Larry Lounge Poster for the Parlour
The Parlour Providence Arts & Entertainment ·$$

Karaoke, open-mic, and live music: what more could you ask for in a bar? Those events thankfully are not on the same night, but it doesn't really matter, because every night is a fun one at the Parlour. Alongside music that features all types of acts, visitors will find plenty of craft beers as well as domestic ones. Options like Guinness and Bass are here and they even have Yeungling Lager (from the oldest operating brewery in the U.S.) on tap. On the menu, sandwiches, entrees and pizza options all have names that praise Northeastern locals like Robert Parrish from the Celtics, baseball player Lou Merloni and former mayor Buddy Cianci.

Stopped in after having dinner to have a drink and listen to live music. Visiting from NYC and we were looking for some night life. We used trip advisor to find this place and they were having open mic night which sounded interesting. When we pulled up it looked like just another bar. Upon entering there was limited seating but we were lucky to find 2 stools with the help of one of the musicians. The drinks were very reasonable and the atmosphere was fun. Our biggest surprise was some of the talent, especially a regular singer songwriter Allison Rose. It was a very diverse and eclectic crowd which added to the overall experience. One young lady read a few touching and relatable poems. From singers to keyboard players to guitarists to rappers the variety was abundant. No cover charge. Overall we had an enjoyable night and highly recommend to anyone looking for music and drinks in a very casual setting. Be sure to catch Allison. I hope she comes to NYC soon!

I heard baout The Parlour from folks at my yoga studio as a few people from the band Gained in Translation played at the studio. Found out they were playing from 5-8 at the Parlour on a recent night so a couple of friends came with me to see the five piece band play. It was a great night. The band was great, Victoria's voice amazing as she sang songs in many languages. A very small bar type place with not much seating but if you can score a table you are lucky. We went early! Drinks are very reasonable. Pub menu has delicious food. Everyone so friendly. We got everyone up dancing despite the small amount of space...really fun. We went a second time to hear The Tabors...a father son keyboard team who were also amazing to listen too. Lots of different type early bands...music of one kind or another every night. Loking forward to return. Age varies probably depending on the type of music being played. Groups that play seem to have quite a following. Parking on the street.

Excellent venue. The drinks are reasonable. They have diverse programming. Every Monday is Reggae Night, Tuesday is open Mic, Wednesday they have funky jam bands and a sick DJ, Thursdays are random band events. My favorite thing about this place is the weekend early shows. Friday, Saturday and Sunday there's a show from 5pm till 8 or 9pm. Friday Night show is Karaoke, Saturday Night is for touring or local acts, Sunday is Jazz and then some local show. I love this place. It is friendly to everyone. The sound is amazing, I could hear everything clearly and still order a drink at the bar without yelling my order. I have gone back on numerous occasions and have never been let down. The cover, if they have one is usually $5 for the artists and under, never exceeding an affordable price. Just go there once and you will see it is a cool comfortable community to have fun with!

We went here to catch the spring show of Larry's Lounge, a two-hour plus show of music and comedy and some other weird, uncharacterizable acts. What a great performance by a variety of folks. Good drinks, good cheer. These shows take place every three or four months and aren't to be missed!

Best and probably cheapest place to get stupidly drunk while listening to pretty good live music in Providence. Located in a not so ideal location on north Main Street, this place has so much happening inside even though it looks like just another bar from the outside. Budweisers, bud lights and millers for 3.50$, max price for a draft or bottle is around 6$, they do have a decent selection of beers. Cocktails are also around 6$, not the best ones but a great deal for the price, also the bartenders work like crazy and are undertipped :/ They have cover charge at the front, went on a Wednesday, changes every day I think but was around 5$ when I went. Slightly older crowd I'd say. They do have some food including chicken pot pie, didn't get to try. Street parking's there. Overall great place to have fun and listen to great live music with cheap alcohol. You could bring a date if you want to but it's usually pretty loud. I'd like to try their food the next time I'm there.
