the workers at this store, Marcellia or Arcellia (I received her name from one of the other employees, but unfortunately didn't quite hear correctly). For the sake of this feedback, though, I will refer to her as Arcellia. Typically when I went to Trader Joes back home on the east coast, its been for the pleasant atmosphere and staff -- Customer service is everything to me. After my first visit to this Plano location, however, its clear that my hand has been forced to give Whole Foods my business instead. This all started when I overheard two women having small talk directly behind me in Spanish. As a fellow fluent Spanish-speaker, I turned around in curiosity to see the faces of those who also seemed to be fluent as well. As soon as I turned around, Arcellia in an overbearingly sarcastic and ingenuine tone says, "How are you today and how can I help you?!" Before I can even respond she immediately turns her back to me and looks to the other employee and rolls her eyes. When the other employee mouths to her "what happened?", Arcellia again rolls her eyes and shakes her head with me still present and only about a foot away. I walked away in confusion and disbelief. Not only was Arcellia extremely unprofessional and dismissive, but I felt her lack of respect seemed to be driven by my appearance--a Black woman with dark skin and kinky hair. I wonder if I would have received that same response had my skin been lighter and hair texture straighter? If I had the conventional "Latinx look", which may have indicated I was a fluent Spanish-speaker, would Arcellia have greeted me with a smile and asked how my day was going? I guess I'll never know. Trader Joes, please do better with teaching your staff the importance of Customer service, Unconscious and Conscious biases, and simple, decent respect. read more

This is secretly my favorite Trader Joe's in the area even tho I live close to the Preston - Alexis location. It's large enough to have a bit extra of a selection and not feel like you're constantly squeezing past team members restocking the shelves but still feels personable. This one is also abundantly clean and well laid-out. It's the little things, am I right? Not ashamed to say we will drive out of our way to hit up this location! read more

Trader Joe's is one of my favorite places to shop! I always make an effort to stop at this one in particular as they have a great selection of wines and beers and the staff is always so nice! Trader Joe's definitely makes an effort to showcase local beers. I love that they let you just pick one can and try it--you may not want an entire six pack of a beer you don't know. So, I think it is just great that you can try one or two and then decide if you want more later on. Just like most Trader Joe's they have a massive selection of their own products with a sprinkling mix of others. I love that they always have samples for you as well as fresh coffee! I wish that there was a Trader Joe's closer to me as I just love the relaxed atmosphere and selection!! read more

You can never go wrong with Trader Joe's. I like visiting various grocery stores, I started this hobby (almost) especially after Covid broke out. I check the details what I buy, including nutrition. My diet is leaning to plant based , but I also adopt Mediterranean / Japanese diet and healthy low carb. Also, I mind the price, off course. TJ, Walmart, Sprout, Market Street, Tom Thumb, Kroger, Costco, Sam's club, WinCo, Z Tao, Mitsuwa, Ranch 99, H Mart, Jusgo, Aldi, CCCP, Natural grocers, whole foods, Horizon fresh supermarket, Patel Brothers, Ubzi Mandi, etc cetera (will expand when I want to cook those types of food) ... I visited some. Pros of TJ is below. I keep them simple. 1). Fresh 2). Price is good (Some are pricier than Walmart, Costco, but that level) 3). Healthy pick (their own brand and they carry healthy food and if you check well what you pick) 4). Safe (they want you to wear mask) 5). Friendly 6). Not too big (store size) This is one of my favorites. read more

What a wonderful location! The team here is always so friendly and ready to help! I felt especially safe shopping here during all the COVID-19 madness. They had a whole team of people dedicated to disinfecting carts, and they were well stocked on everything. Thanks for all the hard work y'all are putting in day in and day out! read more

Love TJs! Everyone is always so nice & helpful! The food there is reasonably priced & good!

I always have a fast and super friendly shopping experience here. My day literally gets better after I leave.

Overpriced, overrated, cramped and crappy check out....Enough said

I cannot believe it had been four years since I reviewed Trader Joe's. It is still my favorite specialty grocery store. The Plano location is my favorite because it has plenty of parking and very friendly and helpful staff.

