My first night back at The Parlour since the pandemic hit, everything was AMAZING! The staff were all great and they were following all the protocols to keep everyone as safe as possible. Really great food as well-LOVE the new pizza by Bobby's Bar Pizza! Great place for live music too!

One of my favorite places to see live music in Providence! And Karaoke Fridays are legendary! Another reviewer commented on the neighborhood being sketch, but I have been coming here since they opened & I have never had anything happen to me or my car, I have never even seen a fight. The patrons are a mix of neighborhood locals, college students, rockers of all ages& flavors, hell one night I even saw Vinnie Pazienza(sp?) For a long time (pre-pandemic ) there was a sign on the door that says "All are welcome here" and they mean it - the staff are all friendly & good at their jobs. They have an excellent beer selection including the basics as well as local /craft brews & their pizza menu is top notch! If you find yourself on North Main in PVD near the old Benny's(RIP) stop in and soak up some warm fuzzies wrapped in a thick layer of dive bar charm. I mean - it's RI, so even if you aren't in the neighborhood just drive the 20 minutes!

LOVE this place!! We try to come as often as we can for open mic night, always a fun time! Everyone always puts in their all and the performances are genuine as hell. Amanda at the bar is super cool! Always polite and quick with our next round. Drinks are pretty cheap too! Chris, the host of open mic, is entertaining and lively. He always keeps the night going with his humor and vast musical talent. Jim was in the kitchen tonight making DELICIOUS quesadillas. Mine in particular had beets and bacon in it, an unexpected perfect duo. I hope Jim continues to make delicious treats for everyone continuing forward!! Brian, the sound guy, does a great job! We can always hear everyone and he has good taste in music in between acts. All in all, great place and great people! Although it might be a bit intimidating for your first time here, everyone is family and you're right at home.

So just randomly stopped by this place. It ended up being a night that a band is playing and they were charging 7 bucks at the door as cover I later looked online and it says 5 at the door... not sure if that's a mistake but it was a-little strange... ended up talking to the bouncer and asked him if we could just go in for a quick drink before the band and he let us in free!! Hipster type spot, cool place for a drink and to see live bands definitely check the website for cover charge and to see who is playing ahead of time. Wouldn't eat here so don't come here hungry lol but cool for a drink and to listen to live music. They also have a few old school arcade games if your interested in that. Overall, come here if you want to kick back a few beers hang with friends and listen to pretty cool music!
