This is a great place on the corner of liberty st in Cincinnati. It has great fresh food. Highly recommend stopping by to grab a bite to eat. The menu has a variety of different foods and they have breakfast as well. Prices are very reasonable, well worth the price.

Ollies Trolley Cincinnati offers a commendable lunch experience, focusing on well-executed, fresh fare. The hamburger, prepared from scratch, delivers on flavor and quality, embodying the essence of a classic local diner. However, the true standout of the meal was the seasoned fries, which were perfectly cooked and expertly spiced, easily justifying their reputation.

Service was a notable strong point, characterized by its efficiency and affability, contributing positively to the overall dining atmosphere. While the ambiance maintains a distinct local charm, it’s the consistent food quality and excellent service that truly define the visit.

Prospective diners should note that parking in the vicinity can be difficult, and a typical wait of 15 minutes is common, particularly for lunch. Despite these minor logistical challenges, the culinary payoff makes it a worthwhile destination, and I certainly plan to return.

Really good food at a great price. It’s right across from TQL Stadium, but on the Liberty Street side. You can get breakfast, lunch, dinner 8am-2:30pm.

I got the fried catfish sandwich meal with coleslaw and greens for only $10. The only seasoning I added was hot sauce for the collards. So good.

A little late in posting, but my meal here a couple of weeks ago wasn’t just a good lunch, but a wonderful experience including meeting Marvin, the owner, who has led a storied life. He even serenaded my friend and I with the Ollie’s jingle. This meal was the last leg in the triple crown of eating at all of the Ollie’s trolleys in the United States: Louisville, Washington DC, and finally Cincinnati. And, I saved the best for last. Arguably the most extensive menu, and the best atmosphere, but only outdoor seating so you’d have to do takeout in the winter.

The Ollie Burger here was absolutely the best, but I do have to give props to the Louisville Ollie’s for their french fries which are my favorite seasoned shoestring french fries. The fries in Cincy are also very good they’re just the thicker crinkle cut fries— same great Ollie’s Seasoning. They also do catering and deep fry turkeys to order around the holidays. I will definitely be back!

Note: even though the hours say they close at 2:30, they often stay open later on days when there are soccer games.

Very good portions and great meal deals. I will return and try the bbq sometime.
The meatloaf was served as a sandwich, which was fine. I would request it without the bun on my next visit when craving the same dinner.
My sides were fried corn, which tasted great, fried Okra, mac and cheese, which were also good too.

I’ve been coming here for 50+ years. The best $5 cup of goodness, you’ll find. Grits, potatoes, eggs, and choice of protein. I had turkey bacon.

This is a great find here in Cincinnati, OHIO. Even President Obama and First Lady couldn’t resist trying it out.
The food is delicious, has large portions, and is very reasonable priced too.
As you can see from all the pictures, it is unique, one of a kind that is for sure. I would highly recommend this restaurant they are open 9am to 5pm.
Do not come to this area after dark; the location is in a rough area.
