You'll love the building Trader Joe's is in! It is right off of the Subway (Q/B/R) so you can easily swing by if you are coming back from Manhattan. In the building on the same floor as Trader Joe's you'll find a food court with incredible local choices. So convenient! Also in the building is a movie theater, Target, and other shops.
