    Had an amazing experience at The Parlour Room! It was my girlfriend’s birthday and the staff made sure it was special. They printed out a custom birthday menu with her name on it and sat us in the Library Room, which is the room I really wanted! Also, my girlfriend has celiac and the staff made sure to point out which foods were gluten free and which can be substituted so she can enjoy the meal. I can’t express how incredible the experience was for my girlfriend and I and want to thank the staff for making her birthday special!
