What User likes about The Parlour:
amazing bar with great atmosphere and live music at the weekend. eating is fantastic with a classic menu. bar was built in the late 17 hundred that make the decor historical and outstanding View all feedback. What Moyra W doesn't like about The Parlour:
We went for dinner on Sunday evening and I can honestly say it was the worst I've ever had! Steak inedible, no cutlery and staff dressed as if they were leaving bins out! Place has gone to the dogs. Didn't complain, just won't be back !! View all feedback.

5 of us went here for my brothers birthday we had a lovely time. The fire was great to see and feel the heat. We will most definitely visit here again soon.

The restaurant received mixed reviews from customers. While some found the food to be subpar and the service lacking, others raved about the delicious meals and friendly staff. The historical atmosphere of the bar, combined with live music on weekends, added to the overall experience. Despite some hiccups in the kitchen, the attentive service and cozy ambiance left a positive impression on many diners. Overall, with its classic menu and charming decor, the restaurant seems to be a hit or miss depending on the individual experience.
