THIS month saw the opening of The Parlour, a new and welcome addition to Limerick’s late night social scene.
Situated at the heart of the city on Thomas Street, this quirky bar with its 1800s style interior and buzzing atmosphere is “fast becoming popular among the city’s young and hip”, according to the folks at the city centre venue. The place is truly full of surprises with funky coloured wallpaper, an abundance of antiques and lounge-type mismatched seating which even includes two adapted four poster beds.
The Parlour’s music style is as versatile as the décor with an eclectic mix of alternative funk, house and eighties’ electronica, keeping the floors filled until the small hours.
The extensive drinks menu offers a long list of incredible tasting ‘proper cocktails’, a vast range of craft beers and 10 wines by the glass.
A small yet perfect pub menu includes a selection of gourmet toasted sandwiches and cheeseboard along with a few sweeter treats such as macaroons. Table service is available when things aren’t so hectic, an added benefit of choosing to lounge in this bar’s atmosphere.
Limerick Post has been informed that everything about The Parlour screams fun, with its decadent yet funky feel making one’s night seem almost timeless.
Located next door to Paddy Frawley’s pub, it’s sure to be the city’s happening spot this Christmas.
