OUR STORY
Our stone-and-brick building has watched Oella Avenue change for two centuries. The floors still creak in the right places.
Crab cakes shaped by hand, soups started in the morning, and a bar that pours generously into the evening.
Cyclists off the Trolley Line #9 Trail, families from Ellicott City, and regulars who have had the same table for years.
Karaoke, Open Mic and Happy hour
Your time to shine!
Join us at the Trolley Stop Restaurant and Bar for HAPPY HOUR, Tuesday through Friday from 2 to 6 PM.
Enjoy KARAOKE on Friday nights starting at 9 PM—big fun, great food, and friends you haven’t met yet await you at the Trolley Stop Restaurant!
Don’t miss our OPEN MIC on Wednesday nights at 9 PM. Come out and share those pieces you’ve been putting together before a live audience at the Trolley Stop!
