We purchased our usual refill the staples - and were pleased to see our bill was pretty low! I've never really thought of Trader Joe's as low cost, but I'm beginning to. Of course we love the quality of the food- we want to go back on a regular basis. read more

I'm always a fan of Trader Joe's. The staff are friendly and helpful. I do wish the were more parking options and that this location was bigger. However, I always enjoy finding new food options at Trader Joe's! read more

As an African-American woman I had a VERY disappointing shopping experience a few minutes ago in the Trader Joe's on Rockville Pike! I stood patiently waiting for the cashier to finish talking to an older gentleman- keep in mind their conversation continued at least 3 minutes after the groceries were paid for but they continued to discuss the cashier's day off despite the fact I was patiently waiting to check out. A kind cashier in the next aisle over offered to help me after he completed his last transaction. Lo and behold as soon as an Asian woman and her daughter went to the line the conversation IMMEDIATELY ended within seconds. I am outraged and will definitely never shop here again and will tell this story to anyone who wI'll listen!!! read more

I ran in during my lunch break to pick up three items. The service lines were quick and I swear they're always restocking. It was pretty crowded for a weekday at lunch. The one thing I did not like was parking. You'd think there would be lots of options since it's a shopping center but I could not find a parking spot. It was not that I couldn't find a close one, it was that I couldn't find one at all. There were no open and there were lots of cars coming so you really had to be lucky to snag a spot. I still love trader joe's though. My favorites are their pineapple juice, chocolate pretzels, and garlic and herb butter. read more

Trader Joe's - Exterior - Grocery Near Me - Rockville, Maryland

I usually shop at the Trader Joe's on Route 28....but, today I was in the shopping center on Rockville Pike. I love Trader Joe's and the people at this location are nice and helpful. The store has a unique layout and I found myself turned around looking for items. I found everything I was looking for and my checkout employee was just wonderful. Another reason, I gave them 4 stars was the parking lot. It is really hard to find a place to park. But, like all Trader Joe's the quality of their products is excellent and well priced. read more

Trader Joe's - Picked up some roasted cashews, chocolate pretzels, and tomato soup. - Grocery Near Me - Rockville, Maryland

I love this store! I will drive from Frederick just to go to this Trader Joe's location. They always have fun and unique items that I like to try. My main reasons for coming here are to buy the items that you can't find elsewhere. On this trip, I bought fresh sausage for my daughter... it doesn't have any ingredients in it that my daughter can't eat. I also love the flowers and their inexpensive price! I recently bought a large number of flowers and filler--so that my family could put together floral arrangements. (Probably the least expensive of flowers around!) read more

Trader Joe's - A family favorite! - Grocery Near Me - Rockville, Maryland

Love shopping at Trader Joe's! Their hummus is one of my favorites, and they have such a great selection of frozen meals that are both tasty and convenient. The desserts are amazing too - especially the pastries and mochi ice cream. Always a fun place to find something new! read more

Although I unexpectedly stopped by here to pick up few items, my experience was smooth sailing. First, I really like the open aspect of the store because it makes it easy to scan the store for the items that you need rather than going up and down 80 million aisles. While finding most of the things I needed was a breeze, I really appreciated that there were plenty of staff on the floor to assist shoppers. Also, I thought my cashier was super friendly, and the prices were pretty fair (especially for the quality) compared to other grocery stores in the area. Since this TJ's is in a strip mall of sorts, there was plenty of parking...something that is seriously lacking in these parts. The store was pretty clean and bright (unlike another store that I had to visit in the strip mall). During my visit, I did not notice any long lines because my wait was only about 5 minutes. Perhaps, I was very lucky or maybe it was due to shopping on a Sat night around 6 pm. While this TJ's is a little out of the way for me, I definitely would not mind visiting again. read more

Just a normal Trader Joes. Tight parking lot when it's busy. Bill with the mask was extremely rude...

Having a Trader Joe's not far off of Rockville Pike is probably one of the best things since moving to this city. I've only gone a handful of times because it's a pricer grocery store. But they truly do have everything you need. I tend to buy most of my salads, fruits and any snacks/chips at Trader Joe's. Their produce section is always fresh and that's what I love about shopping here. Service is always top notch and staff are very helpful/friendly. It's definitely more crowded in the evenings (any day of the week) so I always try to go morning or early afternoons. Aisles are clean and the store is always organized. read more

This review is long overdue. I was in on Christmas Eve in the afternoon. The staff couldn't have been more helpful and professional. Three different employees helped me find what I was looking for. One even checked to see if an item was discontinued. Thanks to their staff for consistently going the extra mile! read more

