8/12/24 adding....Trolley Stop thank you for that information! 🙂 My friend, my mother and myself went there on August 9th to continue celebrating my 50th birthday from the day before. We had never been there before so I said I wanted to do a birthday lunch. The Trolley Stop was the place that I wanted to go. Parking was not horrible considering they had the Oregon district blocked off for the weekend. We came around 1:30 almost 2 o'clock, and it was not crowded at all. Our server was very courteous and made sure that everything was all right with our food. We all ended up getting salads and the salad was delicious! The only downside to going to the Trolley Stop (and they can correct me if I am wrong) But according to the words that was printed on the steps, the restrooms are upstairs, which is two flights of stairs. My mom has a walker so getting to the restroom would have been impossible for her. I don't know if they actually have a restroom downstairs but for anyone who has a walker or wheelchair...going to the restroom would probably be out of the question. But I could be wrong. The price of our salad was reasonable. It was a large salad and it was only $8. I would definitely visit again but not with my mom as she uses a walker.

We went a little before noon on a Friday hoping for brunch, but was told that only happens on Saturday mornings. So I ordered a cup of the potato soup with bacon and cheese. That was very good although for people who want something mild might find it a bit spicy. I also had a bowl of the Tex-Mex rice and beans. It was quite a large portion as I took home about half of it. My husband ordered the jalapeno pepper grilled cheese with jelly and a cup of chili and he liked both. I tasted the grilled cheese and I also liked that. He had a cup of beer and I had iced tea to drink. The service was excellent, very friendly. When we were there, people sat both inside and outside on the patio, which looked very nice. The whole restaurant is a lot larger than you would expect just seeing it from the front. Eighties music was playing in the background very quietly. It was not a distraction. We parked out on the street, however there is a parking area next door to the restaurant called Lucky's . We will return again, hopefully for brunch next time!

I recently visited the Trolley Stop in Dayton and had a fantastic time there. Nestled in the vibrant Oregon District, this spot is a true gem with its inviting patio and eclectic vibe. I tried the "Patio Pounder" cocktail, a delightful rum-based drink that was absolutely refreshing—perfect for enjoying outdoors. Another highlight was the vegan queso and chips; it was deliciously flavorful and a great option for anyone looking for vegan-friendly fare. The Trolley Stop's atmosphere is laid-back and friendly, making it an ideal place to relax and unwind. The staff was welcoming and attentive, adding to the overall great experience. Whether you're in the mood for a unique cocktail or tasty vegan snacks, the Trolley Stop in Dayton is definitely worth a visit. The Patio Pounder and vegan queso come highly recommended from my visit!

Hello I’m Rocky - using mom’s account because I am a dog. A few weeks ago I had my first dining out experience at The Trolley Stop. We sat outside on the patio of course. Mom and Dad enjoyed patio beers while I watched the birds jump around in the ivy and looked at the fishies in the little pond. THEN a nice lady named Natalie in a pretty dress and hat brought ham AND cheese from the doggie menu. My favorites! So nice that they have special selections just for us dogs. After my snacks were gone - mind you I waited patiently for each one because I am a GOOD BOY - I got pets and love from new friends before heading home to dream of more ham. I will definitely be back! Thank you Trolley Stop! Woof!
