Trader Joe's is the BEST. Great food, great selection, prices, great people and great location.

Who discovered California ? Exploring California street in San Francisco from the avenues to the FiDi can be quite the adventure. Over 5 miles of California street connecting with lots of major streets throughout San Francisco. I do enjoy doing a pit stop at a hidden treasure along California and Hyde street. Trader Joe's is one of the earliest ones to open in San Francisco. Inside there are lots of drinks and a food selection you can explore. You will find frozen foods, fruits , ice cream , and wine. There are also free samples of food inside and they also have events like the Hoison sauce recipe contest. The traditional Hawaiian shirts are worn by the employees which gives this place a relaxing shopping vibe. It puts me in a good state of mind . So who discovered California ? The answer is Juan Rodríguez Cabrillo discovered present-day state of California in 1542. Come slide and go inside and find good food that is raw and some food that needs to be fried This San Francisco Trader Joe's space is wide with a good vibe that doesn't hide located on the streets of California and Hyde

Most Trader Joe's that l've come across are located in the suburbs or in the city. This one was down the street from Nob Hill in a cute neighborhood of San Francisco. Summer is definitely a hot month, but during the evenings near The Bay can get quite chilly and windy. There were also lots of flowers out store front, end-aisle displays of everything and anything perfect for a BBQ. Picking up few groceries was mainly the purpose of this visit. From snacks to coffee to basically anything you might have forgotten in your toiletry bag or restock some items back home. Price is always right, service from all clerks and cashiers are very consistent whenever you visit any Trader Joe's in any state. It was almost store closing time, kind of busy as I normally would visit during the after work hours. It could have been that rush before everyone heads back home from work. Cashier was super quick and friendly, store is well kept and organized, I love the building decorations as it had a lot of San Fran all over the walls. The hardest part was heading back to the hotel at the top of Nob Hill.

We were just visiting but we happened to find a Trader Joe's down the hill from our hotel. It was so nice to get OJ and Fresh pressed Red Juice without the huge hotel mark up. Plus, we got some steps in as well. My husband was able to get his beets and I was able to get some bubbly before heading back to our hotel. It's so nice to have a TJs nearby when we were traveling.

Going to Trader Joe's is one of my regular routines to keep me mentally sane. I use to get a little frustrated when they move things around or stop carrying certain items. I've gotten use to it and now I say it is not so bad. Even when they running out of stock I know they are trying their hardest to keep it in stock. And this is ok with me. Compare to the other things and people that I have deal with in my actual life they are doing a great job. I never had a bad experience at the checkout line. I don't know what people are talking about. In fact, I find it rather enjoyable and too quick. Then I can't wait till I'm at home cooking, eating, and drinking something delicious. Not only was I a Trader Joe's fan I always wanted to invest Trader Joe's. One of my biggest disappointment was when I found out they were a privately owned company. I'm more than sure I would have 10x my amount by now. Oh well, I just have to settle for just shopping there and being poor. I have a checklist on my phone to remind me of all the things I need that I check and check off. It is a list of single items and groups of items. Single items would be like eggs, cheese, wine, beer, etc. Groups of items would be like ingredients for pizza, ingredients for vegetables medley, ingredients for salad; then I sub-list all the items in the notes. Hope this is helpful. I wish you good shopping.