Oh, how I wish Trader Joe's was located in Las Colinas! Joe, if I beg, will you come here? If I build it, will you come?! For anyone who has not been in a TJ, think of it being a Whole Foods in the infant years. All of the stores are small. Friendly staff who look like they stepped out a time machine from the 60's, very Granola and cool. Love it! They have a nice variety of frozen veg options. Their Madras veggie burgers were phenomenal, and shockingly low in price. And what about their 2 Buck Chuck? Well, it's not anymore 2 bucks (see, I have been an avid customer for a long time) but it is still cheap Charles Shaw wine for a think $4 now- inflation, you know. Usually cheap wine sucks, but Joe comes through again with high quality and low prices. Good job, Joe, good job. I heart u read more

A woman could eat healthy on a budget thanks to Trader Joe's!!! I walked in and thought, "This is a grocery store." I haven't been in a store that felt like that since I was a kid. It was small, okay, but it was small like a neighborhood grocery store! I felt happy already. I went straight to the wine section to buy a gift. I'd heard about 2 buck Chuck for years, read the Yelp advice, and searched through their Online flyer. I picked a couple of wines and decided to quickly walk through the aisles just to say I'd been to Trader Joe's. Whoa was I surprised!! I need to tell you that the "potato chip" aisle is off the chain! Eat chips responsibly by choosing one of their several types of veggie chips. There were veggie and flax seed tortilla chips, sweet potato chips, and vegetable root chips! I've never seen a chip aisle like that. In the juice aisle, there were all these blends like the Naked juices but 1-2 dollars cheaper! In the sausage aisle, I found like 5 different types of chicken sausage including 2 different types of chicken apple sausage! I also found the cookie butter. Just as I was debating in my head about what it might taste like, I stumbled upon the sample counter. They were giving out samples of the famous cookie butter! I literally jumped in the air and clapped. Too much? I didn't buy the cookie butter. I looooooooooooooooooove peanut butter. The cookie butter was quite tasty but not tasty enough to win my heart. I do think there will come a day when I go and buy some for a recipe or something but I'll stick with peanut butter for now. It had sort of a flat taste whereas peanut butter is a full bodied, strong flavor. Cookie butter tasted like cookies and butter which isn't as good as tasting like creamy peanuts with sugar. As I put my jar back on the shelf, there was a lady there buying 5 jars as gifts for her mother in law. It's popular. Overall, the prices are amazing and breathtaking. I have never shopped in the likes of Whole Foods because I always leave after discovering the prices. These prices were so reasonable that even I fully intend to shop at Trader Joe's regularly. The people in there are very friendly as though we all won the lottery and we've all arrived at Disney World. I went early on a Saturday morning though and was told by several shoppers and staff that after 12, you don't have room to move in that store. I especially like that when I was done shopping I could walk right outside and straight to my car in 10 steps. I counted. THIS is a grocery store. Tips: 1) Go early. 2) Mondays are just as busy as weekends according to Laura. 3) Sample stuff. 4) Expect to be wowed. 5) Review their Fearlessly Featured Flyer Products (also available Online) for more info before you shop. read more

After moving from CA, I didn't think I'd see the insides of a Trader Joe's for awhile! Granted, the Plano location is quite a drive for anyone living in Dallas proper, it is very much worth a trek to stock up the freezer for awhile. TJs in general (and this one is no different) has REALLY outstanding prepackaged frozen foods, canned goods, and prepared salads. Some of the surprisingly delectable prepackaged fare that I've had include the canned turkey chili (better than homemade!), paneer tikka masala frozen dinner, frozen lasagna, and the southwestern chicken field greens salad. It's like TJs put everyone's ethnic grandmother into a sweatshop and made them mass produce the foods that we love and could only get from a time-tested, secret family recipe. The only reason this TJs doesn't get five stars is a consequence of them frequently not being stocked on high-demand items (like the southwestern chicken field greens salad) during the times I've gone. And if I'm traveling so far to come here, it's annoying when they don't have the items I've been looking forward to buy. read more

