I've been shopping at TJ's since the early 90's. I like the cheese (altho Cosco has almost as good a selection for half the price but obviously you have to buy a ton more), pasta, soups (Roasted pepper and tomato bisque- amazingly tasty) and ok bread. I'm very happy now that they offer nitrate free meat in the deli section. I find it a good supplement to the local farmer's market and my csa box.

Things I hate about TJ's are mostly:
parking at other locations
long check out lines
congestion in the aisles

The reason I shop out in suburbia rather than the TJ zoo in Emeryville
Close to work ( I can walk- I shit you not)
Massive parking lot if I drive
No lines
No people
