The Staff — Awesome. always friendly and helpful. The Store — Clean as a hound’s tooth, If’n you don’t know how clean that is it’s pretty damn clean. Always well stocked. All TJ’s have a store theme this one has a Hawaiian, you know to reflect the Yorba Linda lifestyle. TJ’s in General — great selection of specialty stuff frozen foods. Meat is on the pricey side but if you can’t afford it you get you meat elsewhere. Produce, this can be hit and miss TJ’s are not your big Supermarket and thus do not have a huge selection or turnover so sometimes you get a bad apple or such. Nice selection of nuts. Good selection/price on coffee. The YLTJ’s Parking — SUCKS, oh my God does it suck, that is not the stores fault, I just wanted to make it clear that it SUCKS! The YLTJ’s compared to others — I have been to the Orange and Brea stores and this is the best of the bunch by far. cleaner, better organized, slight vanilla scent to the air and the bathrooms are immaculately clean.

This place has the most helpful and friendly staff. My wife and I always say they are a great example of high end customer service. We go here often and it is always a good shopping experience. If you read my other reviews you will see I rate fairly based on performance. Thanks to the staff

Friendly and helpful staffs. Provide excellent recommendation for me to pick up wines for various occasions. Have great snacks for parties and inexpensive flowers whenever needed. My wife and I love this store!

I absolutly love this Trader Joe’s. Probably because it is more spaced out and feels bigger than the one in Orange. While it is a bit of a drive, I’d much prefer it because the staff is friendly and I feel like it has more items to choose from.

I love this TJs. The staff is so friendly and the layout is easy. The coffee/samples are in the back, they have some really good stuff. Random but their bathroom is also very clean. This is important to me since I have a young baby and there is usually some sort of a mess or spill or diaper change that is needed. Some TJs have their bathrooms in the back warehouse and is not convenient. This store is also located next to a Home Goods which I love since I can easily spend an hour in both places :) Overall though, great location and convenient, there is a bank, gas station, pharmacy. All the essentials.

Love the layout of this Trader Joe’s location. It’s pretty spacious and an added plus is that the parking is very convenient at this one(unlike the Brea one). Staff is always super friendly!

The employees at this Trader Joe’s are always friendly and helpful. :) We’ve shopped here for many years. They listen to their customers and sometimes will even special order items if they get enough requests. One thing I especially like, about all Trader Joe’s, is that they offer things you won’t find at the major grocery store chains. Good place to shop!

One of a better group in stores where space is wide on aisles and not all compact to where people will be in a status of starting traffic jams… Place is a good low key location to where it’s not as busy as many other TJs. Very bright and clean, some reason less brown and less tiki designs here. Felt more of a neighborhood grocery store but that was a good thing cause I liked the change of traditional all out Hawaiian theme. Items are fully stocked and I am proud to say I visited this location. I don’t mind driving to this site as long as they keep it the way it is

Came with wife to get groceries, Trader Joe has brought in a lot of new supplies they have snacks that cost $ 1.99. I love their lemonade its very tasty. Love the juices which cost less then gasoline prices. We checked their herb section and finally picked up some flowers. Took some Salsa and Guard cheese and its very healthy as you make vitamin K-2.

Me and my boyfriend are pretty much regulars here and we love all the employees! They never fail to treat us with kindness! Our favorite product is the kale spinach butternut squash pizza. We get it every single time! Can’t wait till the triple ginger brew is back in the winter as well :)

Wide aisles! Compare other TJ locations, this one is pretty big and doesn’t feel crammed. It’s so nice so not have to worry about maneuvering my shopping cart in the store. ^_^. TJ An affordable specialty gourmet store with a great vegetarian and vegan selection, organic dairy, produce and meats and etc. My favs are… –Anything COOKIEBUTTER — It’s crack in a jar(crunchy, cocoa swirl) and mini sandwich cookies. –zucchini– comes 3 medium size in a tray. Perfect for making zoodles! –Chicago Cheddar and Popcorn– OMG! Love the sweet and salty flavor. –Vegan Tikki Masala at the frozen section –All Natural Fruit Jellies — it has real fruit extracts and no artificial flavors and preservatives. Staff are very friendly. They like to make small talks at check out. Highly recommend this location!

I love coming to trader joe’s to grab a bite to eat and get cookie butter :) they have a great selection of prepackaged salads and ready to go meals. It’s so easy to come and grab one before classes or work. The unique selection keeps bringing me back

Just moved to the area, and love this Trader Joe’s. Such a friendly staff, good selections for a vegetarian, and they move the lines fast — while still maintaining a friendly & talkative, attitude.

Yes, TJ’s is very good. I’m sure they like to be thought of as a small upscale, specialty gourmet store, and keeps they are. Always neat, friendly, young staff. Good deals, and TJ’s is always introducing new foods to try! Today I spent too much on frozen pizza and pasta… And juices and milk. We’ll always come back for more!

How can not love Trader Joes. I love how quick I can shop and get out in minutes from when I entered. They have everything I need. I love all the very unique products.

How can you say anything bad about Trader Joes you say? Well, first off, I have to say I like them for all the other reasons listed here. I love shopping there, but there are some things I just won’t buy. #1 — their meat is outrageously expensive. #2 — the produce: where do you find lemons the size of golf balls? Prices again kinda high. #3 — salads: please do not put chicken in your prepackaged salads, it tastes like dog food, dry and inedible. Apart from that, service is impeccable, wine prices are terrific, frozen foods — hit and miss.

Trader Joe’s is hands-down my favorite grocery store. They have an amazing selection of standard foods that are slightly better quality than what you would find at a normal grocery store as well as unique foods and fast meals for when you get home from a long day of work. Some of my favorites are: The precooked lentils — No need to spend a half an hour cooking them from scratch because with these you can just heat them up Quickly on the stove The lamb vindaloo, the palak paneer, and the chicken tikka masala — Great meals when you don’t feel like cooking but want something that tastes home made The sliced cremini mushrooms because these sauté really nicely and add a robust flavor to many dishes Without the hassle of cleaning and slicing The organic reduced guilt white corn tortilla chips AND the raw milk white cheddar because these make the best nachos I’ve ever eaten in my life — including any nachos that you can buy at any sports stadium anywhere :) The cauliflower because it is cut into small sizes and since it is fresh and not frozen it is crunchier after cooking The miniature goat cheese medallions because sometimes you don’t feel like eating an entire log of goat cheese by yourself but you’re craving just a little bit of goat cheese — then you don’t have to worry about the rest of the goat cheese expiring The checkers at Trader Joe’s are way friendlier than checkers at normal grocery stores. Ever since the strikes at big grocery stores several years ago I’ve been coming to Trader Joe’s instead. Everyone has a smile and is super helpful! I wish Trader Joe’s would bring back the caramel covered chocolate dipped peanut coated pretzel sticks. They were called mud sticks. Best dessert ever. Please bring it back!!! Keep being an awesome friendly grocery store :)

You make me broke. I love this Trader Joe’s. It’s definitely one of the best Trader Joe’s locations I’ve ever been to. They’re always stocked on whatever I need, the store is clean, and the staff is super friendly. This store has quickly become my go to store for picking up anything from a quick meal or having some people over and feeding all of them. Reduced guilt macaroni and cheese = awesome.
