Millburn residents are thrilled!  Trader Joes  is a specialty grocery store with really great coffee, I might add. Now we no longer have to shlep to East Hanover!

Pet Smart’s original application was opposed because their application had included a pet hotel, so they reapplied as a retail store with grooming. cat adoption, and dog training services . They will occupy 15,000 square feet and Trader Joes will occupy approximately 13,000 square feet of the WholeFoods building.

Millburn/Short Hills residents- what do you think?  Will you go to Trader Joes over Whole Foods in Vaux Hall? I personally think that the new Whole foods is too big, and even though its only 5 minutes further, its no longer our “neighborhood” grocery store. Your thoughts?
