Trader Joe’s

Overall, Trader Joe’s is a good, local, grocery store that offers both organic and non-​organic foods. Perhaps the most impressive aspects about Trader Joe’s are their employees and the quality of their customer service. They are easy to talk to and approachable.
The aisles are properly labelled and it’s easy to find products that you need. Everything is tidy and in it’s proper place. There is also free sampling, where you can get free samples of coffee and their item of the day (normally a convenient dinner to heat up at home, with a garnish). Another surprising thing about Trader Joe’s is their frozen/​easy food. Normally, frozen food or microwave food tends to be gross. However, it’s surprisingly not bad for what’s offered at Trader Joe’s. The pricing for the products are pretty reasonable and in some cases better than what other markets such as Safeway has to offer.

I love Trader Joes !
First of all this Davis locations has the friendliest employees, thus the best costumer service .
I usually get nervous asking for help because of who I am as a person but the employees here are very easy and comfortable to talk to. They are more than willing to help and occasionally go nice and beyond to make sure your visit is a good one.
Aside from the costume service, trader joes offers quality grocery options at a reasonable price. I’m huge on snacks and their extensive snack options always keep me coming back for more. I always get really excited when I receive the monthly newsletter to see the what «flyers items «I get to pick up on my next trip.
I have been coming to this trader joes for a couple of years now, and their consistency has made me a loyal customer.
P. s. Don’t forget to bring your own bags when you do your shopping or its 10 cents a bag!

These workers are some of the nicest people. EVER!
I don’t know how would’ve survived my college years without TJ’s just around the corner. Everything about this place just draws me in; the colorful, decorative produce signs, the happy, Hawaiian shirt workers, the yummy samples… I sometimes go in JUST for the samples! Plus, the place is always well-​stocked. The aisles are very tidy, not one thing misplaced. And it is so easy to converse with the workers here. It’s basically my second home.
This place is perfect for anyone living in the apartments in in Central Davis, or if you’re in the off-​campus dorm, Cuarto. Since I fall within those apartments, Trader Joe’s easily became my go-​to grocery place.

All the employees are super friendly! They also have really good packing skills. They can pack all your groceries in any bag you bring pretty much. It’s a true talent!
The prices are great for students too! And very healthy (both for the mind and soul) stuff! They have a bike rack outside for students. Sometimes it’s not enough parking, but there’s other bike racks around too! Everything’s always clean and I love going here! I’m here for school, but this trader joes feels like the one in my hometown!

This place is magical. A Disneyland of grocery stores if you will. They carry a wondrous assortment of ready to eat foods that are absolutely heavenly! All of the salads that I’ve tried were fresh and delicious. Also, they have a frozen section filled with delightful goodies! All at reasonable prices for a quality product, and in most cases, good for you. Love me some Trader Joe’s :)

Where would we be without TJ’s? Great frozen foods for harried working parents. We love everything TJ’s! Staff is super friendly and helpful.

Small victory: they took my first Android Pay transaction! Aka I paid with my phone. Really. Whoa dude.

So I got these trader joe’s gummies tummies penguins and the strawberry flavor and the cherry flavored taste the same and there not that good at all there not worth buying sad to say, gummy bears taste way way better then these and that says a lot there’s hardly no Taste but cherry in these flavors that are supposed to be different but yet taste the same there’s no difference at all between them

Who doesn’t love TJ’s
Parking: ample parking, well lit, shared lot, easy access, plenty of handicapped parking. Heck they even have a bike rack (not surprising for davis)
Customer Service: this place must be a blast to work for becuase every single employee had a smile on their face and there voice was happy too. Anyone can put on a smile but your voice-​tone is more telling.
Store: well stocked with all kinds of goodies. Dont have it just ask. Well faced and signage is easy to follow. Isles are well spaced and kept clean and free from debris.
After working at UCD for awhile now this is quickly becoming my go to store after work.
Thanks keep up the great job!!!

So one day I was feeling adventerous, I began walking down one of the aisles and started looking for something sweet and savory. In the side pocket of my eye above the frozen food, I notice a box labeled, «Cookie Butter Sandwiches.» It looked like a macaron at first, but it’s two cookie like biscuits with cookie butter sandwiched in between. And I’ve always heard good things about cookie I purchased one box, and OH MY SWEET BABY JESUS. Cookie Butter Sandwiches are absolutely phenomenal. I’m enamored! Who woulda thought, freakin GENUIS! YOU have to try these. Bombdotcom.

Three stars for Trader Joe’s? Unfortunately, yes. The Davis location of Trader Joe’s has been a great addition to the city and the greater Sacramento region. They are located near Highway 113 and Russell making them a relatively easy stop when returning to Sacramento from points west. As you would expect, this location is very popular with UC Davis students.
There are two major problems here that knock off points. Parking and access to the store are very difficult, even for Trader Joe’s standards! Also, it seems like this location runs out of product more often than other stores.
Even so, this is still TJ and is one of the best places to shop in the area. They stock the same excellent products that make the chain famous and beloved. The Davis location is just not worth an extra trip if you have a closer location.

