Marketplace Grille in the Boat Yard Trolley

Had some great food here the other day with good comedy behind the shelf. This is a straight up train car with outdoor seating, but it'll be alright if you show in weird weather. There are closed for a large portion of the winter and spring months, but in the summer and fall, y'all should go ahead and check in. Good space.

What better place to enjoy a midday meal than a picnic table at The Trolly within a stone’s throw of the water. Ordering is like shooting the breeze with a friend with a friend. All cooked to order and worth however many minutes it takes. The chowder is creamy with nice chunks of clams, the fried coconut shrimp is so tasty with a sweet chili sauce. Man, it is a picnic! Get on down there and enjoy some fresh air food!

We really enjoyed our trip to Gig Harbor. We were a bit surprised that the Marketplace Grill was an old train Trolley and not an indoor restaurant. Not a big deal. We still enjoyed ourselves and really like dining there.

Absolutely LOVED the service and the atmosphere was great. The food is DELICIOUS. MUST HAVE. I ordered the crab cakes and the mango salsa was so delicious. Pictured is the prawn salad and it is highly recommended (for good reason). The two sauces that come with it are delicious and super flavorful on their own but together they're amazing. This is a family owned business so please take care of the staff and they will take care of you!

Food and service were 5 star. Generous portion size, flavorful food. The paella had an excellent Caribbean twist and the jerk chicken was spiced just right! Carlene (owner) is super friendly.
