Located at the corners of Mathilda and El Camino in Sunnyvale, the Cherry Orchard Shopping Center is a nice and convenient suburban shopping mall, easy to get to and not far from City Hall. It is well-maintained, clean, and in a safe neighborhood, with very nice design and landscaping. The center houses a variety of stores and eateries, including Trader Joe’s, which is a main reason many people visit, along with Chipotle, P.F. Chang's, and a Starbucks. The Starbucks has good outdoor seating and is not too busy; it is a refurbished historical cherry stand that kept the old water tower.
The shopping center offers a fantastic retail experience with an impressive selection of shops providing something for everyone, from grocery shopping to vegan food, pizzas, buffet dishes, bread, and cakes. A notable highlight is the cherry pie. However, parking can be a challenge; the lot is often full and the spaces can be tight, especially on weekends or Saturday mornings due to a farmer’s market. Patience is advised, and it is recommended to park on the side of the building with less traffic and away from the store front to avoid foot traffic. Despite the busy parking, there are plenty of spaces. The site sits on the location of the last cherry orchard in Sunnyvale, and cherry trees can be seen in bloom nearby in April.
Nice clean store , friendly staff no lines at check out . great service by the cashier.

Located at the corners of Mathilda & El Camino not far from Sunnyvale City Hall, this shopping center is easy to get to. It houses eateries like Chipotle, PJ Chang, etc, as well as Trader Joe's, which is the main reason I come here. Plenty of parking spaces, so no need to fuss over, like Costco.,
