    Avocado Sourdough Toast Brunch
    Ciege A.

    We stopped in for breakfast on a Saturday morning and had no trouble finding a table around 10 am. We chose to sit outside, and the patio was clean and pleasant. The service was good, though it wasn't especially warm or personalized. The food, however, was enjoyable. I had the avocado toast, which was fresh and delicious. A friend ordered the coffee and French toast and really enjoyed both. Prices were in line with what you'd expect for a brunch spot. Overall, it's a solid choice if you're looking for a tasty breakfast in a nice setting.

    We found this place with the power of social media. We were the first group on a Sunday, a bit chilly in the morning, so bring a light coat. Our waitress was very friendly and attentive to us. We had a party of 9 and it didn't seem like a big deal for her. I had the breakfast burrito, I thought it was gonnabe more on the cheesy side with the description, but they used Mexican cheese, so it was the crumble. I guess the sad part was it was on the outside of the burrito, not inside. I also got a side of their house-made jalapeño chicken patty. The texture was similar to a sausage patty, I wanted to like it, but it needed a dipping sauce or something. Someone got a French toast, it was plentiful but on the sweet side. The meaty omelette, was good, they use chorizo, so heads up. It was standard, no complaints. Someone else got the salmon dish, she liked it. Overall, it's a nice breakfast/brunch spot, like aesthetically. But it's not for me.

    Best French Toast in SLC. My husband and I come here for a birthday brunch every year for the Pain Perdu and a side of bacon. Have also tried the breakfast burrito and assorted other dishes which are all excellent. Quaint Paris-vibe cafe on the inside with the coziest patio with tons of umbrella coverage out front. We love to sit outside. Wait staff is kind and quick and also own the restaurant next door. You have to try Trolley Cottage whether you're a local or just visiting. They do not take reservations.

    Breakfast Burrito Brunch
    Samantha C.

    Such a charming little brunch spot! We were greeted by incredibly friendly service. Sadly we came on a rainy day so we could utilize the adorable, however the interior of the restaurant is quaint and cute. The menu is rather small but offers a great variety of options. The breakfast burrito was delicious and the baguette French toast was uniquely delicious. This is located in a popular spot so parking can be a little tricky. But I hope to go back soon to try out the patio!

    Parmesan brioche toast

    Six (five and a child) came on a Sunday afternoon and got seated inside. Everything that we saw being delivered to other tables looked delicious! Four of us ordered the Parmesan brioche toast a the other got the croquet madame. Each with a side of bacon and breakfast potatoes. The croquet madame was good but very cheesy. The Parmesan brioche toast had great flavor and the tomatoes were very herby. We also ordered mimosas and green tea. Overall we enjoyed our brunch and the service and ambience were great. There's street parking, parking behind the or building, or you can park across the street at Trolly Square.

    We stumbled upon this cute little place while walking around Trolley Square. So glad we stopped here. We decided to share the House Smoked Salmon Tartine and the dish was bursting with flavor. We also ordered a side of breakfast potatoes. Service was great, food was delicious and the cafe was super cute. So glad this was our first stop after arriving in Salt Lake City!

    What a yummy breakfast. Highly suggest you come to SLC for a weekend. So much to do here. Great breakfast spot with good service. Hands down one of the best avocado toasts I've tried. Friendly and fast service. Nice umbrella covered patio so we could still enjoy an outdoor meal even in the 90's.

    Eggs Benedict
    Lindsey H.

    YUM! I loved this little gem- we have been two times now and the food was excellent for breakfast both times. A delicious breakfast burrito and the eggs Benedict will be ordered again! Yum!

    Parmesan Brioche Toast

    A hidden gem in SLC. Wonderful ambiance. Everything I ordered was delicious. You can tell it's thoughtfully prepared using good ingredients. Fast and friendly service.

    The restaurant is really small, so in order to secure a table I recommend going early. They also don't have a place indoors to wait for a table so given that it's winter, I recommend bringing a coat. Barring that, they have the most elaborate avocado toast I've ever had! So unexpected and yummy. I don't even like eggs and thoroughly enjoyed the accompanying soft-boiled eggs!

    Pain Perdu side of potatoes
    Jarica B.

    (4.6, only because of a small menu) This is always my go-to for brunch near downtown. Consistent and delicious with quick, great service. The Pain Perdu was cooked to perfection with fresh fruit and the Parmesan brioche toast was also flavorful and filling. I got a side of bacon as well, crispyyyyy.

    Outside at night.
    Season S.

    The food here is so ridiculously good!! The pancakes are the best I've ever had. They are soft and a little cakey inside and crispy outside - 100% perfection! The sandwiches and fries were also excellent!! The inside is so warm and cozy. It's a small space but just lovely. Highly recommend and we will go back for sure!!

