Cell phone reception while inside Trader Joes is practically non-existent most of the time due to the structure above. Make sure you aren't relying on your phone to shop there.
jeyoDecember 14, 2015Favorite neighborhood grocery store. As long as you stick to your basics, it's really quite affordable. Just don't go crazy with specialty stuff.Upvoted Feb 22
I have picked up some nice quick recipes and tasty wines because I got to try them at the store. Their greeting card selection is a pleasant surprise, too.- 90 minutes of parking is free in the garage with validation so you don't have to worry about street parking.
Parking is free up to 30 minutes. Recommended shopping list: wine, frozen Indian entrees, chocolate covered anything.
This Trader Joe's is in a modern office building that takes up a full block between Washington and St. Asaph streets.- I never buy my citrus fruit (lemons for my iced tea, limes for my guac) anywhere else! Super cheap here!
Good tortillas are hard to find in the DMV-Trader Jose's Handmade Tortillas remind me of the good stuff I find back home in AZ
The Five Layer Mexican Dip with organic corn chip dippers are the best.
thekruserAugust 6, 2013The door to get in is actually in the parking garage. Walk in and the door is on the left.
Stop by the sample corner to try out the store's newest items!
It's like a new store every time you walk in. Because they can't stop rearranging where everything is.
Karena BibbinsDecember 12, 2010much cheaper than whole foods. the cheese selection and wine are out of control!
Steven SchwarkSeptember 4, 2012Try the mystery beer - a brown paper bag-covered 6-pack with randomly selected brews.
Bethany WJanuary 14, 2011You can actually get a decent bottle of wine for under $5 here. INCREDIBLE.
As of Feb. 2014, there are now two more cash registers for a total of 10!
Sean DaltonJanuary 11, 2010Looking for a good (cheap) wine? Ask Bev, the wine department manager -- her tips are great.
- I'm fairly certain that the flowers here are less expensive than other stores.
Melanie BatenchukJune 15, 2010Whatever you do, DON'T lose your parking stub...it'll cost you $12! (even if you were there for 10 mins to shop at TJ's)
Parking here is kind of a pain in the ass but the store is pretty nice.- I hate having to go into a pay lot just to go shopping, but that's life in the big city. And at least it is free.
Lindy SingletonJanuary 3, 2013Note to self...don't come here the day after they are closed for a holiday! There is hardly anything on the shelves!! Maybe they will learn for next time?!?
