Trader Joe’s

I buy and buy and buy and buy and.. .
You get the picture. Many of their products are top-o’-the-line. The Roasted Seaweed Snacks and the Ridge Cut Potato Chips with Sea Salt are so dang delicious.. .you won’t go back to Ruffle’s. There are some others.
Here’s the thing: closely examine many of the products as measured /​evaluated from your prior purchases. They are cheapening the products. Using inferior or less than ideal ingredients, lessening the weights (yet, not the price), and as I listed above the Ridge Cut Chips they crush the bags either in the delivery or stock; therefore, the last quarter of the bag is unusable for dips. The potstickers are not filled with adequate and tasty innards. The Hatch Valley salsa redounds with seeds and peel. The thing to do then is to bring back the product until they correct these issues. After all, they do have a customer assurance policy.
Their produce is fair to mediocre at best. Improvement is needed here.
The store is too small for the amount of customers and product they handle at times. Parking is chaotic.

This is my husband and I’s favorite place for groceries! The reason I am writing this review is to praise the INCREDIBLY friendly staff here. EVERY SINGLE TIME we visit, the cashiers are super friendly, thoughtful, and conversational. They always check our eggs to make sure they are not cracked [insert heart emoji]!
Some specific shoutouts I’d like to give are for Julia (brunette), who exchanged our cherry tomatoes for a fresher pack upon examining them. She was extremely kind and cheery throughout our interactions, and I’ve been wanting to make a post for her a couple days now! Also, Lisette (brunette) was kind to me about a month ago when I was buying groceries here.
This is the way to keep your customers – good customer service! :)
TIP: People say prices can be high here, but if you are mainly buying all-​natural, un-​prepared food items, it’s actually very cheap! We basically buy fresh veggies, fruits, basic meats, and the essentials like cereal, frozen fruit, cliff bars, etc. If you know how to shop smart and are willing to prepare your food yourself (instead of buying pre-​made frozen meals, etc), this store IS the bargain place!

Love this place! If you come in for one thing, you leave with many! no kidding.
I love the ready to eat food and also the desserts as well.
Friendly staff always smiling, they always recommend something new to try and
very informative.

Great store. Great food. Not a fan of the produce but they do have great deals on some organic food. Speedy checkouts everytime and excellent customer service.

Although the location is outstanding and the parking situation can be a bit chaotic, I still am never turned off by venturing to this store. Don’t be dissuaded into going thinking the parking situation is madness.
The variety at this TJs is fabulous! I have been to a few a Trader Joes across the U.S. and I feel that this location has some of the best selection in the game. I frequently find things I cannot get anywhere else of for cheaper at the very least.
I enjoy that there are fresh plants and cut flowers alike. I can keep fresh cut flowers and plants on my home for a reasonable price.
The frozen foods are located in two off-​center (to the right) aisles and you can find anything from Asian style frozen selections to appetizers and spinach pie. Their frozen vegetables and seafood selections are pretty great and a good deal. Also along those frozen items are crackers, cookies, and snacks abound. I believe there is come thing for everyone.
One thing which I adore is that TJs claims that none of their produce has GMOs EVER! This is highly prized in my world and I think should be the standard in all grocery stores. I enjoy that they have a great selection of organic produce and canned/​boxed/​bag goods.
Prices here for produce and goods are cheaper than other local stores which I appreciate. The beer and wine selection is pretty great and reasonably priced. The selection of cheeses and meat and pre-​packaged meals is pretty phenom. You can’t go wrong with a packaged salad and you can doctor them and add anything you like (I suggest avocado for some of them) for a quick and easy lunch. This is truly one stop shopping. I’m grateful that This Trader Joes is in the area and offers an alternative to the run-​of-​the-​mill shopping experience.

What can I say? Love it. Great food at great prices. Frozen foods are affordable and tasty. Some of my favorites include garlic naan, sweet potato gnocchi, veggie masala burgers, vegetable pad Thai, Chana masala, and many others. Good prices for the quality.

I love this store! The food items are great and produce fresh. A great place to buy fresh flowers too!
The employees are always helpful and cheery.

The folks who work here are friendly and fun! I appreciate the experience shopping here. Great food and great customer service!

I drive for 35 minutes to shop at this location every week. Nice varieties of fresh fruits and veggies with choice of organic or not. Good quality food. Nice selection of wines and cheese. Friendly and knowledgable staff.

