Where is the sense of community?
I joined Parlor because I wanted to feel like I was part of a real community. Unfortunately, my experience has been the opposite. At the event I attended, I arrived alone and felt completely lost. Nobody welcomed me, introduced me to anyone, or made any effort to connect members. There were also many people at the venue who weren’t even part of Parlor, which made me question the whole purpose of the event.
I could go to any rooftop bar in NYC by myself and have exactly the same experience — without paying around $800 a year for a membership.
I stayed for about an hour and left extremely disappointed. If Parlor is selling a sense of community and belonging, there needs to be much more effort to actually create it.

Paid membership required for attending events
They make you apply to even join the club. You have to follow them on socials to even be considered. After a week, I got accepted only to see little to no events in my area. What’s hilarious is that you cannot even attend the events unless you are a paying member. I never ever leave a one-star review but this is such a poor experience I felt inclined to share.

Poor execution
The app is excruciatingly slow, opening it takes many seconds, I can’t access the calendar of events outside of it. I’m expected to do everything through the app, but every aspect of it is sluggish and unintuitive.
Overrated and a Scam
Terrible customer service, limited events and only in very small number of locations. They make it almost impossible to cancel and charge you odor things you did not sign up for.
Clickbait, All Events Already Full
I was interested in a specific set of events and paid premium membership to attend said events, upon getting my payment, it was shown that both events were full. Completely misleading, I even asked for a refund or some sort of remediation- none was offered. Also no navigation on the app to end the subscription. Basically if I could give 0 stars I would. This app practically stole my money and has been completely useless.