Writing this review because I discovered the $ 3 vegan chicken wrap since summer and have been loving it ever since! It comes with a vegan mayo sauce that just blows my mind! I love vegan food because the source of rich calorie dense condiment like this mayo sauce is usually made of nuts and soy so the flavor is very nutty and creamy (without the guilt!) Sometimes my craving is so bad, I have to buy 2 and it still costs less than one of the Davis vegan sandwich at Whole Foods (a whopping $ 8). Thank you TJs for making healthy eating approachable and undeniably delicious!

I always make an effort to go to TJ once a week, even though I live in North Davis (aka pretty far).
I LOVE their frozen Arabiatta penne pasta, panang curry, and masala patties, not to mention their dark chocolate almonds with sea salt.
All are SO good and irreplaceable, I swear.
Their microwaveable organic brown rice and rice medley are lifesavers, especially for college students!
The customer service is also really friendly. Plus, it’s AFFORDABLE — more so than Wholefoods, and even Safeway sometimes.
If you haven’t been to TJ yet, I would highly recommend going and checking out their goodies!

I’m so glad I just moved down the street from Trader Joes!
It was my first time at this location as I just moved to Davis, but the store was clean and well organized. I liked how the produce all had serving suggestions and the prices were clearly listed for all products.
What really cinched my experience was the customer service though– the store was rather busy so they had multiple checkers working, and my cashier was very friendly and made it so I didn’t have to lift a finger. Plus, my groceries for the week were under $ 50– I couldn’t believe it! I’ll definitely be back

As is the case with pretty much all Trader Joe’s, this one is also great.
Always comfortable. They always hire friendly staff. The food is almost always exactly as you want it. No complaints.

Like any other Trader Joe’s if you’ve been to one, you’ve been to them all for the most part.
Fruit/​Veg are decent, usually they’re at the point where you should only buy it if you plan to eat it within a day or two because it’s already ripe (minus the avocados and bananas most likely). Really expensive, but good quality, meat so I don’t recommend purchasing from here unless you’re picky about where your meat comes from.
I love their frozen isle. I usually always get their chicken tikka masala but they stopped carrying it or something. They have another version in the refrigerator area and it’s just not as good. We all have those moments where we’re too lazy to cook and Trader Joe’s makes me feel like I’m not a bad, lazy, unhealthy person for popping something in the microwave for lunch/​dinner.
Alcohol is really inexpensive.

Tha dopest market on da block. They staff singing to tha radio and hella friendly
Also they have the best shit ever mane. Like hella dank shit mane.

Let me start by saying — I love trader joes. It’s walking distance from my apartment and its the grocery store I go to for everything. I would hear so many stories of dead bugs/​ants in food from my friends but I never personally experienced it until now. Today I had extra protein in my salad (if you know what I mean) and don’t think I’ll be going back for more of what used to be my favorite meal.

Thanks for making my day better — I don’t live in Davis but I work for UCD PD and stop by here on occasion to get a snack for the week and then I come for home grocery shopping every 2 – 4 months to stock up on pantry items that I find here that I can’t live without.
Today though confirmed what I have always believed about this company — they are in it for the people and do what they can to make their customers happy.
I wish I would have gotten the clerk’s name — but he asked how I was and I asked him (after stumbling through my words) — if he wanted the polite or honest answer — he said honest and I told him I was there buying chocolate as a comfort to putting my horse down. He asked me to wait there and he returned with a dark chocolate caramel with sea salt chocolate bar and told him it was on the house and hoped I had a better day. He was so sweet and nice about it.
I have always heard about them giving flowers to random customers and I know they donate a lot of their getting close to expiring foods to churches and other organizations to help the community. I have been to a church when they were there and it was nice.
In response to some of the negative reviews: I have also experienced food overlooked, especially the prepacked produce stuff hitting past their expiration and not looking the best. I know some are best by dates and some are expiration dates — but while I think the store should help clear these items — I do think it is the consumers responsibility to double check these dates — I do everywhere I go to ensure the dates meet my eating needs and sometimes I buy in advance for something. I have encountered this at many stores, but I think larger chains pull early to prevent this causing a waste in food… which I don’t think is good for people. I am sure if you took the item back to TJ’s they would make it right.
For the TJ marked products — I love their roasted garlic salsa, tried it this week and I am in love and even though it says medium it is more of a mild IMO — I can’t take heat and this was just fine. I wish I could find the Parm Ranch LF dressing but it seems to be MIA — and their pastas I stock up on regularly…
Thanks TJ for being an awesome company!

Love this place !! The staff are super friendly here and a tad smaller then its competitors like savemart, Safeway, while foods, etc… It’s may be smaller but the prices are fair compare to every be else.
New fresh flowers every week! And it’s for such a killer deal one bundle for $ 3.99-$ 9.99. I’m there ever other week getting flowers for our house. Good selections too for that price not just carnations and daisy, but you get a selection of roses and lilies too! (See the pics I posted)
They have pre-​prepped salads, sandwiches and wraps there too. Their know for the wraps there but I can definitely say something about their salads. Healthy, tasty and light. Always a good place for a salad.
Mostly my go to place for cooking spices. You get a bang for your buck here. Everywhere else is expensive but not them at all. They have a blend they make called 21 salute, goes well with everything you cook, from soups, sauces, meats, pasta, almost anything you can think of to make tasty .
Great place for students or people who are budgeting.
