Nice place, alot of good selections of fresh foods, frozen items, alot of choices and a lot cheaper then Natural Grocers. I drove from Pueblo to go here and was happy with what they have. It's a very busy place. The staff were friendly helping and greeting customers. Just beware that some of the customers I encountered were rude and pushy but other then that it's a great health food store.

First time to Trader Joe's. Am I missing something?! Everything I read about Trader Joe's is that it's the end all, be all shopping experience! Um no. I went twice here hoping to have a different opinion the second time- it's way overcrowded, there's actually not a lot of allergy-friendly items....there's a lot of organic but not allergy-friendly, and the prices are pretty high. Disappointed to be honest.April 2023:Update after trying some of the products purchased- the blue corn chips....HUGE bag! 1 POUND! And yummy! The salsa verde....really good as I do not like spicy and it's not spicy to the point I can't eat it. The pesto....good. And the Scandinavian Swimmer jelly candies....ADDICTIVE! Seriously would come to Trader Joes just for these candies!Okay...so Trader Joe's went from 3 to 4 stars due to the yumminess of the products I purchased...but still hold on the fact that it is SUPER overcrowded and not a lot of allergy friendly items.Update March 2024:I gave this place another shot- mainly because I heard that Trader Joe's is owned by Aldi's, and can I just say I LOVE LOVE LOVE Aldi's. So.....I ventured to Trader Joe's again. Some things I noticed on this trip that I appreciated...There are lots of beautiful flowers and plants outside that look and smell amazing! The prices are really fair on them as well. In addition, I really appreciate that there is a sign outside that states they do not allow social media "influencers" to film inside, advertise, etc and that we can have a peaceful shopping experience without worrying about loud "obnoxious" people and cameras everywhere. I went with a mission to find certain products and I was successful in finding all but one- could not find beet chips :(. I love how they have the kumato tomatoes and they have cherry and grape size heirloom tomatoes there as well- very very fair prices! I also love the checkout process- very personable and my checkout employee was very friendly and kind. So.....the ratings for this location as well as Trader Joe's overall is 5 stars now! Yes, 5 stars! I would not say I am a Trader Joe's groupie- you hear about these people that fly across the country to stock up on Trader Joe's....I'm not one of those....but I will say I will revisit Trader Joe's again!

Trader Joe's is generally a good store. It has cheap and healthy food. I like how they have their own branded food that tastes good. Although the store is always busy, it's pretty small for the demand. So, the aisles are always full and hard to get through. The store itself is clean, though. Overall, I recommend going to trader Joe's for the healthy cheap food, be advised it's busy though.

I love this place. Hawaiian connection for sure. They wanted to build one in Hawaii but real estate in Hawaii would prohibit profits.

First-time shopper at Trader joes. I was very surprised that the prices were very reasonable. Although no deli or bakery counter. I didn't feel like i was missing out. They have a large variety for cheeses. I can only do cow cheese, but they did have cashew cheeses and a variety of sheep milk cheeses. They also have packaged deli meli slices. A large majority of their food brand is their own. The produce selections were very nice and priced far better than kings. In sum, it is a great store whether you're vegan, keto, or regular and just want to eat better without all the additives. I say 8 out of 10.

Great store. We got fresh time and basil. Too much candy to get out of the store without some. Must have will power when you shop here.

I really enjoyed Trader Joe's. I haven't been in forever. They have some really unique stuff! I just wish they had wild caught salmonI loved the atmosphere and how easy it is to navigate the store

We absolutely love it here ! A little taste of the west coast living and memories of Santa Cruz, California! This place is clean, lots of variety, flowers everywhere, and lots of minorities! Blacks, Hispanics, Asians, and we felt loved and accepted! One tip. Find out when it's not crowded, and shop with ease. Or else...it's gonna be a bit congested during rush hour. We for sure will return !

Trader Joe's is one of those places that if you have never been to one, you have to go. They have specialty snacks, a small but decent produce section, and really good frozen meals. We were preparing for our baby to be born and wanted to have easy things to grab, while our brains weren't functioning, hence the snacks and frozen meals. Typically they have a decent wine section and a few local beers. This one does have an attached beverage store, but I can not speak for it.Aside: Trader Joe's are usually small, so if you have issues with crowded areas, be warned.

Don't understand the hype. Been there a few times and today is the first time purchasing anything.

The prices are reasonable, the food quality superb, but more than that...these are the friendliest and most helpful employees! They treat customers with respect, a smile and a willingness to drop what they're doing to assist in any way. My only regret is we only have one Trader Joe's in Colorado Springs! And the liquor store attached has fabulous wines (and I don't mean 3 buck Chuck). Try the "Big Curn Buttery Chardonnay." At $5.99 it holds its own with Chardonnay 5 times the price!

It’s a decent whole foods type of grocery store. They have some bomb soup dumplings but are hard to find! Some dye free options as well of different things. Highly recommend if you are looking for a health nut type of store.

