My husband and I ate one Sunday brunch here. Near the entrance was a gift shop that sold merchandise such as candles, totes, and hats. Past that area was a cafe with a counter. An employee promptly greeted us and walked us to a dining room in the back. The menu for Sunday brunch listed pancakes, waffles, French toasts, omelets, biscuits and gravy, salads, sandwiches, and more. Prices were reasonable. Our waitress provided timely and courteous service. I ate the Berry Patch Pancakes, which were a large size and were topped with a generous amount of blackberry drizzle, berries, and whipped cream and a side of syrup. My husband ate the Eggs Benedict, which consisted of two poached eggs, Canadian bacon, toasted English muffins, and hollandaise sauce. The eggs were perfectly runny, and his side of home fries were nicely seasoned. The total price for our brunch was $26 plus a tip. In a span of a couple of days in Washington County, we ate at several restaurants, and this one was our favorite.

We used to own an ice cream store so I love to find places like this and hope to have the best…read moreexperience. The store is inviting both inside and out. There is seating in both places. They serve food as well as ice cream, but I was only focused on the ice cream. There is hard and soft ice cream as well as lots of specialty items. Since I just finished a huge dinner, I ordered a small twist. Normally I would order a "blizzard", but they only have a 20 oz option. Had there been a smaller one, I would have gone there. My twist was served on my requested sugar cone for which I was happy. Often times places say they can't use a sugar cone for a twist. I know better and so does this place. Their soft serve was so similar to ours that I have to think they use the same dairy product. It was rich and creamy and wonderful. So happy we found this and since it's so close to the Drury Inn where we stay when in town, I know I will be back.

While in the area and looking for a place to get ice cream, I discovered this place online. I had…read morenever been before, and never heard of it as I am not from this side of Pittsburgh! My visit was on a Saturday night in May around 9:30 PM. It was not crowded at all, as we were one of a few groups there at the time. Plenty of seating options both inside and out, and we had no issue finding seating that worked for us. There was no line to order, so after taking a minute or two to look over the menu, I went to put in the order. The girls working the counter were very personable and helpful. They let me sample a few of the flavors, and were engaging in conversation with all of the customers when waiting on them. The shop had a bigger menu with some food items like pizza, appetizers, salads, and more, but we did not try any on this trip. It would be a one-stop shop for dinner and dessert to come here and eat from both the food menu and then the ice cream menu. We ordered two of the Specialty Sundaes - the Chocolate Chip Cookie and the Greek Style. Both are served with vanilla soft serve. I believe you can switch that out for a different flavor or type, but we stuck with the vanilla. The sundaes were not bad, but they were very average. The price of these were both $7.99 each before tax, and I would have thought they would be a little bigger. On the Greek Style, the baklava was in pieces crumbled over the top as opposed to a larger, singular piece. The cookie on the Chocolate Chip Cookie Sundae was not an oversized one that usually comes on sundaes like that at other shops. I am not sure what kind it was, but it appeared to be something mass produced, almost like a Chips Ahoy. Again, they were not bad, but for the price and the fact that they were on the Specialty Sundae menu, I would have expected more than what we got. I thought the prices here were high for the quality and quantity of the items. I am not sure if the value was there for the prices, but I would have to determine that after visiting another time or two to see if it was a one-off or if that is how it is for everything. I enjoyed getting to try this place. It has a good atmosphere, and is probably a lively place in the summertime and when the weather is nice. I would be interested to try more of the menu on a return trip. I am not sure if I would recommend the Speciality Sundaes, but the hard ice creams that I sampled were good and worth getting if you are stopping here!

I stopped by for ice cream, but noticed they have a full menu of savory items as well. I ordered a single scoop of coffeehouse cookies and cream. It was an extra $0.50 to pay with a card, but the prices are already very fair so it wasn't an issue at all. I waited maybe a minute and then my ice cream was ready at the next window. The service is prompt and friendly. The only downside is the parking lot is situated at a weird angle to the road that it's on. If you pull head in to the spot, it's very difficult to pull out again without worrying about all of the oncoming traffic and the line of cars waiting right behind you for the light to change at the intersection.

We weren't quite sure about the ordering at the register process. The menu offerings are on a chalkboard behind the register and the waitress was patient with us as we looked over everything. I ordered pancakes with bacon and coffee. The pancakes were just what you'd want when you think of pancakes. Good size, fluffy, and tasty. The three strips of bacon were cooked right, slightly crispy with a little chewy bite. The coffee was hot and kept hot with a frequent topper. Trolley Barn is exactly what you'd expect from a neighborhood place, everyone seemed to be regulars, and the decorating is very much a taste of a bygone era in a good way. Not really a diner, but definitely a casual place to get some good food. Staff was friendly, and my husband and I have definitely added Trolley Barn to our list of good places to get breakfast.
