Awesome place... Goth, Rock, Alternative, whatever your taste in the darker side of music, or even if you want to sample what the darker side enjoy, with a decent pint or shot of your fancy, you won't be disappointed..... A fantastic live venue also. Just the right size....🦇🦇
If you want a Rock Pub, this is it! Wish we had this im my neck of the woods. Gigs on all the time. Big venue, food looked good standard pub fare but I didnt eat on my visit. Plebty of space even if you are not going for a gig
Love the new menu, food was fantastic as always. Myself and my boyfriend Gav come every NYE for food as our little tradition. Best visit we have had so far thanks to our lovely server Neave - she was attentive, funny and had the most fabulous hair I’ve ever seen. Can’t wait to come back soon for the bottomless brunch. Also, extra points for having Desperados available in a can!
First time visiting parish for a gig since the venue moved. Really enjoyed the space and atmosphere, menu looked great but didn't order food. The gig space upstairs is ace, perfectly formed with great sound and awesome visibility of the stage. Love this place.
One of the best venues going for me. Food is always good, good selection of beers and as a musician they have allowed my bands over the years a space to play. Regardless of our smaller social media following they've been there for me and my band mates and are incredibly generous and welcoming to the bands no matter the status and always have been. The staff are incredible and efficient at what they do. The Parish venue needs to stay and will forever hold a place in my positive memory bank. Long live live music!