I'm a fan of this grocery chain. I don't come to this particular store often - only a handful of times, but since I was in the area recently, I figured why not. The parking lot here is always a zoo and the parking spaces are tiny! The store itself is clean. There's fresh produce and their prices are fair. I was looking for their cold pressed juices and I bought a few. They taste great by the way! The lines are long but they move so efficiently! Friendly and helpful employees. Thank you! read more

Reggie at Trader Joe's went above and beyond during my visit. As I was checking out, he noticed one of my strawberry packs didn't look as fresh as the others and, without me saying a word, he swapped it out for me. It was such a thoughtful gesture and showed how much he cares about customers. That extra attention to detail is the kind of service that keeps me coming back. read more

This TJ's is consistently great, they most often have a wide variety of food, flowers and friendly staff. Their produce is fresh as well as their baked goods. I love that their prices are also reasonable and their facility is clean. read more

I came in around 3 p.m. on a Wednesday afternoon. There was not a lot of traffic on the parking lot and there was a slow pace in the store. Usually, I come here on the weekends, but on weekends it is very hectic, which makes shopping on the weekends very stressful. In regards to my review of my visit to the store, I found a parking spot with no problems and walked straight into the establishment. It was neither too slow or too busy, it was just the perfect amount of customers to make the store run smoothly. It was an extremely well organized store and there were several employees engaged in restocking, organization and helping the customers. I really appreciated how well organized the store was. My checkout process was very quick and easy due to the fact that every cash register had an employee at it, so I was able to exit very quickly. Overall, my experience at Trader Joe's was exceptional. The store was well-organized, with plenty of employees available to assist customers and keep the shelves stocked. The checkout process was efficient and quick, thanks to the availability of cashiers at every register. I was pleasantly surprised by the lack of crowds and hectic atmosphere, making my shopping experience enjoyable and stress-free. Furthermore, I would like to give a shout out to Greg, who was my cashier. He was efficient while checking out customers, and he made entertaining conversions along the way. As it came to the time for me to pay, we talked about the Kimbap, and he recommended other things that I may want to try at the store, making me think about coming back next week to try them out. Overall, I hope that trader joe's management will be able to see this review because Greg is a great asset to the store and he cares about the work he does as well as the organization he works for. read more

Why on earth are y'all doing a full restock with customers shopping during an after work rush hour? People are literally bumping into each other and the employees because it's too much going on smh. Boxes everywhere. & you could barely manvour through the aisles. They have some good stuff in here but there's so much chaos going on that you can't browse the shelves like you really want to. This place made my anxiety spike through the roof lol. I had to basically get in and get out. I did get a nice Money tree out of here for $10 so that's where the 2 stars come into place lol read more

Always a pleasant shopping experience. Found everything on my list. Peggy at check out engaging and friendly. Have a great day Peggy! read more

Much bigger than the one on Darnestown road. Veggies cost similar to asian stores. Friendly staff willing to help and point you in the right direction. Good place to explore and try new things. Found ube spread and crunchy speculous spread. Came here looking for their #1 consumer Reports rated sunscreen spray and bought a bunch for upcoming beach vacays. Because we're in MoCo, this branch does not have alcohol. Love wandering the aisles and picking up some new snacks to try. read more

The parking lot can get really tight during peak hours. I would recommend coming super early to avoid crowds. The staff here are friendly. They have a good selection of goods and produce. Pretty clean overall. read more

This store at Federal Plaza in Rockville has the best produce department ever I think. Their prices and quality are the real bet this end of the whole "Pike"! This store should get a 10, I feel short giving a 5!! read more

I only really want to say one thing: You must try the ube ice cream from Trader Joe's. It is super delicious and life changing. As a Filipino dude with experience eating many different ube-flavored items, I believe that I have some credibility. Otherwise, this TJ's location is nice with friendly staff and clean aisles. Of course I'll be back for more! read more

This location is the one that used to be across the street from Lakeforest Mall. However, This Trader Joes saddens me. Very small parking lot. Employees here are slim to none. The ones that are friendly but overworked. Check out lines are slow and long. Avoid coming here on the weekends because you will encounter screaming bratty children running wild throughout the store and the parents not even giving a care in the world. Most popular items are usually out of stock. I love buying their pizza dough. I love making home made pizza. However the herb pizza dough is to avoided. It has a weird aftertaste. I love their fruits and veggies. They seem to last a lot longer than places like Giant. There seasonings are limited but their everything bagel seasoning is definitely a must have in your pantry. They also have samples everyday. Which is always a winner because theres products that I wouldn't have discovered if I didnt try their samples. At times, their fresh flowers collection is a win. You'll see them as you enter the store. They seem to run out of a lot common items. No matter when you come in the week. I was hoping for a better experience once they moved from their Gaithersburg location but no. I hope they can work on their inventory. read more

