Trader Joe's

Parking at this TJ is a little tight. Best to park on the street if you can to avoid the 8 point turn to get out of the parking lot. But other than that, this is a great TJ.

And I mean the gratest cheeses. GRATED!. Where else can you find quality grated cheeses that you can add to your most delightful dishes without all of the work? Take something from their frozen section and add a delightful cheese to any of their salad choices and you have a fabulous dinner. Don't forget bread from their wonderful selections. Stop by their veggie and fruit section and grab some blackberries for the freezer. Rinse them in the container and put in the freezer while preparing dinner. Shake and add to a fabulous chardonnay or champagne glass before adding the bubbly. A great way to get your serving of fruits:)!! I just love my TJs - all of them in Pasadena, California. I go to whichever I'm closest to. If I want a movie at Blockbuster on South Lake, I walk across the street to TJs. If I want a restaurant night I go to the one in East Pasadena. And if I'm coming home from my son's school, Arroyo Parkway is my shopping spot. They're all convenient and economical. Quality choices for your family at have the price of the huge markets.

I agree that the parking is limited, but they have a great selection of frozen foods - maybe even more than other stores. And the staff are really friendly.
