    I don't even know where to begin with this one. I attended an adult birthday party here, which was abysmal in its organization. Felt like a kiddies disorganised party with the many kids running amok. Having the event at this location added salt to the already painful injury. You had to pay for your own food at the party, a practice that I still don't understand or appreciate. If you can't feed your guests, then don't host a party. The venue say they offer hearty cuisine, but it's more like heartache cuisine. The food was appalling. They ask you to order via a QR code, which gives the impression that they're organized, but no, it's quite the opposite. They had only one person doubling as cook and server. The food that my friend and I ordered should have taken no longer than 20 minutes max, but we waited for almost an hour and half and even then my friend had to literally walk to the kitchen to find out what's going on and then she discovered the chef was multitasking alone and had even forgotten about our order. When he eventually served, I couldn't believe what he served. Mine looked like dog vomit, and my friend's looked somewhat like food, but both our dishes were inedible. We had to abandon it and went elsewhere to eat and it was already close to 10:40pm at this time. I was 'hangry'. I noticed some other guests struggled with their food too. Then the cocktails 🍸 were like £10 each and not so great either for it to be that pricey. I felt so disappointed that I thought taking photos wasn't even worth my phone memory. Let's just say, I shall not be visiting this place ever again nor recommending to anyone. You visit at your own peril. If you visit and you like it there, you either have set your bar of satisfaction to the lowest or they've improved. And this is why I have given a 1 star. I really wanted to save my star for a more deserving venue, but Google wouldn't let me move past it. You know how they do 😀 On the positive side, they have a good location I think and parking is free after 6:30pm.

    Attended a party here and it was brilliant. The venue looks good and the staff and drinks are amazing! The owners are very professional and customer oriented. The party was a huge success and would definitely go back.

    Trying to charge £20 entry for somewhere that holds barely 100 people. Also the noise they make when they leave is not acceptable

    Been here a few times and staff have always been so lovely and polite, the venue is a good size and decorated very good. I’ve never tried the food but it seems to look good so I will try next time.

    An enjoyable evening spent at this restaurant. Me and 3 friends booked to have a catchup at this new restaurant and we was not disappointed. Beautiful modern decoration throughout and felt very clean and fresh. The 2 courses we ordered were delicious, we had to wait about half hour for our mains as they were very busy but the music and drinks kept us all occupied. Overall a very good first visit here at Parlay. Very friendly and sociable staff members and a good selection of food and cocktails that seem fairly priced considering the portions they offer which is very filling. See you soon and good luck, a very friendly family run business competing with big names in the local area.. 5 stars :)

    A hidden little gem. Only came upon this place through GroupOn and went there with the wife and kids. We found the staff extremely nice and welcoming, with a rustic yet modern theme to the whole place. Decent mocktails and good hala food. The burgers were on point and the starters weren't bad either. Would recommend this place but it does get super busy, we had to ring a few times to get a table as it's always booked.

    Great atmosphere, fast and well prepared food. Quality food can really taste the difference between the food from here and most other places. Will most definitely recommend it, you will not regret it and most probably become a regular.

    This whole experience was amazing. The rapid responses from the owners to the actual staff at the event ensuring I had everything I needed. Will definitely make this space my go-to as they made sure everything went smooth for me. Got my deposit back asap after the event too! So glad I found this place. Would highly recommend
