This is a FANTASTIC MARKET and run by a wonderful, hard-workng family. I first came to know them…read morewhen the father was running the store - a welcoming, warm, and generous man. Unfortunately, he had a serious stroke that affected his ability to communicate a few years back, so this may be the "older gentleman" that "Bobbi S." referred to in a previous comment. They have the best fresh chicken - meat that tastes like REAL chicken - as it's from a local farm. There is a huge selection of international foods, spices, dry goods, and refrigerated items. Great place.

The market is between the university and Charlottesville's idea of downtown; it's not actually the…read moreeasiest place to park at but I walked by. What I sought was distinctive flatbreads and some accoutrements for my foul medames, which they provided. It wasn't a place that had a lot of fresh food items, but the freezer was well stocked and it had canned goods that wouldn't be the easiest to find elsewhere. The selection was not what you'd find in a big city, but it's a good resource for this area.

This review will be for one of their donuts and one of their subs…read more I wanted food so decided to try a sub from the deli department. I went with their whole sub deal where you get a whole sub for $8.49 which came to $9.16 after tax. On my sub I got turkey, provolone cheese, lettuce, tomato, Mayo and salt and pepper on whole wheat bread. This thing was MASSIVE. The picture I posted is only half of the sub. I had been wanting turkey all day and the taste did not disappoint. Ate half then had the other half the next day. For a sweet treat I went for one of their donuts. I got the chocolate cake donut with a thick chocolate glaze. Or maybe it was a chocolate sauce? Not sure. So the donut itself was a bit dry. Needed some milk which I didn't have but oh well. The chocolate topping was delicious. I ate the dry bottom part first so that I could taste more of the topping which worked out beautifully. Because the donut was kinda dense, I decided to only eat half cause I didn't wanna feel so heavy. Half was enough tho and I ate the other half the next day. I would 100% order more subs from there. They're delicious, HUGE and you get what you pay for. The donut.....I'd probably try a different flavor.

We usually purchase 6 bottles of wine at a time and the box is really heavy. The check out people are always SO nice and this time our check out asked if we needed help and called for a sweet young woman - HEATHER - to help us to our car. HEATHER walked with us and easily lifted that heavy box and stowed it in our trunk - and she was so SWEET about it. I asked her name and wanted to especially thank her for helping us with something neither I (85) or my husband (92) could not do ourselves! Now we can enjoy an evening glass on her!! We are very grateful to HEATHER and to the whole helpful staff at Trader Joe's - we love TJs!! Annie and Mack Rowe, Madison, Va.

I likely have never given a grocery a 5 star review before, but yet here it is…read more Trader Joe's has been growing on me, although I only shop them sparingly in Virginia Beach. My daughter loves and introduced us. So with UVA move-in inexperienced a new store and was impressed. They offer nearby surface parking, but at peak times it's challenging. The lot is a bit tight and weekends congested. All good though and no debris. My Saturday experience on a UVA move-in would not be typical. So in my opinion it really tested them. It was crazy full, but still stocked. The staff was working hard to ensure customers had the products they needed. Many of the staff i encountered said hello and was working hard! Although Trader Joe's stores are smaller than traditional types of groceries like say Kroger they pack a ton into their space. TJ's is best known for their frozen foods and there has not been a single item I have been disappointed with. However like any product from Trader Joe's if you are not saturated shied bring it back for a refund, just keep the container and receipt. Checkout was smooth and cashier friendly. Bring your own bags and save some. My daughter will be a regular.
