Small and convenient store with many vegan options

I visited this shop at 19:00 and it wasn’t overly busy. It is quite small and organized awkwardly so it took me some time to find all my food. I was able to get both some fresh and some frozen food. I’ve included the items bought in my picture.

Pros: Good variety of vegan and gluten-free options

Cons: Not well organized

Don’t go in peak hour

Good options in this small store but in peak hour it becomes one long snaking queue of customers.

Pros: Good selection of TJs goods, Handy location, Friendly staff

Cons: Gets Uber crowded after work

Typical, but Claustrophobic

Still my favorite chain to get groceries, but this location is down an escalator and crammed in what feels like a basement. It still stocks almost all of the same products, but because there is less shelf space I’ve found that it runs out of products faster than other Trader Joe locations. The line to check out can wrap around the whole store depending on the time you shop, so definitely be conscious of when you are going to shop!

Trader Joe's

Typical Trader Joe's but I found it pretty crowded and difficult to navigate around . The queue was very long which made it hard to view products on some aisles properly. However the location is great.

More affordable than whole foods but still has plenty of options

I love t joes, they have a ton of specialty products that are vegan friendly that you can only get in their stores. Only con of this location is it’s very small so not all of their products are available

Nothing but the basics

My observations is that most Trader Joe's shoppers are yuppyish folks who want to save on their conspicuous consumption. Buying things we don't need, including heavily-processed prepared foods, is not a way to save money.

However, one CAN find great organic produce and packaged grains, beans, and soymilk as what I term "market-bottom" prices (the lowest prices currently available anywhere.A

For instance, fresh raw unsalted almonds for $4.69-$4.99; half gallon soymilk for $2.99; etc.

If you're frugal, avoid the heavily processed prepared foods and look at Trader Joe's as a place to buy what you don't buy judiciously at your increasingly overpriced regular grocers (where SOME comparable items can be far more expensive).

I've noticed that TJs has NO self-checkouts; every checkout requires a checker. Usually they're pretty good; if we watch, we can see that the shoppers themselves are the primary reasons for checkout delays.

I've seen a few novice checkers who see to be inept with bagging and checking; others are much keener.

Very clean, I thought. But again, some of these shoppers need 'mindfulness' practice; they are so self-absorbed and carelessly acquisitive.
