Great place for breakfast! Loved the waffle with strawberries and whipped cream that my son ate. They also have a great selection to choose from with eggs, grits, omelets to help make your morning great. Staff there is fun, fast and friendly which helped make the start to our day awesome. Come early or with time since it tends to be a popular place and will get crowded.Enjoy!

Stopped in on Saturday morning and was surprised that there was no wait for a table. The server was very pleasant and attentive. I really enjoyed the belgian waffle with strawberries, bananas, pecans. It was nicely plated but there was a bit too much whipped topping for me. The pancakes were hot and fluffy and the bacon was hot and crispy. I hadnt dined there in several years but it was a good visit.

We popped into this Cafe as it was close to our hotel. It was the best choice ever! The prices were so reasonable and the food was amazing! The red beans and rice were the best I have ever had. At this place you will never need to pick up a salt or pepper shaker. The waiter was super nice too. We went to a fancier restaurant later that evening and that food didnt even begin to be as good as Trolley Stop! This was just some darn good cooking. Do yourself a favor and eat here!

Waited 15 minutes to get our name on the waiting list. No line; just nobody would take our name. Waited another 15 minutes to be seated. Waited 15 minutes for someone to come to our table after we were seated.Ordered “The big Easy” with the eggs over medium. The eggs came out scrambled.(It seems as though they are just reopening after the Covid shutdown and they are short on help.)

This is a local breakfast and lunch spot on St Charles. The prices are really cheap. The service was good too. Left a good tip. Anyway they have trolley pics on the walls. Problem is theyre only open at select times. Check the schedule. But good food and service when they are. I ordered the liver and eggs with a side of bacon. SHRIMP omelette to go

Stopped in for a late morning brunch. Ordered the Fried Green Tomato BLT, it was amazing. Thick sliced fried green tomatoes paired with an amazing candied bacon. Definitely hit the spot before starting the day.

My companion and I love this place and travel there from the Westbank. However, we had the same waiter as our last visit and cant imagine how this guy keeps his job. Hes absolutely the worst waiter weve had in years anywhere. Dont want to pull the race card, but unless youre an attractive young woman of color, you can forget about getting food while its still hot or getting a coffee refill. Had to ask another server for our bill since our waiter was too busy flirting with the ladies at the table next to us to acknowledge us waving for our bill. He brought our hash browns after we had finished eating our meal and even then we had to ask more than once. Absolutely will not dine there again unless we can get a different server.

We came to NOLA for the weekend, and after riding the trolley for 45 minutes without a destination, we got off for brunch at The Trolley Stop Cafe. In short, the food was great. I had the Banana Split Belgian Waffle, pictured. It was so good, though I was worried about being type 2 diabetic after eating it! My wife and kids had eggs, pancakes, bacon, etc., all very good. Katt did a great job serving us. Decor and ambiance were nice, too, much more of a nice place to stop than just for a late breakfast. Well worth a visit.

Great diner spot. Got the pork chops and eggs and they were fantastic. The only down thing about this place was the fountain soda they ratio is way off lots of water and less syrup. We had and very nice and caring waitress.

The food was amazing. No cocktail sauce for my shrimp, which made me sad but the the food made up for it. Very big shrimp and the catfish just melted in my mouth. I will be back. Very nice staff and nice relaxed atmosphere. Street car takes you right out front.

Most of the wait staff had called in the morning we were there. July 4th. The 2 ladies working did an amazing job considering. Food was ok. Greasy spoon where all the food had the same flavor. Grease. Wouldve been good after a night in the French Quarter.

Was excited to try after all we had heard about it and saw it on 24 hours to hell and back.Service was decent and friendly. Food however was lacking. I had brioche French toast (which did not look or taste like it) with scrambled eggs, bacon and hashbrowns. Hashbrowns were spicey and mushy except giant potato chunk, eggs were cold and bacon over done. My tiny human had French fries and they were good. Boyfriend haf eggs Benedict sauce bland muffin was chewy.

The Trolley Stop Cafe used to be one of my favorite breakfast spots in New Orleans, until we discovered the nearby Silver Whistle Café. The positives are great prices, decent selection, and genuine, friendly service from experienced waitresses. It is frequented by both locals and tourists, alike. You won’t leave hungry, but it is more of a greasy spoon than fine dining.

