| What is it like? What is the parking situation like. Is it worth going to or is the traffic in Clarendon a nightmare? |

The new TJ is on Highland, near the Clarendon metro.
I went yesterday. It was nice. The employees are helpful. Everything was stocked. It's like other TJs that I've been to. |

| i'm in clarendon several days a week - traffic generally isn't too bad except on Clarendon Blvd during evening rush when the whole foods parking lot backs up onto the street. Actually, that might improve if some shoppers switch to TJ's. I suspect this store will be a huge moneymaker for the chain - lot of money in that area and it's been kind of underserved, grocery-wise. |

| With the insanity of the Whole Foods parking lot, I'd bet Trader Joe's will make a killing in Clarendon. I refuse to go to WF because of that effing parking lot. |

| It's awesome! I live int he area so parking isn't an issue, but they do have a free 90 minute garage. Employees are super friendly and it is well stocked. I had never been to a TJ before and I'm hooked! |

Just park in the lot directly across the street, on the Clarendon Blvd side. Take your ticket with you and get the cashier to validate it on your way out. No point waiting in that silly line for the main lot, it's pretty ridiculous. |
