Party Bike Experience

It’s a pedal-powered portable bar on wheels, with a certified Trolley Pub conductor in the captain’s seat. Perfect for pub crawls, birthday celebrations, bachelor/bachelorette parties, company outings, brewery tours, sightseeing, themed nights out- the possibilities are endless! A minimum of 6 pedalers is necessary to power the Trolley Pub.

For an adventure tailored to your tastes, our drivers—your personal party hosts—are experts at reading the vibe of your group. They’ll chat with you at the beginning of your tour to suggest stops that align with your interests. Our trolleys can safely take you almost anywhere you wish to explore within our route areas. While most groups opt for 2 stops, staying about 15-20 minutes at each, where we go is really up to you, guided by your preferences and our hosts’ local expertise. No need to lock in your choices before the tour; flexibility is part of the fun! For a sneak peek at potential destinations, feel free to explore our route options and stops on our Routes page.

It’s not too bad! We have had groups of all 70+ seniors pedal just fine. If they can do it, you can do it!!!

Trolley Pub operates rain or shine! If its going to rain, we recommend bringing rain jackets and/or ponchos. It’s still a lot of fun- think of it as an adventure. We only cancel tours if there are unsafe conditions.

All tours start and stop at Home Room. 555 W Washington Ave Madison, WI 53703.

If the schedule, party host, & weather are permitting you can discuss further extending your trip while underway. We can charge the card on file used to make the original reservation.

Sure! We recommend keeping it simple. Easy snack food, some pub-subs etc. We wouldn’t encourage anything elaborate. We are a fun, exciting Party Bike pub crawl, not a fine dining establishment. At some of the bar stops you can always grab a quick snack – just make sure to be back at the bike at the time your party host set!

You may, but you have to follow the rules. No glass or liquor (even if the glass only stays in the ice chest). All alcohol is BYOB, and alcoholic beverages must remain on board at all times during the tour. We provide the ice chests as well as ice. You are also free to bring food on board. Use common sense, you can’t drink on the street. Do not get overly intoxicated or you will be kicked off. Do not show up to a Trolley Pub tour intoxicated or you will not be let on board.

It varies by location, but Madison trolleys can fit up to 14 riders. Have more than 14? Our fleet of Trolleys is for your big birthday party, team building event, or wedding!
