Trader Joe's, Portland, Maine Restaurant Details

Food:

Way cheaper than Hannaford's or Shaws. Great place to shop for someone with a budget!

Food:

Coming from Naples Florida was thrilled to find this gem right around the corner from Whole Foods Market. By far - the nicest store layout and floor design for a Trader Joe's I have experienced. The Naples Florida store has all the checkouts facing a wall, so you have to drive your cart towards the wall, then back around to the door to exit. Employees at this store seem genuinely interested and happy to be at work, which puts Whole Foods Market to shame. More and more I am replacing items on my WFM shopping list with Trader Joe's items. I just wish your parking lot wasn't such a total CF to navigate, but this is Portland and what can you do?! Keep up the great customer experience Trader Joe's!

Food:

Tj's makes shopping an adventure. Who doesn't love this place.

Food:

Fantastic selection and excellent prices, signature items are my fave! Especially Coffee, cheese, and bakery

Food:

"Yay! I'm a fan" perfectly describes Trader Joe's for me. It's not a must have, but I'm glad there's one close by my home. There are a few items that I buy at Joe's that I cannot get anywhere else, such as the roasted red pepper tomato soup. I also love the Trader Joe's brand Greek yogurt. I also cannot go to Joe's without swinging by the samples station to see what they are pushin! The employees are always friendly and seem to be happy doing their jobs. The fresh flowers are great and I love to stop and smell them. The frozen section is also top notch- I'm always finding something new to try when I peruse these aisles.

There are two reasons I cannot give Joe's five stars. The first reason is because the parking lot is a war zone! The spaces are way to small and just begging to have your doors dinged by parking in them. The lot itself is shared between multiple businesses and too small to begin with. The other reason I cannot give Joe's five stars is because it cannot be my one stop grocery store. I cannot go there to do all of my grocery shopping, mainly because the meat section does not have the variety or quantities that the mainstream grocery stores offer. The prices here are reasonable, more so I believe than their competitors.
