My friends and I went to visit here for our monthly restaurant night and it just happened to be a very snowy night. There was only one guy waiting tables and working the bar and he did such a great job on such a snowy night. We started with some apps; the French onion dip with homemade chips, loaded fries and Brussel sprouts. Those were all tasty and I enjoyed the homemade cheese dip that was on the fries and wanted to eat it with a spoon. We then each got a burger; funny is that we all chose a different one. We like to stay and chat and catch up about what has happened since last month so we decided to order dessert. My two friends each got a slice of pie and I only wanted a bite of my sisters pie and made a joke that I only wanted a bite and the waiter over heard me and he actually brought me a small slice on the house; he was so nice and I wasn't expecting that at all. It was such a nice booth that we were in and the restaurant wasn't very busy so we pretty much had the whole place to ourselves. I could sit there for hours and just chat and relax. I can't wait to go back and try more food next time. read more

Living in the cities for over two decades, I think I've heard the most about this burger. I had high expectations, but left felling... meh? The service was friendly, but frankly slow. It was hard getting drinks or refills. They were out of sausage and turkey for their breakfast items, but willingly made adjustments to their dishes for free. Three of us got the burgers in our group and only one of us thought the burger lived up to its reputation. Apparently I'm a burger snob now. I still don't think I'll find one better than Saint Dinette. (RIP ) read more

Had Brunch with my parents, partner and a friend! First time here! The service was good, but our server was also tending bar, for a fairly busy Sunday brunch time, so he was attentive but could have been more, although we weren't in a rush we enjoyed the sunshine coming through the large street-front windows. We had the Eggs Benedict- A good take on a classic they were out of the ham but we were able to sub pork belly. Very good and a nice size portion! Southwest Scramble - the Smoked Brisket was tender, the blend of Roasted Red Pepper, Onion, Cheesy Scrambled Eggs, Serrano Crema and Home Fries, also very good. Not pictured- Parlour Burger (x3) with fried onions on the side and bowl of Fries (plenty to share with a table), tried both the Swiss and Dill Aioli! Very good! Burgers came out still hot and fresh! Will definitely be coming back to try other brunch or lunch options. Allow extra time for parking as it is located with street or ramp parking near by. They do also take Reservations, which is always good. read more

Cool vibes, great service and delicious food. The fries were 10/10, the side of aioli was good but probably could have gone without and the parlor burger was perfect! read more

We came here to sit at the bar, and have a couple drinks and snacks, and had a great time. The drinks were so delicious, my husband and I had 2 cocktails each and all were really well balanced and went great with food! Our bartender came over and actually made a new drink for my husband without asking, because he felt that the first drink wasn't perfectly up to standard - amazing service, and a testament to their cocktail craft! The food was good as well, we got the burger to share and some snacks, but the cocktails were the true standouts here. We sat in the bar area and while we didn't bring our baby, there was another child having dinner with their parents, so seems like it could be family friendly as well! Overall, great spot for drinks and fantastic service, definitely check them out! read more

I had a reservation for dinner before going to see Lady Gaga at GCA I was seated at the bar since I was alone and could then be seated for longer than an hour.

Nice space with exposed brick walls and copper ceilings--tons of character, though a little pricey on the side. Do you like meat? The chicken-fried steak came with meat grits; it was good, but I would highly suggest getting a side of starch or something to offset it. The Parlour Burger (is overpriced at $18) IS good--the cheese between the two patties makes a difference. The avocado toast was fine, although the $9 salmon addition was too much. The fries are not bad; dip them in the aïoli to take it up a notch. Service was good, the staff is nice, and the men's bathroom is a must-see (see pics). read more

Parlour Bar in St. Paul was absolutely amazing from start to finish. The service was friendly and attentive, and you'll be thinking about the food for days afterward. Our party of four started with two appetizers, the whipped goat cheese and the cauliflower. Both were great, but the cauliflower really stood out. The peppers gave it a nice kick. Now for the main event, the Parlour Burger. This is an absolute must order and truly one of the best burgers I've ever had. Loved everything about this experience. My friends and I had a fantastic dinner, and I can't wait to return. read more

I had only ever been to the location in north loop, but St. Paul had all the same classics! The Parlour burger is truly one of my favorite burgers - simple but perfectly cheesy and flavorful! All of the other dishes were equally amazing. I was especially surprised by the banana bread dessert. I wasn't expecting much but this was so yummy with each piece having crisp, almost caramelized edges. As per usual with St. Paul, there is only street parking or there is a valet option. We didn't know before, but this is actually free if you are eating at the restaurant and can show your receipt! read more

