Parlour is a great spot for a relaxing break. The ambiance is just right, with a pleasant atmosphere and enjoyable background playlist. The selection of pastries is excellent, offering a wide array of tempting treats. I enjoyed a delicious pastel de nata and an iced latte. The staff were very friendly and provided great service. We noticed many families with children, which contributed to the cafe's welcoming atmosphere. Overall, we had a very pleasant time at this cafe and we have returned many many times. One of the best ones in blackrock

I was just walking with my boyfriend in Blackrock when we decided to stop for some food and this lovely coffee shop was our pick. Exactly what I needed after our little walk. The sandwiches were so fresh and the coffee was also great. Cherry on top was the staff! Really polite and helpful! Thanks Parlour team!!

Absolutely gorgeous little coffee shop with a wide selection of baked goods - including lots of GF options! Gavin is such a sweetheart, has amazing energy and brill recommendations! The coffee is good, love the strawberry and banana smoothie and the viennese swirl is crumbly and delicious! It's just a few mins from the coast too which is lovely! 100% recommend popping in if you're in the area!

This coffee shop has quickly become my daily go-to spot. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, but the real stars are the staff! Arthur is the best barista in town! Gavin and Juliana are always there with a friendly smile and ready to assist with any request. They offer more than just coffee, though. Their chicken pesto sandwich is a personal favourite, and their daily soup is always a delicious and satisfying option. Don't forget to explore their pastry and cake selection, everything is fresh, beautifully presented, and incredibly tasty. Overall, this coffee shop is a must-visit. You won't be disappointed by the friendly service, delicious food and drinks, and welcoming atmosphere.

Just amazing selection of scones, I spotted 6 different ones, a few very tasty gluten free cakes and also tasty soups. I tried sweet potato/ coconut, it was with a hint of spice and delicious. They have barista coffee and the service is very pleasant.
