Trader Joe’s

The store itself is very well organized, clean and nice. Easy to find what you need and there’s a lot of opening cashier which You don’t have to wait too long most of the time waiting to pay.
Most of the time the parking is the issues since there are a few stores in that parking lot. But overall great store, delicious food and love some of their organic products such as peanut butter and chia seeds.

Staff is super friendly and will always help you look for an item. Even go to the back room and try.
Also store is super clean and has great products.
Only complaint is parking lot the spots are to narrow and people don’t care and just take up it seems to be as many spots as they can. Also for the love of god people help the cashiers bag your items… Get off your phones and bag your stuff and make the lines move quicker!!!

Trader Joe’s is a good store to have on the island.
Lots of the stuff is really healthy but as always make sure you check the labels.
Staff is always friendly too.
I had to deduct 1 star because in NY Trader Joe’s isn’t allowed to sell wine like they do in NJ. They actually have some decent wines in NJ and they are usually under 5 bucks a bottle.

Great prices and very fresh fruits and vegetables I can always find something new that tastes very good.

I found Trader Joe’s while living out in California and I’ve been a Trader Joe’s addict ever since. Their products are fantastic if you’ve never been to a Trader Joe’s what are you waiting for?
My favorite products pomegranate green tea almond butter olive tapenade chicken pot pie raviolis chocolate European yogurt sore soy ice cream sandwich bars Southwest Salmon Temptaion trail mix bambino cheese pizza Edamame tofu nuggets salmon croquettes dolmas to name a few

THE ONLY TRADER JOE’S IN STATEN ISLAND! They really don’t even know how appreciative I am that they opened and just happened to be withing 3 blocks from my house. Not only is it convenient by location but it is also has my favorite food items that most of the nearby supermarket doesn’t have. Also 19 cents bananas, it can’t get better than that!!! I stopped buying bananas anywhere else. My favorite thing to buy out of all the cool items is the SPECULOOS cookie butter spread (if you don’t know what it is then you need to go buy a jar and start spreading it on everything!) Unfortunately, they often run out of their popular items and you’d have to wait 2 or 3 days until they restock it. I came in once just to buy flour and they were all out!
I also love this place because it’s not crazy crowded like the ones in Manhattan. Also, they always keep everything nice, clean and organized. The prices are very reasonable, definitely not like Whole Foods where you’d walk out in shame after breaking the bank on 4 items. Love this place so much! I hope I will always get a chance to shop here in the far future.

Trader Joe’s employs the friendliest staff and best customer service! I always leave TJ’s with a bag full of groceries and feeling better about life. Try the Greek Nonfat Coconut Cream Yogurt.

Trader joes is my favorite market to shop by far, they’re usually stacked with great products and the prices are same as the super markets or even cheaper.
Always kept spiffy clean and organized and they’re always giving out great samples in the back, the kids and i always make a B-​Line back there lol
The Staff is always asking if you’ve found everything you’re looking for and are very eager to help if you haven’t.
They have a rule, you can bring back anything you’ve purchased if you didn’t like it BUT i havent tried anything that i didnt like yet lol
The lines can get crazy sometimes especially on sundays BUT never as bad as the super markets, so hang in there because believe me it moves alot faster than you’d expect !
To the staff at the staten island location, Keep up the great work guys you do an amazing job!

I LOOOOOOVE TJ’s! I have even stopped at one in the Las Vegas area while on business there.
I do 95% of my grocery shopping here! I love that they have food for celiacs (AKA Gluten Free).
My favs:
* Sliced Sharp Cheddar Cheese: Thicker slices, fresher and better tasting than other stores
* Toscano cheese soaked in Syrah. Whoa, I think I have even eaten the entire wedge by myself. Perfect with a nice claret
* The constant plethora of squashes!
* Smoked trout (sadly, they haven’t had this for a while, though)
* TJ’s vanilla ice cream, OUT. OF. THIS. WORLD. It is really the best vanilla ice cream I have EVER had
* Gluten free frozen pizzas (De-​Lish!)
* The fresh coffee beans which you can grind on the spot: intoxicating!
* Unusual yet reasonably priced spices
* Celiac-​friendly pastas!
* The little jars of bruchetta! A meal in itself

Love Trader Joes. Clean, nice décor. Has everything I need. Fresh and organic food and a lot of healthy options to choose from. Love!