Trader Joe's has decked the halls for the holidays with decadent, colorful and deliciously fun holiday foods, cakes, chocolates, desserts a plenty. It's always so much fun, and not expensive, unless you try to buy up the store...like I did a day a ago. They have items to eat or gift, like honey, hams and turkeys and alcoholic chocolates, peppermint JoJo's, adorable trees, mistletoe and marshmallow/chocolate snowman that melt in your hot chocolate. The Best part of the season, isn't even Christmasy....Trader Joe's MAC and Cheese Ball are back. I'm so excited to see them, as they are seasonal item. They even have items I haven't yet tried....peppermint coco, chocolate biscottis, Ginger Bread Houses, Gingerbread coffee, chocolate peppermint loaf mix, mystery gift pack to wrap present with, spices, chocolate oranges, olives. This started as a review, but ended up as an Ode to Trader Joe's. read more

Trader Joe's always does it for me! It doesn't hurt that this place is only 2 1/2 miles from my house. There are so many things they have that my family and I need! My kids love their version of Lara bars, which are made with dates, almonds, coconut and unsweetened chocolate. There are new Paleo tortillas or some thing we absolutely can't live without. We go through them like crazy! They make the best quesadillas and are also perfect for miniature pizzas! And I always have to have their dark chocolate peanut butter cups on hand. I also love that they constantly have new products or seasonal products to try for fun! This past summer I fell in love with her watermelon club soda, so good! The only thing about this location that I wasn't prepared for us that they don't sell wine. I only needed it for a gift and I never actually drink, so it really doesn't affect me very much. But just a heads up if you're from out of state it might be a surprise. read more

Love Trader Joe's! Although this isn't the location I frequent the most, when I am in the area, I love to stop by here. Although this particular store isn't that large and navigating the overcrowded parking lot can be a task, once you find a parking spot and make your way in, you are in for a treat. I prefer to go early mornings as it's not as busy. Here are the things I love most about TJs: - Organic food selection, namely the fruit and vegetables. I love that you get an assortment of fresh foods that are organic here. The fresh flower selection. As soon as you walk in you are able to pick beautiful flowers. Instant mood booster. - The frozen food section. It's a God send. The variety and options are bar none. I love discovering treats in this section for every meal of the day -- breakfast, lunch/dinner, and even dessert! - The beauty section. Between the moisturizers, body butters, and the lemongrass oil, this part of TJs is a must see. - The snack section. Chips, popcorns, nuts to your heart's content. - Seasonal treats. I love going to TJs in the summer and fall because they change their products to reflect the season. Can't wait for the apple crisp candles to make a comeback (fingers crossed)!! I could wax poetic about the joys of roaming the aisles of TJs, but I'll leave that for a review of another location (probably one of the ones in DC that sell wine)! :-) read more

I don't shop at this location often cause the parking lot is super busy. But the store itself is nice. Organized. Clean. Lots of staff available to ask questions. The single line to pay looks daunting, but once you're in line, it goes very quickly. Love that TJs has a great variety on cheese, and it's nice to look at the flowers and plants. Still looking for some items to try, but they're popular enough that it seems hard to keep in stock. At least the staff tries to look up details for you. read more

Great place to find unusual, slightly gourmet foods at a fair price. Everything is a little different than the typical plain vanilla variety. Great customer service, fast and friendly checkout. Beautiful mostly organic produce, large cheese selection, delicious ready made food, both fresh and frozen. Tasty international offerings like tamales and pot stickers. Great sauces, chutneys, tapenades, pestos, and chimichurris. Nice breads that are a little different than you would normally find. My only complaint is that the parking in this shopping center is terrible. read more

Good prices. Fresh foods. Especially produce and veggies. Unique and diverse options for many groceries - shelved and frozen and fridge stuff. Clean store. Friendly staff. Wheelchair accessible. Only not so nifty bit is the crazy and always crowded parking lot -- to small for the moment of stores surrounding it. read more

Very friendly, courteous and knowledgeable people that work there. Store is always clean and well stocked.