It’s hard to resist impulse buying because everything looks so good! the staff are always amazing!

This is a really great Trader Joe’s. The fresh products are always fresh, and are sourced with great standards, as opposed to some of the stuff you will see at the supermarket across the street. Service is absolutely second to none, and they will open additional registers very fast when it gets busy.
Pricing is very competitive. On average, I find that buying the same products here over Market Basket yields a 15−20% savings. There is still some basics that are overpriced, but that is quickly balanced out by very cheap nuts, frozen foods, and snacks. The produce is great here too — watermelon is usually $ 3.99-$ 4.49 each over the summer!

Love this store! Fresh Flowers are my favorite and amazing prices! I go in 2 to 3 times week right after I drop my daughter off from school. Usually the only one to two customers there right when they open! Great great staff… always upbeat and happy (even in the early hours of the morning) 80% of our groceries are bought there and always will be!

I love TJ’s! They have a great selection of food and fantastic staff! Every one of the people working there is so helpful and constantly asking if you need something or suggesting new products. I’ve found so many amazing and addicting foods there.

The service is done with a smile. The quality of the food is really high compared to other grocery stores. They might not have as many options but that’s because they will not sell something because it is popular. They only sell what they think is good. It also makes for a nice short visit to the store because you are not running around looking for everything. That’s my kind of visit to a grocery store.

We really like TJ’s. We do most of our regular food shopping at one of the big stores, but we always visit TJ’s for special stuff.
The workers are friendly, helpful and numerous. The ‘sample lady’ at the rear of the store always has good stuff. The wine sampling is nice too.
So what special stuff do we regularly get here? Coffee beans, pumpkin bar mixes, wines, cheeses, apple and pumpkin butters, nuts and their frozen pastry dough. And of course sometimes we can’t resist buying whatever the sample lady is sharing!
A fun place to visit and shop. Give it a try!

First time at this location it’s big, clean & set up for easy access. I didn’t see parking as a challenge. The prices are competitive and staff is friendly. It’s nice to see some familiar items and some that you cannot get anywhere else.
I won’t ding them for the large beer/​wine selection I suppose the profits on almond flour and hormone free chicken are thin!
Walmart could learn a thing or two from the checkout process here. The checkout lines were starting to build when workers started coming out of nowhere and started opening up registers. Good job!

Trader Joes is really a great grocery store! They truly care about the ingredients in all the food they sell! From fresh to processed!
Everything I’ve bought has been great and the store policy is «if you don’t like it just bring it back» I have done this and they just take it back! Great policy!
The wine selection is great and Trader Joes has it’s own line. Organic and non Organic and it’s very reasonably priced! You can usually buy a bottle of T-​Joes organic wine for $ 5.99! That’s unheard of at other stores!
The staff is always very friendly, helpful and very knowledgable about all their products!
This is a great store and I highly recommend it!

Since the big move I have mixed emotions. They don’t sell any more than they did before except beer and wine. The isles are a bit wider and that is a huge plus.
I like TJ, I hate the parking. It is a mess.
I love TJ’s food. Their brands are great and very well priced. My biggest complaint is the lack of NONGMO marking or foods. I can’t tell what has been genetically modified and what has not. I shop for the bulk of my foods where I know what i am getting. I shop at TJ when I need something in between shopping trips.

The Trader Joe’s in Nashua is the best TJ’s I’ve been to in the chain regionally and it’s close to my home too! This store is much bigger than the former Tyngsboro store and this store also sells wine and beer (not all locations do) with plenty of microbrews here. The aisles here seem wider here and I can usually find what I’m looking for.
I generally shop here for snacks, oatmeal, produce, pasta, ready to eat salads, mochis, frozen pizza, meatballs, rice bowls, Greek yogurt, green tea, and other specialty items. Also, like other TJ stores, the food sample booth in the back of the gives me a chance to try out interesting products, which sometimes influence me to buy the product. I bought some TJ’s frozen mac & cheese on a recent visit after the sampling. They also have a wine tasting table as well.
The checkout process is quick and friendly since they have several registers open at the same time, especially on the weekends when I usually shop here.

Dear Joe and Charles Shaw,
Nice store now please come to Salem.
Thank You!