St Paul has been my favorite Parlour location. Cool vibe and good food! Fav food: Parlour Burger, Mushroom Burger, Brussel Sprouts, Chicken Wild Rice Pot Pie and Beef Stroganoff Has 4 different sections with different vibes. First: Restaurant seating Second: Diner feel Third: Booths/ Restaurant Fourth: Bar and seating The third and fourth sections are the coolest but pretty small so make sure you make reservations in advance. Open: Monday- Sunday (hours vary) and Happy Hour: Daily 4-6pm but not on event nights They offer take out and delivery, private events, Cocktail classes By Excel Energy Center (Grand Casino Arena) on West 7th St Parking: Metered street parking or ramps nearby - can get busy so plan on walking if it's a weekend or an event day read more

I got the brisket sandwich, and it was good! The Brussel sprouts were also pretty good-- and my old fashioned was strong, and tasty. I think what disappointed me was the limited menu. I am all in favor of smaller menus, but this felt just a little too small... and maybe they're more known for cocktails. I was in town for work, and brought some work colleagues here. It was a nice casual atmosphere. And if I'm back in town, I might go back. But it wasn't so amazing that I'd say, "I have to go back." Oh, and the other thing that was frustrating was the service. The drinks took too long to come out. The food was prompt. But then the check too waaayyy to long. read more

Parlour Bar St. Paul - Outside - New American Near Me - Saint Paul, Minnesota

Came right at opening and it was very quiet and I was dining alone. If you're dining alone, I suggest bringing a book or headphones unless you're big into jazz, which was fine for me. I got an iced tea, a bourbon bacon burger (with gluten free bun), and a side order of fries. The tea and fries were great. The bacon on the burger was very hard to the point I was afraid of chipping a tooth, but the rest of the burger sans bacon was amazing, messy but amazing. For any gluten free friends, the bun was okay, but not the best but it was lovely to have the option. I do wish the meal came with a side as there were so many fries in the side order and felt a bit of a waste. My server, Will, was the bar tender for the back bar and was polite. He did was setting up for the night so he wasn't around a lot but when I needed anything, more water or boxes and the check, he was on it. read more

Went to the parlour late on a Saturday afternoon. We were shocked to see that it wasn't very busy maybe because nothing was going on at the Xcel Arena. Wanted to try some of their fancy cocktails. I didn't realize the size of the parlour till we walked in and stated we wanted to sit at the bar and was taken through a series of different store front and each room has its own motif. We were taken to the last room (4th 1st level store front) to this enormous bar. What we ordered: we order the happy hour deviled eggs which were the best deviled eggs I've ever had. The happy hour version has 2 on a plate for $5 so if you are hungry...you might want to order 2. I also ordered 2 different drinks: Too Much Heaven (tiki-esque drink) which was delish with what I call hospital ice. Small balls of ice. Then I ordered the Graupel - gin based cocktail in a low ball with "hospital" ice. The 2 drinks were very different from one another but both delish in their own way. The Graupel was very fragrant and floral while Too Much Heaven was tiki vibes and taking you away to a tropical destination. Negatives: the drinks are EXPENSIVE! Each one was roughly around $15 a piece. Service was great and the bartenders were friendly and courteous. Though the bartenders insisted we come back for their burger..so it's on our next to do list. Cheers! read more

Had a 12pm Sunday lunch reservation for a party of 5 and was excited to finally try this spot. I'd say it's been on my list for over a year (mainly for the burger). The brunch menu had many tempting options, but I went with what brought me in here the Parlour Burger. I added grilled onions and our group shared a side of fries which is more than enough to split. The burger was a double patty and more than I could eat in one sitting, so I had dinner for later (winning!). It was good, but it didn't wow me completely like I had hoped. Service was slower than expected. Our server was also required to tend the bar, and although he was friendly and personable, he was honestly just stretched too thin. Managing the bar and multiple tables at once seems like just too much for one individual to handle during a very busy time, especially if you're supposed to be attentive. It felt like along time to receive service. He wasn't set up to succeed. Something to note, allow yourself time for parking as it's street or ramp parking only. The building is cool with all the brick and it was so nice with the sun shining in. I love how they take reservations. I'd come back and try something else off the brunch menu another time. read more

