Everyone loves Trader Jos's - especially me, as I am a Crew Member there! Just five blocks down the hill from my home. If you are from out of state or out of the country, you must buy one of our reusable bags, featuring the South Bay.

Jay Leno performs here every Sunday night! This is a world class comedy venue and the food and drinks are decent too. I usually walk down from the house and take Uber home up the hill.