I don't go here often because it's always too crowded. However, they let me order in case or half case lots, but no discount. Still I really like their plantain chips and Baby Bananas. I can't get them anywhere else, and their goat yogurt is good.

Extremely rude staff. Kicked me and my service dog out of the store. When I called and spoke to the manager Shannon about my interaction she said the employee was correct to kick me out because my dog was not wearing a vest. However the ADA does not require service animals to wear a vest.

Trader Joe's is already one of the high end stores that lead the markets. Nothing you find at this store that you won't like. The staff at this location was amazing and just helpful with smiling faces. And my favorite part was the Trader Joe's Liquor store right next door. They have some of the better brands plus thier own brand of whisky that has not disappointed yet.

I love Trader Joe's but they need to step up their produce game. I found products on the shelves that were molded and I found mold in products that I bought even though I tried to triple-check everything. They also need to start doing their bring your own reusable bag raffles monthly. I don't know why they stopped.

Always, always so crowded!! We need another one or two in Colorado Springs, so you can have a little space while shopping, as it is, you can't move around. Plus the parking is so tight. For that reason, I rarely shop there. Other than that, the store is fine and employees are fine.

Seriously so impressed by this store, I had a very minor issue that I brought up to the team via an online contact form and they got back to me within the hour! My problem was solved beyond what I expected and their team was so pleasant. Gotta love a company that actually cares about their customers!

I can't believe it but I'm sick of employees talking about nothing to do with the store. What your doing is absolutely boring and I am trying to get something behind the 3 people blocking it and talking drinks. The stocking people are totally fine because they are working. I wish that this was just this trip but it's not. Worse is I got an 1 eye roll and 1 big sigh and one "Oh sorry" with customer service 2 out of 3 is BAD!

I've found another favorite store! The selections was amazing. My favorite is the cheese land (cheese section). I love the different varieties and it seems like there's something new I haven't tried around every corner! The prices are great and quality it outstanding.

Rewriting my former 5 star review to reflect that this location now limits you to how many items you can purchase per visit of certain things. That's quite the put off. Trader Joe's clearly doesn't care for he environmental impact that driving to their store and back has. "We need to have enough for everyone " is the excuse. For a store chain that's allegedly focused on doing good that's not exactly reflecting on their image. "We want you back in every 2 days so you can spend more money every time and waste gas" would be more believable of an excuse....

This is a great place to shop especially for quick meals, snacks and some pretty flowers. They have these milk chocolate covered peanut butter pretzels that are phenomenal but be warned they are highly addictive. Of course I’ll be back here shopping all the time.

This was my first time setting foot into a TJ's. I'd heard so many neat things.... I was also excited bc they are somehow connected to Aldi, who I LOVE! It is a tiny store. I did a complete walk around, but nothing screamed ME! ME! Prices seemed higher than other stores.

Always good vibes and good food. Crowded often, we need another location as the parking gets packed!! Otherwise no complaints, reminds me of a little piece of home!

Great fresh options and interesting finds. The staff is always friendly and the store is always busy. Parking can be a pain but worth it as the prices are right and the unique finds make TDs a weekly visit.

Love Trader Joe’s is our jam!! We have a family of 5 and when prices crept up at other grocery stores we started to buy our produce, pasta, bread, and canned goods here. Lots of good vegetarian options for me and good frozen meals as well. My kids recommend the frozen, orange chicken.

We all know and love Trader Joe’s for their clean foods, great produce and friendly staff! No complaints here - but I will say the parking lots gets pretty busy, so keep that in mind during peak shopping hours

Allways have something new and interesting to try. Very pleased with the nice and low prices that are here. The people who work here are very nice and very helpful. We are sad that they do not have squid ink spaghetti any more. We tried it last time and it was very tasty. Super fun store to shop in with super happy and helpful employees!!!

My kiddos and I love going to Trader Joe's, the products are always great! And my kids love hunting down the baby giraffe 'Grace' for a prize! They even have kids carts!

I LOOOOVE Trader Joe's! I got to know it out on the east coast, and continue the love affair here in Colo Springs today! It is a wonderful tasty quirky fun food shopping place that has its own visual identiy, and ammmmmaaaaazzzing staff and prices.However (and this is a nitpicky thing that has nothing to do with TJ's merchandise or staff).Expect it to be a hairy-stoppy-starty-using- -extra-patience-fest getting into the parking lot, and navigating the parking area, in and out.It has been explained to me that there is a Costco gas pump deeper in the retail complex, and it feeds directly past the Trader Joe's. If people were not so careful, it would be mayhem! (And not Electric Mayhem, sadly :) :) :) )As it is now, it still takes tons of the type of careful communicating and paying attention and giving way that we all used to use when we first started driving, and that is my reasoning for the 4 instead of 5 stars.So simply take that caution and patience with you, from shopping trip beginning to shopping trip end (and not only while you are in the store), and you'll have a great TJ's experience!