We had reservations for 4 in the main dining area. It was a Thursday at 4pm, not too busy but by the time we left it was!! The main dining room has Giant booths for groups of four and are awesome!!! I had the Carmel Apple rotating cider. It was incredible and on the happy hour menu! Three people at our table had this drink! The Bourbon Espresso martini was the happy hour cocktail of the day, it was very strong! The Spiced jungle bird cocktail was different than what I had expected, very interesting drink! we were told in the beginning that we had to be out by a certain time to accommodate another reservation, but our server and the host worked it out so we could continue chatting, ordering drinks and having a great time at our table! Sam was our server and she was very nice and accommodating. Our group was a little late or half of us were and our server was so nice and allowed us to order drinks and food slowly. read more

I love both Parlours. Both have great burgers and cocktails, the big difference being the size and feel of the place (North Loop is small and intimate while St. Paul is big and brighter.) The burgers here are still a ok the best in town if you like thin smash burgers. The buns are nicely grilled, the burger sort of crispy, the pickles bright and the cheese melty. The duck fat fries are amazing, ask for the aioli to make them even better. Beyond burgers there are bunch of other things including amazing cauliflower. I can't say enough about the drinks. The list is great and the bartenders are amazing at crafting something not on the menu that you will likely love. Go here. read more

From out of State to visit Family & friends. Not one to pop into a bar alone being a female to have a beverage. Brandy, the bartender was so welcoming and within 5 mins he made me feel comfortable and welcome sitting at the bar. He engaged in conversation with me and checked on me to make sure I was ok. My french 75 cocktail was THE BEST and I stayed and had two. The two men at the door were SO kind and deserve a shout out as well. Thank you Brandy & staff for making my time in Minnesota even better. I will be back. read more

The burgers are definitely smaller than they used to be so the bun ratio feels a little off. Fries and aioli are always a hit. Had some fun cocktails and enjoyed the service. Fair warning if you go before an event at Grand Casino Arena, mar a reservation :). read more

Here's a quick update to my 2020 review! We had dinner there last week, and guess what? The Parlour Burgers are still the best burger ever. Every time we visit this amazing restaurant-bar, we notice the burgers taste even better than before. Of course, they're always the best! From the friendly greetings as we walk in to the super quick and efficient service, every dining experience is just fantastic. I don't have the right words to say how much I love these creations. You absolutely have to try them! They're a flavor gift from the first bite to the last. The only thing is, we finish the burgers and then have to wait until our next visit. GREAT JOB Parlour! read more

Great food. Amazing banana bread. Servers were quick and helpful and the food was unique and delicious

Found ourselves with friends at Parlour tonight for restaurant week. Between the 4 of us we had all the items they were serving off their weeks menu. The deviled eggs delicious. You essentially get one full egg during restaurant week not really a shareable sized app, but really fricken tasty !!! The butter lettuce salad tangy with a champagne vinaigrette. My husband got the wild rice pot pie which was delicious pretty decent portion size. I loved their flaky top of a croissant I got the smash burger which is definitely a top burger in the twin cities! The bun was perfectly toasted. The burger had crispy edges and the sauce **chefs kiss** heads up doesn't come with a side of anything so we got a side of fries to share with the table. 4 of us were able to eat off of that with no issues. One of our friends got the falafel. Omg not a miss. Some places it's crazy dry, but not this one !!! Freaking delicious ! And the house made Taziki, olive tamponade. We are going back for this !!! We also got the chicken sandwich. It was good, nothing to make you want to write home about. All 4 of us had the same opinion on the sandwich. And most definitely get the dill and Swiss aioli you won't go wrong with either !!!! read more

We went on a Saturday around 1pm and it wasn't very busy, so we got seated immediately. Our server was fun and had some excellent recommendations. The bathroom floor was a little sticky but otherwise the restaurant was very clean. We tried several different things, but the items that stood out were the BLT with giant, juicy bacon strips and the crispy, buttery banana bread served with ice cream. I will absolutely go back here! read more

$20 burger was unbelievably dry with a texture like sand. One of the worst burgers I have ever had in a restaurant. Fries had to be ordered separately. Also, beer was served as a half-pint, but not advertised as such -- which in my mind is a pretty unforgivable move. If you're going to do that, just say so on the menu. One positive thing I would say is that the banana pie was pretty legit. read more

