What Gary S likes about Parlour Wine Room:
Went on a Thursday for family wedding. Food was excellent, kitchen and wait staff did a fantastic job. Chef/cooks thankyou!!! Bar staff and manager all professional, fast and friendly. Venue not too big or too small, great atmosphere for around 100 people. Would recommend for a family gathering. View all feedback. What Ruth W doesn't like about Parlour Wine Room:
Arrived with special guests for a pre booked luncheon to find the restaurant closed. Hunted a staff member down who said there was trouble with the kitchen mind letting your booked customers know? I had not been contacted by anyone at Parlour to let me know which was extremely embarrassing for me and my guests. View all feedback.

Does it really take that long to make a martini? Is it ready so hard to make a dry martini? Is it unreasonable to request that the olives are pitted? Tip: If y...

A visit to Parlour restaurant can be hit or miss, as evidenced by a mix of reviews. One diner expressed disappointment after experiencing poor communication regarding a closure, delays in service, and a lack of direction for staff. Another reviewer was frustrated by slow service and rude waitstaff, with subpar food offerings adding to the displeasure of the visit. However, there were also positive experiences shared, such as a romantic atmosphere, good tapas menu, and excellent service during a family gathering. The venue was praised for its ambience, food quality, and attentive servers, despite some inconveniences like a chilly restroom in winter. Overall, the restaurant received a range of feedback spanning from disheartening to exceptional, highlighting both areas for improvement and moments of enjoyment for guests.
