This is a good place the food choice ,price and quality are amazing,the workers are always very courteous today I shop and had a neck brace on the cashier insist on getting someone to help me to my car with the trolley she was on till # 5 I believe her name tag says Kylanari or something like that …..in a world where people care less it’s so good to know that helpful and kind people are still around.

A decent location, but if you try to park in the lot, be prepared to hate humanity.<br><br>The selection here is usually pretty good, and they restock somewhat regularly, though the employees have NO patience for you and your shopping.<br><br>I do miss the older layout, but the new one is growing on me.

Great local store. But the only thing I didn’t like was the available cashiers at check out during peak hours. But other than that great choices and cleanliness and customer service. Will be coming back but hopefully they open up more cashiers

I hope hes given the recognition he deserves ! 😃

Trader Joe’s is always a pleasant experience. The staff are consistently friendly and helpful, the store is well organized, and the prices are affordable without sacrificing quality. It’s become my go to grocery store. Parking can be a bit challenging, especially on Sundays, but with a little patience it’s absolutely worth it.

The grocery store had a variety of different food that were… interesting. They had cute mini flower pots and milk chocolate covered gummy bears (so good). The cashier that packed my groceries was so fast and efficient.

I love this location!! Shelves are well stocked. Workers here are friendly and helpful they don’t mind finding items for you. The store is clean. The lines may appear long sometimes but they move quickly. Parking is a lil tight due to other businesses in the lot.

I occasionally shop here and consistently find it to be a pleasant experience. In addition to the high-quality fruits and vegetables, a significant advantage is that regardless of how crowded it may be, there is always an organized queue and a sufficient number of cashiers to ensure efficient service

Insanely crowded location. Last Saturday the line was wrapped twice around the store. Parking is always a nightmare. They frequently ran out of things. Come early for better experience.

I went to Trader Joe's specifically to buy 10 "must buy" items for $5 that I saw on a YouTube post because, why not? Anyhow, I always buy lunch and dinner grocery items but miss lunch, so I thought this list could fill that category. I was able to purchase about 6 items on the list or close substitutes. I had such an enjoyable shopping experience that I found myself wandering around the store wondering what else could I buy.<br><br>My first experience with Trader Joe's was in the late 90s, early noughts when I came upon it in Wayne, NJ. Even today, I don't get to their stores much, but I always enjoy the shopping experience, especially at the older model stores. They have a homier small comminity feel to them, which I like.

I felt like discriminating being an Asian, and very uncomfortable and don’t want to come back. I prefer going to one on Yellowstone Blvd / Queens Blvd location. That’s more comfortable shopping there.

One of the worst Trader Joe's I've been to. They absolutely refused to take back a very expensive purchase that I recently got.<br><br>I know a number of other locations which don't give me a hard time.<br><br>Seriously, you can do better.<br><br>Bad parking and layout, too.<br><br>1st and last time there.

Trader Joe's it's always amazing. No matter which one I go to. I frequently visit the one in Union square. They have a sprinkled maple almonds, that is delicious!

Really great store. The parking is convenient even though it's hard to find space.<br><br>Employees try to make sure their shelves are well stocked at all times and maintain a very clean store even though it is always busy.<br><br>Their customer service is impeccable. Never a bad experience with the workers. Every person is kind and caring. The cashiers are the best at their work even though it's been a long day, they greet with a smile and treat all the items with extreme care.<br><br>I've never had a bad experience at any Trader Joe's I've been to (3).<br><br>The only thing I wish is that this location had more of the self-care products like body wash, face wash, etc. Also wish they had more bag selections. Other locations had cuter bags. I just like collecting them....<br><br>I understand this location probably can't keep more items stocked because they're small but I hope they can expand or that more Trader Joe's opens up around Fresh Meadows, Bayside, or Murray Hill.

I am a super fan of Trader Joe’s and visit at least once every two weeks. Most of their product is great with cute design and reasonable price.<br><br>Our favorite is their frozen prepared food like pasta, entree and desserts. It’s really convenient to have some in your freezer and most importantly it’s also delicious.<br><br>However, there is only one Trader Joe’s in Queens so it is always super crowded and hard to park. We hope their management team will open up a new location shortly.
