Trader Joe's Anaheim Hills is open. The grocer held its grand opening on Thursday, Oct. 22, 2026, in the former Big Lots space at Anaheim Hills Village, according to the Los Angeles Times. The official Trader Joe's store page now shows the location as "Now Open!"

The essentials

  • Store: Anaheim Hills (No. 295), per the Trader Joe's store locator

  • Phone: 657-213-7194

  • Hours: 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. daily, as posted on the store page for Oct. 25 through Nov. 8, 2026. WhatNow and The Shelby Report also list 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. daily as regular hours.

Because the posted hours cover a specific date range, check the store page before a holiday or late-evening trip.

Where it is

The store sits in the Anaheim Hills Village shopping center on Santa Ana Canyon Road, in a storefront Big Lots previously occupied. Both the LA Times and The Shelby Report place it there.

Some background on the center: in March 2024, REBusinessOnline reported that Tourmaline Capital bought Anaheim Hills Shopping Village at 6300 E. Santa Ana Canyon Road for $16.7 million. The center has 67,528 square feet of retail space, and Big Lots was its anchor tenant at the time of the sale.

The store and its crew

WhatNow and The Shelby Report put the store at 9,769 square feet, and the LA Times describes it as "nearly 10,000-square-foot." WhatNow called it "the first Trader Joe's in Anaheim Hills" and named Louis Day as Store Captain.

On staffing, WhatNow reported the store "hired more than forty new Crew Members from surrounding areas." The Shelby Report adds that other employees transferred in from nearby stores.

Opening day

The doors opened at 9 a.m. on Oct. 22. WhatNow said the grand opening would include "samples and giveaways," with Day and the crew on hand. The LA Times described video of customers lining up through the shopping plaza to get in. The paper also quoted a customer's Google review: "Lines go quickly since all cashiers are efficient and they never let guests wait unduly." The review ended with "New favorite store in Anaheim Hills!"

What changes for neighbors

Before this opening, shoppers in the hills generally headed to a neighboring city for Trader Joe's. The nearest options were the Mall of Orange store (No. 46) at 2114 N Tustin St in Orange and the Yorba Linda store (No. 176) at 19655 Yorba Linda Blvd. Both are still open, and Anaheim Hills now has its own store on Santa Ana Canyon Road. The Trader Joe's locator lists this store under "Anaheim Hills." It has no separate "Anaheim" entry in its California list, so search for Anaheim Hills when you look it up.

Where unsold food goes

WhatNow reported that through the Neighborhood Shares Program, the store will donate 100% of products that go unsold but are still fit to eat.

Part of a larger expansion

The Anaheim Hills store is one of 30 new stores Trader Joe's is opening, Fast Company reported on Oct. 20. Two of them opened that week, with 28 more to follow. The other was in West Jordan, Utah, which was set to open Friday, Oct. 23, the day after Anaheim Hills.
