Upper West Side- The Parlour Pub

Posted on 18:06 by Unknown
Talk about covered with scaffolding! Big sign on outside of scaffold though which you can see from across the street..

Looks like a jovial Irish pub

Let us check reviews--mixed, but definitely on the good side

    This was my first stop on Monday after my company softball game prior to hitting The Gin Mill.  We sat downstairs and had a few pitchers then headed over to The Mill.

    I'm giving this an extra star simply for the fact that I used to hit this place to watch Glasgow Celtic games a number of years ago and have fond memories of the place.  In fact, one hazy St Paddy's Day, my cousin from Scotland and his mates and me all headed over to The Parlour for a 10am game followed by the usual St Paddy's Days madness.  Don't really remember the result of the game.

    The Guinness is poured correctly and served at the right temp.  The crowd is a good mix of young and old with the usual off the boat Irish guys and gals behind the bar.  Plus, definitely had more local feel than the bars over on Amsterdam.

    I do believe they still show Glasgow Celtic games there and I'll have to head back one morning to catch one.

    I guess they serve food, never went there to eat, just drink..

    Wanna know how my last visit went?

    July 4th me and my girl along with our friend and her date after we walked all over central park. my friends date wanted the parlour burger

    don't do it.....please don't get it.....he ordered it ....now he is in for it

    he took a bite into it and he didn't like it & hot sauce and ketchup didn't help either and he called it the worst burger he ever had and even salt and pepper didn't work either

    if you think that was bad......how about some chicken wings? i had some mild wings and well it was not to my liking....it was god awful.

    That did it

    I had enough

    One of my favorite bars on the UWS! The food is good :)! I like to order a sandwich with a side salad when I go. My kick ball team had our after game drinks here and we were always greeted with a big smile. We headed down stairs where there is a large space to play beer games with large groups! one thing that was i shocked when i first went there was HOW GOOD THE MUSIC IS! They place a mix of it all... hip hop, top 40, pop, reggae, etc. Bartenders are very friendly and attentive. I can't wait to go back with my friends! Pitchers for beer pong are $12 dollars (i believe it was Miller).

    Came here for dinner on a snowy night last week.

    The pros: lots of bar space, friendly staff, great prices, food was solid --- perfectly good for the price and big portions. My husband had the $10 burger w/fries--- I got the nachos - veggie nachos --- it was  HUGE portion --- and only $10 or $11. There is happy hour until 7 pm which is also nice.

    The cons: our waitress was too busy and was hard to track down. she seemed to be the only one working that day.
    another con is that part of the reason we had come was to experience the beer pong and game area downstairs but apparently that's not open all the time.

    This is a no frills place.

    I'll be back for a casual cheap meal and a beer.

    This place looked cool, and I probably went on the wrong day, but there was a huge birthday party going on for a 16 y.o. downstairs. It was VERY loud, so I only stayed till my friend got there, then we bailed. Too bad because it's a good location. They have a pool table, but it's small.

    Officially my established "go to" bar.

    It's a spacious Irish pub with a jukebox, pool table, darts, beer pong (downstairs), and karaoke on selected nights.

    The bartenders are mad cool, the drinks are reasonably priced and just an overall good vibe here. I've eaten here once or twice, but the food isn't something to write home/Yelp about. It's bar food that will pad your stomach if needed.

    Highly recommended.
    GO NOW.

    The Parlour Irish Pub is a great low-key place for drinks. Amazing bar menu...No lights & no view of TVs in VIP area - what da hell?!!

    The waitress service was horrible though. We had to flag her down a couple of times for attention. Also, the waitress and manager gave an attitude to my group of friends. We just wanted to get our order and drinks. Luckily, the drinks are strong and their burgers were delicious.

    A fun place to play darts and grab a beer.  The TV is awkwardly placed in front of the dart board area in a way that isn't ideal, but it's doable.  The bartenders are pretty nice.  The place is incredibly spacious, especially for an Irish bar.  Apparently they have beer pong downstairs, which I must try next time out, and a happy hour special.

    I liked this bar because of the duality it offers guests.  The upstairs is more chill, loungey, almost like a cigar bar, and the downstairs can get just downright college party-y.  We had mad beer pong tables a few weekends ago that was just outstanding.  Super happy to have stumbled upon this spot.  The bartenders are very cool and pitchers for beer pong are reasonable at around $10.

    Need to post a quick "thumbs-up" for the special last night. The pesto pasta with shrimp was excellent, and as always service and atmosphere was great. Thanks to Courtney, Owen and the crew.