I love everything Trader Joe's has to offer. I came here for the first time in 2013 and have been coming ever since. The best quality food for the best price. I can't wait to come grocery shop here every week. So many things to try! The produce, meat, cheese, wine selection it is all such great quality at such a great price. The floral department is amazing! I can never leave here without fresh flowers. They always do cute little potted plants per the season, cute mini Christmas trees, tiny potted succulents and cactus. They always have a variety of orchids. My favorite Items to Nosh on: HATCH CHILE MACARONI AND CHEESE Reduced Guilt Chunky Guacamole Blueberry Vanilla Chevre Goat Cheese Carne Asada OJ - NOT from Concentrate Cilantro Salad Dressing Wasabi & Nuts mix Spinach Lasagna Cuban Style Black Beans Veggie & Flaxseed Tortilla Chips And the staff? I don't know if they train them to be so awesome, or they are just very selective at who they hire and make sure they are awesome. The staff is always, helpful, friendly, laid back and personable. It makes shopping here and a short wait in line that more enjoyable. read more

Trader Joe's is one of those places that just doesn't really have an equal in our market. Their nose isn't quite as high in the air as Whole Foods, they're not as big as Central Market, they've got more unique and packaged products than Sprouts. I've not really relied on produce at Trader Joe's, but what I've tried has been good. Recently, I picked up a flat of peaches, and they were really sweet and juicy. But what I usually come here for are frozen or canned goods. Some things that are big wins here: Frozen orange chicken and various vegetables, canned chili, Jo-Jos (their Oreo style cookies), and so many other things. Lately, though, my biggest "discovery" is their store branded dark chocolate. I've only recently become converted to dark chocolate, and they've got a 70% bar that's only $2, is really big, and tastes fantastic. Much better than a Sprouts bar I sampled on the same day, and almost as good as some stuff from Central Market that cost three times as much. Really, you just have to shop here and try some stuff. Don't expect very many national brands, it's mostly store branded. But I really haven't experienced any genuine clunkers; it's all been good for me. read more

I love this place!! TJ's Plano is probably my favorite location in the DFW. I've scored my precious Organic Cauliflower Rice here on more than one occasion. They have an awesome produce section that I frequent on a weekly basis: bananas, shredded carrots, organic broccoli slaw, organic sweet potatoes, organic avocados and pineapples are a MUST. TJ's make meal preparation so easy and convenient. The absolute best price on free range organic eggs, Applegate organic hot dogs, and organic chicken can also be found here! The employees here go above and beyond, and I always have a pleasant experience shopping here. Now the weekends are not good if you want to get in and out, during the week is definitely the best time to come. The only thing I don't like is that favorites like the frozen cauliflower rice, canned coconut milk, ghee, and Applegate organic hotdogs are sometimes sold out :(. If you call in advance they will let you know if one of your favs is in stock. read more

Love, love, love Trader Joes! By far one of my absolute favorite grocery stores. This location is located right next to REI and Old Navy. The store itself was well kept and fully stocked. Their produce is of the best quality. The best part about Trader Joes is their amazing wine collection. After discovering their amazing collection I do not shop for wine anywhere else, unless I am in an actual winery. This is one of my favorite places to shop for groceries. Less expensive than Whole Foods, more ready-to-go items than Sprouts, but still a good selections of items I need most of the time. I have never been disappointed with the quality of the food. The staff is friendly and enthusiastic. If you are in the area, try this store, trust me you will love it. I know I love it, and please believe that I will go back as I frequently as I can. Keep up the good work. Cheers! read more

I love the small and neighborhood-type feel that Trader Joe's has compared to large grocery stores. Their products are high-quality and I love the fresh produce that they have here. You can find many unique products that are only sold at Trader Joe's and I honestly have never tried an item I wasn't happy with. They always have sample food items and drinks in the back corner of the store which is a great way to introduce customers to items that they sell in-stores and gives us an opportunity to try something new! Their 2 Buck Chucks make this place even better! They have a variety of red and white wines that you can purchase on a budget without sacrificing quality and taste! They have a wide selection of cheeses to pair with these wines as well. Customer service is top notch and all the people working here are always so friendly and helpful! I love coming here for my grocery needs. read more
