They don’t have that big of a GF selection but they do have AMAZING GF muffins by the bread section. They’re in the upper right end of the store, on the far left of the bread shelf. Highly recommend their cinnamon ones, they are amazing.

I wish they would put all their GF options in one section but perhaps it wouldn't be that big. :p Their GF frozen pizza is the best I've tried as well as their crispy chocolate chip cookies. But that's really it. Besides the gf penne and brown rice tortillas (which taste like paper), they now stock GF flour. most of their marinated meats have gluten so stay clear. And, if you are GFCF, TJs is a quick stop for a few things. Unfortunately their coconut creamer has been bad every time I bought one so never again.

I'm not a Trader Joe's groupie (I don't get it 🤷) but they do have some good gluten free goodies. I don't go here for regular grocery shopping because they don't have a ton of gf options. I usually go here once or twice a year to get gifts for my family who don't have access to a TJs. There are, however, two things I ALWAYS get for myself while I'm there...their little rice crackers 🤤 and gf arare which I haven't found anywhere else! Both totally worth a visit to TJs 🙌

I really like Trader Joe’s GF English muffins. We use them for egg sandwiches and prefer them to hamburger buns. Good tomato soup and rice crackers. They also have really good fresh big GF cookies in bread section. True they do have other GF items in different parts of store.

I like a lot of their products and they are great about labeling products that are gluten free. It's important to note though that their oats are not celiac safe. I have celiac and stay away from their products that contain oats, even if they are labeled gluten free.
