Cold beer and chicken wings return to historic streetcar at Trolley Square

Salt Lake City’s Trolley Wing Co. will once again serve cold beer and chicken wings from its namesake streetcar at Trolley Square.

“I never stopped hoping this would happen,” owner Jess Wilkerson said. “I’m so excited to bring it back.”

The original Trolley Wing Co. was evicted in 2010 by the mall’s previous owners. And the historic rail car was moved to the nearby parking lot on 600 South and wrapped in plastic, all to to make way for a multimillion-dollar renovation.

The trolley sat in the lot until last October, when SK Hart Properties — which acquired the square in 2012 — returned the century-old streetcar to its place outside the Salt Lake City shopping center on 700 East between 500 South and 600 South.
