About Trail Stop Brewery
Trail Stop Brewery is a brewpub in southwest Columbia that puts beer, pizza and pickleball in one place. Its website says it sits south of Hinkson Creek, a quick walk over the bridge from the MKT Trail and the Jay Dix Station trailhead.
The website says the beer is made fresh on site, guided by an internationally renowned brew master. The kitchen cooks pizza in a wood fired oven. The menu lists Neapolitan style pies, a Chicago deep dish and a gluten free cauliflower crust, plus wings, sliders, salads and sandwiches.
Pickleball is a big part of the pitch. The site says newcomers without paddles are covered, because the brewery has what you need to play. Families are welcome too, and the menu has a kids section.
Two local doctors, Bill and Bob, started the place as a spot for friends and family to gather. The website also offers the space for birthdays, team lunches and other large gatherings.
