The Parlour at The Barclay

The setting draws a steady mix of business meetings and hotel guests into an upscale room with moderate noise and private spaces like Salon 1. The kitchen turns out Contemporary American staples, from flavorful French onion soup with broiled cheese at lunch to evening steaks. The experience often divides along service lines: while the food earns praise from standout breakfasts to midday classics, evening visits bring recurring reports of slow, inattentive service in an atmosphere that can feel more like a bar with a food menu than a fully tuned dining room.