Bright and cheery. Lots of helpful employees. Always seems to be in stock of items or restocking items. Lots of selection. Wide aisles. Lots of parking. What more can you ask for? My go to are the cheese, crackers, and interesting beauty items. Most recently find is the Trader Joe's hand cream that has nearly identical ingredients as my loccitane almond oil hand cream!! The smell is heavenly and 1/100th the price of my other one. read more

Shout out to Luis who helped bag me up today ! Was a breath of fresh air to talk to and a positive person all around. Groceries are always great quality when I go and everyone's happy to help. Thanks Luis and Trader Joe's ! read more

Everytime I come here I always have a positive experience. The staff is so helpful, and friendly, and pleasant, and they really make the whole shopping experience. The store is always clean and well organized, and everytime I visit there's always something new and/or seasonal to try. I really love the eccentric selection of flowers that the store offers. This is the only place I know, outside of a florist shop, where I can find calla lilies. I was surprised to find black calla lilies during my last visit. I didn't even know those existed! They were simply beautiful and, combined with their purple companions, made for a beautiful bouquet for my home. read more

A busy but cleanly location. Conveniently located in a shopping center so you can shop til you drop. They have a great selection of fruits and veggies and have sample stations where they test run new products. I tasted the cranberry sauce and kettle chips. The cranberry sauce (jarred) was amazing. The kettle chips weren't my cup of tea. I did pick up some orange and lemon slices which work as a substitute for lemon in tea and lemonhead candies. read more

TJs is a classic for a reason! This one on Rockville Pike is much more spacious than their DC locations, although unfortunately grocery stores cannot sell alcohol in MD. The frozen section and speciality treats are always worth a perusal to see what new seasonal items are in stock. Love the samples on the weekend, and the flowers here are fresher than anything at the nearby Giant's or Safeway. The employees are always so friendly and helpful, and it's always a treat coming here! read more

As far as Trader Joe's goes this location is great. I won't even begin to talk about the parking lot because obviously you can't have a Trader Joe's without a horrible parking lot attached. Overall I visit this Trader Joe's a couple of times a month. I love their specialty sections of vegetarian items! This is also a great option for lunches, their freezer meals are great but so are there wraps and salads. A couple of occasions I have stopped in and noticed my items out of stock. This is obviously disappointing and can be frustrating, but employees are always super friendly and apologetic. Everyone working The registers are friendly and strike up a conversation. They often give suggestions on things to try, or give feedback on items that I am buying. The space does feel a little cramped, but it could be that I am used to larger Trader Joe's. Overall this is a great grocery store that has something for everyone. It's hard to go wrong with Trader Joe's. read more

All the peeps who work here deserve like, at least one high-five. Imagine this: you approach the line. It wraps around the store. You're thinking, well damnit, this is where I live now I guess. But SURPRISE. These dudes keep the line moving and you are back out in civilianization trying to remember where tf you parked in no time at all. Here's the thing. Everyone thinks TJ's is more expensive. It really isn't. The products are actually stocked regularly and if you can't find things like chicken or fresh fish at any neighboring market, you can probably find it at TJ's (and for less money). The staff here have the patience of saints. If they snap at you than you probably deserved it. I used to work in and manage a number of retail-type stores for like 10+ years and these guys are truly an example of people doing their best. Also, buy their plants! I have an Organic Italian Parsley plant I got from them almost 2 years ago and it's still kicking! And don't overlook their card selection, browse while standing in line and you won't be sorry! read more

People from Hawaii love all things Trader Joe's, not only because of the affordable prices, but also because this is one of the few chains that doesn't have any stores in Hawaii...yet. We can dream. The plethora of yummy sweet and savory snacks available is amazing, and they always have new products to try. This time I found "umami powder," which includes ground mushrooms. Can't wait to see if it tastes better than it sounds. The banana nut crisps were really good, they tasted like banana bread but in cracker form. Wish I had bought a case. My favorite snacks include the s'mores chocolates, chocolate covered anything, 1-lb chocolate bars, hazelnut chocolate bars, cinnamon cookies, biscotti, and of course, cookie butter. They also have some great, inexpensive body lotions and soaps. I love their new coconut lemongrass blend body oil, it's not greasy and smells refreshing and not too strong. Ive been a fan of their tea tree soap, shampoo, and conditioner products for years. On my last visit I had to buy a cheap bag to check in a my TJ goodies, but it was totally worth it! read more

Love Trader Joe's it's one of my favorite groceries stores. It is located right next to Ross and David's Bridal. They have lots of organic food. It is my go to place for fruits and veggies they are always ripe, juicy, and stocked well. They have tons of different foods than regular groceries stores since they do not carry those brands but their own. The reason for not having 5 stars is because of the parking situation and slower cashiers. It would be very convenient also if they could get a self checkout for people with 10 or less items. read more
