After grabbing an appetizer downtown, I chose to use another Groupon
for the Red Trolley known for their ice cream and gelato. I immediately found a parallel-parking spot right outside the place, so there were no problems there. There were chairs if you desired to eat outside, which was a plus for me. I walked in and was pleased from the very start. The atmosphere was quiet and comforting. Lights weren’t too bright and the windows provided just the right amount of brightness. The staff was incredibly friendly and knew their products well. The young man detailed and contrasted all the highlights about the gelato and ice cream: He knew it was a first time experience for me…impressive! He also explained the reason for the out-of-place, portable freezer with the gelato was because the original freezer wasn’t working properly. As a result, all the frozen treats were half-priced. Wow! I definitely like when a place tries to accommodate and please their customers to the max. They allow you to taste-test all the ice cream and gelato and offer coffee as well. I tasted most of the gelato and the half-baked ice cream and loved them all. I still can’t make up my mind, but the lemon gelato was my favorite at that moment mostly because it was such a hot day, and it tasted incredibly refreshing. The young man also suggested we try their breakfast or lunch sometime. I scoped their menu written on a black chalkboard along the main entrance wall, and I intend to revisit for both breakfast and lunch sometime. The Red Trolley is a wonderful place to get out for a little and bring friends to sit and chat. I give this place a full five out of five stars.