    Parmesan brioche toast
    Arielle L.

    Had a delicious brunch here with my sister. My sister has celiac and they were very accommodating, she was thrilled when they had gluten free toast for her. I got the Parmesan brioche toast and couldn't have been happier, everything paired beautifully and the hollandaise was wonderful. Service was friendly and we e joyed sitting outside in the lovely garden. I definitely recommend Trolley Cottage Cafe!

First impressions walking in the vibe is nice, love an open concept kitchen, that way you can really see the efficiency and flow of the staff and that brings a bit of liveliness to the atmostphere. I started off with an Limey Palmer, absolutely delish, loved the crunchy sugar that they mix into the drink for optimal sweetness. As an Arnold Palmer gal this hit the spot. Bonus points for giving me to go cup so I could take the rest with me. For food I got the biscuit Benedict. The hollandaise sauce was a pretty lemony, but I really did enjoy it. In fact, I loved it's so much I came back the following weekend for the same thing, absolutely fantastic. The biscuit with all the fixings was absolutely delightful. Had me thinking about it for a week! 10 out of 10 Benedict from here.

I've tried their Creme Brulee French Toast, biscuits and gravy, avocado toast, and today I tried their Perfect Omelette, but unfortunately all of them have been quite subpar. Unfortunately today was probably our worst experience. I ordered the Perfect Omelette because I saw it had avocado, but when I got it there was no avocado to be seen! Turns out they had run out but didn't tell me when I ordered, which honestly would have made me change my mind. The omelette tasted pretty bland to me, so I had to use plenty of ketchup and Cholula to help. I also usually like their brunch potatoes, but today they seemed less cooked and not as crispy. My bf enjoyed his Eggs Benedict per usual, but agreed the potatoes were worse than normal. Our server, who in the past has usually been quite attentive, was very slow and not attentive at all. He only checked on us to take our order (after we had been seated for at least 10 minutes), and then gave us our check at the end. A different person seemed to be helping him out by giving us water and serving us our food, which we appreciated, but nobody checked on us to see how we liked our meal. We saw people seated in other sections with different servers get seated after but attended to before us, which was a bit frustrating. We wondered if it was because our spot at the window bar seemed to be far from our server's other tables. We kept feeling like we'd been forgotten! Ambiance is very cute, modern, and IG-worthy. For me the food isn't great, but I'll keep working my way down the menu in an effort to find something I like since I know we'll be back for the Eggs Benedict haha. I think I'll try the pancakes next or I guess give the French toast another shot. If those don't work out, I might resort to just their orange juice (which is great because it's freshly squeezed, but unfortunately also room temperature as a result) and something a la carte. I'm giving them a 3/5 overall because service is usually better and because my bf still thinks they have the best EB in the county. But honestly I've never been somewhere where I've tried so many dishes and not liked any of them enough to order again. I also think their prices are high and keep inching up. $16 for their avocado toast is actually absurd! And I find it surprising that for a brunch place, they don't serve lattes/espresso. Hopefully your experience will be better than mine. I've attached all of the photos I've taken here, and you can almost tell how their quality has shifted. I hope they ultimately get better, not worse!

I came here twice in three days. Each time, I ordered a pastry and an iced americano. First time: ham & cheese pastry + coffee Second time: chocolate almond croissant + coffee There is an à la carte/cafe and dine-in option. I did not dine in here, but ordered breakfast twice. You pick your pastries and order coffee with the person at the register in the cafe area, pay, and then pick up your coffee in the pick-up area near the front entrance (right side). They will offer to hear up your pastry for you, say yes every time. Eva's Bakery is just très charmante.

I also ordered another almond chocolate croissant (I know, I know, should have tried something else). Well I did get a cookie too! My lunch was taking a little long, so they also brought out a couple of pastry items to try as well, so yum yum! The Chocolate Macaroon was also so wonderful and I cannot say enough about this quaint spot. It did fill up during lunch on the Thursday, so get there early or late! PROS: Main street, easy access from transportation/offices Great selection of homemade pastries Nice choices for drinks (obviously, I tried a few) Super quaint bistro style inside Outside seating under shade and a tree Attentive and exceptional employees (CONNOR) CONS: Parking may be an issue, although some on-street parking available DON'T THINK, JUST GO!

There must have been a notable person sitting next to us because everyone it seemed that worked in the restaurant stopped by the table and had a conversation with this couple, and when the chef came out and walked right by us to have a conversation with the table next to us, that's when it dawned on me as a chef doesn't normally come out just to talk to a normal person like us. It was a little bit irritating with all the hoopla at the table next to us which put a little bit of damper on our anniversary meal. Especially when our waiter devoted significant time to the "special" table leaving us feeling a bit neglected in a top-tier restaurant like Urban Hill. However, the meal itself was delicious.