I love Trader Joe’s no matter the location. This location is convenient when I’m in Staten Island and has never disappointed me yet. Some of the reviews on here are hyper critical of a store that’s products consistently sell out, the less they stock the fresher your food will be.
The store itself is for the most part clean and well organized. You’ll always see an employee on the floor stocking something. In my opinion the foods always fresh. The prices are great compared to the larger chains. (Although some close minded people think Trader Joe’s is expensive)
The cashiers are ultra fast and not ghetto as of yet and actually engage you during the checking out process. (Wholefoods seems to employ ppl from Workforce1 who are generally unhappy)
The parking lot is another story. Whoever designed that should be fired immediately but I wouldn’t hold that against Trader Joe’s.
Im a fan and will continue to be for the foreseeable future.

I went to this trader joes do to the fact that during the huge snowstorm we had my regular store collapsed. Like the roof actually caved in and it’s destroyed, although they are rebuilding it. This might become my new store though. They seem to have a better selection and it’s no where near as crowded although now that I am saying that the I probably just jinxed myself. Only downfall is the $ 15 bridge toll for me but honestly i save so much coming here as opposed to whole foods it’s worth it. There is a closer store to me in millburn but this Staten Island trader joes just seems so much better organized and well stocked it’s worth the 20 minute drive.

THEY SHOULD MAKE A REAR ENTRANCE/​EXIT TO THE STORE because the parking in front & on the side of this elongated bulding is uncomfortable to drive thru & hazardous to your car. There is a large parking lot in the rear.
That is the only negative.
The staff is very helpful/​will sometimes will walk you to an item requested. Width of isles are non congestive.
The prices are very competitive on most items. PRODUCE IS ORGANICALLY ORIENTED. Also, many items premade for 1 or 2 for quick lunch or dinner.
Good assortment of cut flowers for sale.
Get use to a boat bell ringing occasionally.
Clientele above average for SI.
Your purchases placed in double paper handle bags.

Trader Joes has good prices on organic milk and some unique products in comparison to the mega corporate supermarkets. However, the one on Staten Island is consistently out of most of the products I need when I go there and a lot of their produce tends to be old, right out of the refrigerator. Not very fresh. The store can’t keep up with the demand of this island and I find myself going to another store afterwards to complete my shopping list. I thought with time it would get better since it opened but it has not. After another recall as of today, I rather drive over to Jersey and pay the toll to go to one place moving forward.

By far the best thing that ever happened to Staten Island if only I could find a spot to park. They need faster check out is my biggest gripe. If you’re looking to save money without spending a ton of time preparing meals this is the place to go. Check out the chicken Lasagna while you’re here

This place is awesome. They have wonderful varieties of foods and other goods (international and local). Great for if you’re hosting a get together or for regular shopping. Also be sure to take advantage of their free coffee and demos in the back. So so good. Their employees are nice for the most part. I’m glad staten island took a hint and introduced this awesome place.

They lack variety, meaning there is no international eg asian, latin or italian delicacies. They could pack more in the shelves, they were a bit sparse, not sure if it was due to Jan2? but that was a saturday.
Teas… where are the teas???
Their brand coffee and chicken soup (broth) are good, however.
The prices are good.

Nice an clean, parking sucks as usual, it’s shared with other stores so it’s a bit cluttered.
Everything in here is just so pretty, I picked up a lot of great new foods to try an my family loved it. Great Chineese food selection, the staff is always very friendly and helpful.
I’ll definitely be returning.

I really like Trader Joe’s in general. I’ve learned they are all not alike. One in the city seems to be out of a lot of stock and it’s so chaotic it’s not worth it. This location is my favorite. The staff is very friendly and keep the customers moving. They always have the shelves well stocked. Their prices are fair. Also, can find more organic and less processed foods. Frozen meals are good too. I like their selection of humus. My favorite is the tomato. Sushi is okay, but good for a quick lunch. I definitely recommend shopping at this location!

I don’t come here often but I am a fan of it. It’s vegetarian heaven! I love to get my almond milk and garlic hummus. It’s a bit pricey but the customer service is excellent. One time I was debating about a product and one of the attendants let me try a sample. Which I appreciated so much.
