The Trader Joe’s in buffalo is great. The only exception is that the meat and fruits get spoiled quickly and the worker could be a little bit more friendlier and less stuck up.

Update: I got creamer that was leaking while checking out. One of the workers replaced it with another leaking creamer that was also spoiled when I checked at home.

I love Trader Joe's, their staff is always friendly and accommodating. The produce is always good. I love the food selection.

I was greeted by such friendly staff. I found the shelves to be very well stocked. So many brands and varieties of food yet for a semi-small space it didn't even seem crowded because it was arranged so beautifully. I would certainly recommend this store to anyone. I also appreciate the great paper bags with sturdy handles.

I love everything I've ever gotten at Trader Joe's. I made my monthly trip to fill my freezer with gluten free bagels, and picked up a gorgeous hyacinth plant, potted tulips, and tons of other goodies. This location is always clean and organized, and there have been greeters at the door with sanitizer and cart wipes throughout covid.

They have an amazing selection of delicious products, great prices and some of the nicest staff I’ve ever had the pleasure of meeting. They gave us a bouquet of flowers today just for shopping there and thanked us for coming in. It’s such a refreshing experience to be treated this way (especially while grocery shopping). Keep up the good work Trader Joe’s team!

They almost always have what I want. They will check if they are out of an item to see when it's coming in. Great cut flowers.

While in the store earlier today an employee & I were chatting. I told her that I'd moved to VA 2 years ago & there isn't a Trader Joe's anywhere near me, so I stop in when I'm town. When she asked why I'd come for a visit I told her that my friend had passed away & I was here for her service.
She gave her condolences & a few minutes later approached me & gave me flowers. She explained that Trader Joe's was happy that I always made a trip while in town & how sorry they were about the loss of my friend.
I already loved this store & their great employees, but am just so touched by the empathy I was shown today. Thank you, from the bottom of my heart, for being such a great place to shop!

I am just over the moon and absolutely mind blown with the customer service at Trader Joe’s. It was outstanding!
It was the first time I have been there since the pandemic started! I live out in the south towns so to make the trip sometimes is long. But it was totally worth it. I was greeted upon entering the store!
I was originally there looking for the little succulent and the employee kindly showed me right where they were (funny enough right at the front of the door, don’t know how I missed them!)
She also showed me the beautiful orchid I ended up getting (not pictured) and then also showed me their “Secco” wine selection!
She gave me opinion on the strawberry and raspberry being her favorite! I wish I could remember her name she was so kind and helpful!
I don’t usually take the time to review a grocery store, but my overall experience was amazing!
I can’t wait to go back and try some other Secco flavors!
(I also purchased a non aerosol dry shampoo, best purchase I’ve made on a dry shampoo! I can’t stop raving about it!)
I don’t care how long the trek is out there I will make it every time!

My first shopping experience as a new Buffalonian was amazing! From the entrance throughout the whole experience it was great. They even gifted my daughter a bouquet of flowers as congratulations for her new baby

Unique and terrific food items that run the gamut of everything I like! An exceptional, helpful staff! Overall a truly enjoyable shopping experience! - I left that review within the last 6 months, but today is Thursday, 2/25/2021. I felt that it was extremely important to add to my last positive review of this very unique, fine and helpful food market. A particular manager of this Trader Joe's on Niagara Falls Boulevard in Amherst, New York, Aaron is a terrific person, a true professional who has always been friendly and helpful. This isn't saying that everyone else in this store isn't as helpful, as everybody always is. Everyone in this store is an 11 on a 1-10 scale. No matter who you speak with, whether it's the people helping you bag your groceries at the checkout who make sure that cold is with the cold, veggies are all in one bag, etc, or if it's someone unpacking produce or other products on the floor. You can ask anyone in this store a question, and you'll always get a smile and a good feeling with your answer. They're all some of the finest and most helpful people I've ever found in any store anywhere I've ever shopped at in my 66 years on planet Earth. But now back to this store's manager, Aaron. Aaron is just so quality oriented, with such an innate sense of people (something I think you have to be born with), that if I was still in the middle of my 32 years of owning restaurants, I would definitely attempt to steal him away. When you meet Aaron and speak with him, even more so if you're business oriented and part of your job is dealing with employees who have to deal with the public, you get a strong sense of Aaron's professionalism. The fact is that Aaron truly likes people, and is very pleased when he can be of help. This is the basis of one of his finest attributes, which is company representation in its highest form. Aaron has become an acquaintance whom I look forward to seeing, saying hello to and having a bit of a chat with when I go into Trader Joe's on Niagara Falls Boulevard in Amherst, New York. It's such a pleasure to know that people like Aaron are out there in the retail world. Besides the store and all its people making me feel comfortable, I'm sure I'm not the only person who looks forward to going to Trader Joe's on Niagara Falls Boulevard in Amherst, New York, knowing that Aaron's professionalism, helpfulness and friendliness will be there to greet them. I'm sure the employees respect him as much as I do, since my innate business sense tells me that they know that if they allow him to help them to be their best, they will definitely prosper and succeed.

Its amazing grocery store. You get many frozen varieties and fresh vegetables. They maintain good safety protocol during the covid times. Staff is very efficient and they manage crowd well. Love their double paper bagging system.

Clean store, friendly staff, decent prices. Nothing bad to say except for the customers that don't know how to drive in a parking lot, but that's not the store's fault.

Love the customer service at Trader Joe's. Lost my glove while I was shopping. Mentioned it to an employee in one of the aisles. Less than 5 minutes later that same employee came over and handed me my glove. She took it upon herself to go to the desk to see if someone turned it in. One of the many reasons I love shopping here!

Great and safe shopping trip! Greeters had hand sanitizer and a cart or basket ready for you, when walking in the front door. Was quite busy but not over crowded and people and staff were very polite about personal space, which has been a big thing for me since well before the pandemic. I love Trader Joe's for their unique and delicious foods that you don't find elsewhere. Salsa, cookie dough cookie butter, scallion pancakes, mixed colored carrots, and more! Check them out! A+

It can be a very busy store with a lot of rude customers who are looking at things they don't understand and probably won't buy but because it's currently trendy and organic they want it. For a business in the area that's great and if you as a customer who wants fresh produce, milk and eggs then but if you're not used to the store such as this you would still expect it to have a better flow and be more organized as to what is in each aisle. The flower, home soup/home whatever, and produce sections were very nice with their selections as well as the egg and milk section, everything else.well, good luck.

I went to Trader Joes for the very first time and I loved it! Great unique products which I would love to try them all! I bought alot of items and only spent $100. Prices were reasonable and it was very clean. Busy on a Sunday so I had to wait in line outside store because they would let a person inside when someone left the store. I cannot say anything bad about this place, other than you will want to try everything! Fun place
