Wasn't sure if I would be sold on a Downtown TJ's but this is a great spot. Ask for suggestions. The staff knows what's up! read more

I stopped by here last month when I was in the area and wanted to get some wine spritzers. The TJ's liquor person was super helpful and friendly and generally what I've been used to on the West Coast. It beats most of the other Midwest TJ locations. read more

A fan of the service at the Grocery side but not of the Liquor shop. Poor, selective service especially on Sundays even from Management!! Go during the week if you can or walk down to Whole Foods! Such bad taste really!!! read more

This is a one star due to the parking in the back!!! This is a buyer BEWARE... the store is amazing but there is one huge problem! If you have a lot of shopping like I did today... I spent a little over an hour at Trader Joe's and spent 130 dollars. I got my parking ticket validated and I was off to my car. Apparently I didn't read the sign but, if your in Trader Joe's for more than an hour then you have to pay 20 dollars. Only one hour is free. Okay so if there is a long line or I have a large list of groceries I have to pay 20 freaking dollars to get out of the parking. Absolutely disgraceful. Trader Joe's needs to change this one hour parking because it really makes your customers rethink even coming in the first place. read more

Awesome selections and the staff is super cool and helpful! Their alcohol selection is really big as well. Free parking in the back.

Went just before closing and every employee was incredibly helpful and pleasant! The store itself was organized and well stocked I would go out of my way to go to this location again read more

This review is all for TAI! Wow! Is all I can say, he has such an amazing energy about him and is genuine as hell! That's how we all should interact with each other. I always love going into Trader Joe's because the customer service is so amazing and they don't ask you the same robotic question everyone else asks when checking out. But that's enough about Trader Joe's Tai is what I'm here for. I never really write reviews and I had to do this one because he instantly lit up my spirit. His interaction felt so present and real. It's people like him that bring happiness into peoples day and make them wonder why they're not smiling with joy to be alive. (Oh he also ran out to give me flowers ) Good people are everywhere, Tai I love your beautiful soul! Keep living your best life and making people smile, you truly made my day! Five stars isn't enough stars, I'll tell you that! read more

I like Trader Joe's in general, but I'm never coming to this location again. I went in there to buy some groceries with my toddler, and bought around $200 bucks worth of groceries. I got my parking validation, and I STILL had to pay $20 in parking because apparently I went over the hour. So you get one hour free, but God forbid you take one minute longer and you'll pay $20. Sorry if I didn't get my shopping done fast enough. I had a ton of stuff to buy and I'm with a kid. Sometimes, things take a little longer than if you're just a single hipster that's just picking up a six pack of beer and a bag of chips. So if you take a long time to spend more money, you get rewarded by paying $20 for parking. read more

I'm so happy with this new location! For such a busy, congested area, the customer parking garage is a HUGE sell! As long as you're in and out within an hour, you park for free! Just don't forgot to ask the cashier for parking validation, or else you're out $20ish. Inside, the store is gorgeous and the layout logically makes sense. I've been there three times at this point, and the staff have always been so friendly and helpful. At the counter, they're always asking about my day, which I appreciate. The prices are always reasonable and I'm happy with the quality of the produce. Finally, the liquor section is right across from the grocery store and has a good selection for the size. As someone who used to commute from Dinkytown to the St. Paul location, I'm so happy there's a new, convenient location in Minneapolis! read more

Excellent!!! Great prices...great products...great location. This is the best decision Trader Joe's have made to open a store downtown Minneapolis. read more

I never leave reviews, but this is the best grocery store I've been to. Every employee I've talked to has been helpful and made the extra step to create conversation. All of the food I've tried has been great. Can't say enough great things! read more

I loved shopping here but went through a terrible experience today. I was wearing a mask and tried to unlock my iPhone by just sliding my mask down for a second for face recognition. The store associate asked me to put it back with an extremely rude attitude. I told her that it's good to ask people to wear masks back on if they accidentally take it off, but asked her to do so in a polite and friendly manner without showing attitude. The store manager Ginger was upset that I brought the matter directly to the associate's attention without asking for her intervention. For that reason, she asked me to leave the store and threatened to call security on me, very likely because of my skin color. I regret that I was in business with a store like this. read more

Initially this surpassed my expectations with more variety in products than I anticipated as well as high quality. Over time the selection has become limited. Much of produce, even bakery products outdated on day of purchase or next day(and pretty common products which would be anticipated to be high volume). Hope the trend toward less availability does not continue. read more

I have been a Costco and Whole Foods fan since I moved to the TCs. But after a surgery when I could only walk to the store, I finally tried this TJs. OMgosh! I will never return to WF and likely Costco again except a a very, very rare occasion. Not only are the food choices unique, fresh, sustainable but they're creative and fun! I like a more limited selection and a rotating variety of fun new things to try! Plus, w/ Costco, I found myself always wasting food because quantities were so large. I can no longer morally do this to our world, even if I save $. And with WF, well, the fact Amazon pays virtually no taxes and Bezos' net worth, that's not where I want to contribute my $. Lastly, but most importantly, the staff is always welcoming, friendly and kind. I had mentioned my surgery once when I visited and as I was leaving, the staff member ran up and gave me a bouquet of fresh flowers as a gift to improve my day. I almost cried! No other establishment has done something like this in my life! I am therefore a customer for life!!! read more
