Great if you have a car I suppose. At present it seems Rego Park still wins with a quick hop on the Q53.
Wish they'd moved into the old Northern Blvd Walgreens when they had the chance.

This trader joes is next to the 7 train and 3 blocks from the E and M trains.  Court street station.

The train is right there -- Court Square. From JH it can't get much easier, since it's convenient for those who live near the 7 and also those who live near the E/M/7. It probably doesn't make much sense to drive to the new one in LIC because there's no parking lot, and no guarantee you'd get a street spot.

I went there yesterday. Very spacious and lovely daylight windows at the checkout. Would have been perfect if the elevator to the 7 train had been working - thanks to the kind young man who schlepped my bag up.the stairs. I'll try to familiarize myself with any alternative entrances next time. Very glad they opened!

 I also went a few days ago, too. Wished they would create shelf specifically for new items like at other TJs. Could you use the Queens Plaza station for the E/R/M trains?

Thanks, yes, I'll be exploring the area, including access to Gantry park when it's cooler. I've been accustomed to going via Vernon-Jackson.

This Trader Joe's in Court Sq is great.

No lines when I went. And that's a miracle when it comes to any other Trader Joe's I have ever been to.

Definitely handy for stopping there on the way back from Manhattan . (E, M or 7 trains.)

Their prices etc make it worth the stop.
