It’s been years since I’ve eaten here. It was the perfect spot for my dad’s birthday lunch! The food was excellent and we received great service from our waitress. I was a little disappointed with my mojito but outside of that everything was great!!

Go to spot for drinks and breakfast. The burgers are also delicious. There is street parking and a small parking lot. Depending on the time of day it was be very crowded. Prices are fair for the area. Staff is always friendly and bathrooms are clean. They offer bar, dinning and outdoor seating.

02/20/2026 Update: I’ve been here several times recently. Friday was to celebrate a friend’s birthday. I had a cheesesteak that was out of this world. Desert was the peanut butter cup sundae and it was excellent also. Service was great, despite the fact that they were jam packed.

Went here with a friend. I hadn’t been to this location for years. It was fun. The food was excellent, our waitress did a great job, and dining in their outside section during nice weather was an excellent touch. I have to say, I enjoyed this one a bit more than the Branmar location because of the outdoor dining.

First time visiting Kid Shelleen’s – Trolley Square for brunch. Overall, it was a good experience.

Fast service, decent food, and the restaurant has a nice, open atmosphere with stylish decor.

Overall Ratings:

Restaurant: 4/5
Service: 4/5
Food: 3/5
Parking: Street & private lot available

Atmosphere:

The main dining room is spacious and open, which I really liked. There’s also outdoor seating available for warmer days. The place was clean and well-kept overall.

Service:

Our waitress was prompt, friendly, and professional. No complaints here.

What We Ordered:

-Egg Chesapeake – Great flavor! The crab cakes were a nice touch. The home fries were a standout—crispy on the outside, soft and fluffy inside.
-Breakfast Burrito – Not bad, pretty solid, though nothing extraordinary.

One thing I really loved is, both meals came with homemade cinnamon buns—light, airy, and delicious. Such a nice surprise!

Final Thoughts:

The brunch menu felt a bit limited, but what we tried was decent. I’d consider coming back, especially if they rotate in some seasonal brunch items or expand the offerings a bit.

Has a relaxed atmosphere tucked in a local neighbourhood beside some nice greenery and a train. Perfect patio vibes, and inside has a cool bar feel with wood tabletops and warm lighting.

Food was great, everything was fresh and tasty. Got a order of wings in a sweet chili chipotle bbq sauce and a charcoal grilled burger with coleslaw. Wings were a bit pricey but they were big and meaty with good crispy skin, so you feel like you get your moneys worth. Sauce was sweet and tangy, a perfect accompaniment.
Burger was cooked perfectly and had great smokey flavour and the bun was nicely toasted. Veggies and slaw were both fresh with good crunch.

Service was great too, the staff was friendly always available, checked on me often.

Overall very satisfied. If you want a family friendly joint with good food and a relaxed neighbourhood vibe, defintely visit.

Great lunch with friends. Ten of us got together for Christmas lunch. We got there early and had no problem seating us. Our server (I don’t remember her name) was terrific. She was attentive and accommodating. Food was delicious and came out after just a short wait. This is our 3rd year meeting at Kid Shelleen’s and we will go back.

Really great food! Got the cajun fries, salmon and the steak frites. Spritzs were good too. Portions were not too big but left you satisfied and were cooked to perfection! They have an open flame kitchen and the service was great. I did see burgers coming off the grill and they are huge and looked really good. Large inside with a classic dark pub vibe. Definitely check it out when visiting Trolley!

I was here a while back and me and my cousins had amazing food and service. I think one of my cousins had the cowboy burger cause he loved bbq and rodeos. My other cousin had the chicken cheesesteak which I ate half of the next day. Place is awesome for games. Such a totally awesome place in trolley square which is always walkable and nice any time of year!!!!