Probably the best part was convenient parking. The fried potatoes were very good. Eggs cooked as requested and the grits were creamy and buttery but the link sausage was dry and almost tasteless. Butter patties served cold (AKA hard) and syrup served cold. Coffee was ok. Price was excellent so the value is good.

The server described the corned beef hash as made with shredded corned beef so this is what I ordered. It was basic, canned corned eef hash. The coffee was Luke warm at best. Our server wasnt very attentive. This place came highly recommended so needless to say, I was disappointed

I would not recommend the Trolley stop ever. I had the Red beans and rice. the rice was a pinkish. and the Beans was so SALTY. IF I HAD BLOOD PRESSURE PROBLEMS IT WOULD BE BECAUSE OF THE RED BEANS. THE SMOKE SAUSAGE WAS SPOILED. JUST HORRIBLE

This place...absolutely AMAZING! THE ambiance is very classy and displays pictures of the RTA or the local transit. They play non-offensive music. You can see people jiving to the music. You can tell its a pillar of the community. The food is great, especially the hash browns. If you ever visit New Orleans, the is a must visit! I will be back!

Although we never got to try the food, I wouldnt return just from how we were treated when we went this time. We waited for more than 5 minutes without anyone acknowledging we were there. When someone finally di, it was the same person that had walked by multiple times without saying anything. He was very rude, asked how many (there were 6 of us) and then ordered us outside. There was another couple there that had the same experience. They wanted to sit at the bar and he just said outside. Needless to say we left and went somewhere else and so did they.

Can I just say this place looks like it could be a hole in the wall but its the absolute cutest spot ever. Excellent service and amazing food. Ms. Dana is the best. Her hospitality was amazing, so much that we came back a second day😀! Thank you for making our stay in New Orleans as great as it was. We will back again.

Website says closes at 3. We walked in ar 1:15 to be yelled at they were no longer seating people. Not politely told yelled at with a horrible attitude. I tried to ask what else is in the area and the door was slammed in my face. If this is an indication of the service, they can keep everything about the place. From the 3 seconds I was in the building before the door was slammed on me it didnt smell clean anyhow.

Tasty breakfast, casual homey feel, and friendly service. Sometimes you dont need the frills, just straight forward homestyle food in a welcoming space. Best part is, for under $20 I can feed myself and my daughter, and give about an 18% tip. You cant beat when youre on a budget.

Ive never been here before but as a business owner myself I do have to say the owners of this company handle customer feedback and criticism perfectly and put the customer first. Just reading the owners responses to review shows that they are committed to making there patrons content. I hope this business is succeeding during these hard times in 2020. Great job you guys keep up the good work. I will be stopping in if Im ever down there.

So, I dont really know what to say except to just say it. Have been in NOLA for a couple days now and have been told by a few locals to try this cafe which we did this morning. We were later in morning, almost lunch time so perhaps their breakfast items were dwindling although I believe their menu states breakfast all day. Both my husband and I ordered Eggs Benedict with grits. The presentation of this breakfast plate was very unappealing. Even the waitress appeared to look at me as if to say sorry upon service. Everything tasted extra salty and the grits were more like a scoop of mashed potatoes. The barely cooked eggs were plopped on an English muffin with a miniscule (and I mean miniscule) amount of gravy. We were just hungry enough to eat being it was almost noon but I cannot say I would ever try this restaurant again. I hope for other patrons that lunch and dinner items are much, much better. The only good thing was my cup of coffee tasted good. I almost felt it was some joke to play on the out of towners, to be honest... considering the recommendations we had received before that. Picture speaks for itself. 2 stars for good coffee and pretty attentive and consistent service for beverage refills.

Update: in response to the owners answer to my review; How can you be so concerned about our experience when it was before Thanksgiving 2020 and you are just responding the end of February 2021? I dont believe that you are truly concerned at all or you would pay closer attention to your business and not take 3 months to notice a problem.Food was just so-so and the waitress was a bit unprofessional and rude. The coffee was not good. Only had one kind of creamer (half n half) and waitress got an attitude when I asked for French Vanilla or Hazlenut creamer. Must be a sore subject. To top it all off, the bill for 3 breakfasts was $70. Ridiculous. Will never go again. This is a bar pretending to be a restaurant.

This place has been a home away from home for decades. Despite hurricanes, floods, and the ravages of time, the food and service never change. The fare is simple, diner style offerings, with a smattering of creole staples. If youre nice to the servers, they will entertain you with a chat, especially later at night.