The restaurant had plenty of seating for brunch and I loved that in different areas of the restaurants there are different ambiances. I have always loved the Parlour Burger - of course, who doesn't! But wanted to try something new for brunch. I had the breakfast sandwich with bacon and the bacon was THICK! The sandwich was nicely cooked but I did ask for mayo to add to it since there wasn't a sauce on it. Another must have is the french fries and swiss aoli. (It's worth the extra charge) I was able to try 2 drinks, the espresso martini and the cocktail of the moment that had almond flavors. The best was the cocktail of the moment with its unique mix of flavors. read more

So sad that the salad was the best thing we had at a place known for their burgers! Service was extremely slow, in their defense they had a group of 20 come in unexpectedly. They charged us 12.00 for iceberg shaved lettuce, subpar tomatoes, and carmelizwd onions on an already overpriced burger. The server did not inform us of the up charges! Will likely not return! read more

I definitely enjoyed my experience at Parlour Bar. We went on a Saturday afternoon in the summer and were seated right away! They were even able to seat us right next to the window for a view outside. We didn't realize that everything was a La carte, but that was a good opportunity for us to share! I ordered the Brussel sprouts and was not expecting them to be super spicy! I'm a whimp when it comes to spice though but they were still tasty. The chicken sandwich was my favorite! So good! The fries were also very delicious. I would definitely recommend stopping in for some smaller dishes or appetizers! read more

Let's face it, the burger is amazing when it's executed properly. That said, I've been here ten times and only had one greasy one. The staff is friendly with a great bar atmosphere. A great place you can go last minute on a Friday night and still find a couple bar seats The cocktails are good! The rest of the food is kind of ho hum. I've tried quite a few things and nothing but the burger knocks my socks off. Yesterday I tried the southwest hash. It needed more salt and was too spicy for my taste buds, with too many onions and very little hash. The tiny $2 egg was rubber. I'll keep coming back for the atmosphere and that burger! read more

If you're going to an even at Xcel, definitely make a stop here for dinner! I had only been to the Minneapolis location, but I love how large and rustic this location is. It really felt like we were at a cozy bar on a winter night. Beware that they have a reduced menu on Gamedays. We started with the seasoned popcorn which is a MUST - I had never gotten it before but it's such a unique and fun flavor, easy to munch on before your meal. We also ordered fries & the swiss aioli to share - the server said we would need 2 orders for the 4 of us, but we really only needed one. Fries could've been more well done for my liking, but the aioli is a signature at Parlour and the perfect pairing for fries. I do hate that it's an extra $3, it's insane. Finally, everyone ordered burgers and I tried the Chicken Sandwich. It was delicious, but nothing really to special. Our food took a very long time - but it was a busy night. read more

A Restaurant Week win! I had heard about Parlour for years, especially the burger. Just so happened that the planets aligned and we had a free night to drive 3 miles. Fortunately the famous burger was a part of the special menu! I pounced. My wife chose the chicken pot pie and we each ordered the lemon bar dessert. For starters I had the Shallot Champagne Vinaigrette salad that was fresh and full of flavor. I love champagne vinegar. My wife had the deviled eggs starter and really enjoyed them. She also stuck with water and I ordered a Downeast Blackberry Cider. Great flavor, refreshing and easy to drink. After our starters our entrees arrived. The burger was lovely with a grilled bun. I added Mustard and Ketchup and chose to split in half. My wife's chicken pot pie was hot like molten lava and needed bit of time to cool down. The burger meet and exceeded expectations. Juicy, beefy and delicious. The bun was perfect as it absorbed the extra juice flowing from the patty. I truly enjoyed this burger. Next time there fries will be a must! My wife really enjoyed the chicken pot pie with puff pastry cap. The amount of chicken and veg with the gravy was in a nice ratio. She ate half as she wanted to save room for dessert. We gladly accepted a box to bring the remnants home. I love a cold dessert! Some things just taste better to me cold. Creme Brulé is the best example. Caramelize the top and pop it back in the fridge before serving. Donuts the same way especially if filled. Anyway, the lemon bars or should I say "barges" arrived at the table with a dollop of whipped cream. Not only was this nicely chilled it was also tart! Great crust too. I'd go back for the lemon bar too. We thoroughly enjoyed Parlour. Service was great! Food came out promptly. What's not to love? I look forward to my next visit to explore more of the menu. read more
