Trolley Car Cafe makes its debut

POSTED: Friday, June 11, 2010, 10:32 PM

Filed Under: Openings

Trolley Car CafÃ©, the Kelly Drive offshoot of Mt. Airy's Trolley Car Diner, has opened for business, only slightly missing the spring opening that owner Ken Weinstein targeted back in November. Located in East Falls in the historic Bathey House at 3269 South Ferry Road (intersection of Ferry and Kelly), the CafÃ© serves breakfast, lunch and dinner seven days a week; hours are 7 a.m. to 10 p.m. Green features of the cafÃ© include passive solar lighting and a solar-powered water-heating system that handles 70 percent of the restaurant's hot-water needs; they've also got a "kitchen garden" growing vegetables and herbs used in food prep. UPDATE [14jun10]: Added the CafÃ©'s menu after the jump.
