Parlor House — Restaurant in Waynesboro

This was my first time here & recommended by a coworker. New to the area, in trying new places. The reviews seemed good. Once inside we were asked our name. This is the first place I’ve been that asks your name then walks off leaving you to wonder is there a wait time or what’s happening? I thought it was rude. As I’m waiting I realize that reviews that say they’ve been coming here for years really mean it! This seems to be a popular hangout for an older crowd & the place is packed. The menu is vague with no pics & you can’t be sure what you’re ordering so I asked. I wanted to try this place because of the seafood selections but to my surprise the word breaded wasn’t on the menu but sure to find it on your plate. If you’re into a healthier lifestyle this isn’t the place for you. There’s a lot of breaded & fried food & I heard some ppl complaining about the amount of butter on their food. Something simple such as veggies have added butter & salt & even ham added. I am not going to knock them on the food taste. It’s good unhealthy food. ** Here’s a kicker! I waited 15 minutes for a seat, around 30-40 minutes for food AND drum roll!!! 20 minutes in a line to pay & leave!! Before considering dining, consider this a diner style restaurant I thought resembled more of a Waffle House with an older generation majority, little healthy food options & long wait times! If that’s what you’re looking for...

This used to be a restaurant that I enjoyed going to throughout my life. The quality of the food is has dramatically been reduced, not to mention the appearance and service.

My husband ordered a bacon cheeseburger, was never asked how he wanted it prepared and when they brought out his burger, there was no lettuce or tomato or pickle, which was always the way he recieved it in the past. I ordered a grilled ham and cheese, with swiss cheese, recieved American. The food alone took 25 mins to get to us and they weren't that busy.

The appearance of the restaurant was awful. Place mats just thrown on corners of tables, instead of neatly set and it's clear that they have finished painting, but absolutely nothing on the walls except hooks and a clock above the counter area.

Our waitress was more worried about talking to the lady that was cleaning the grill. She never checked on us at all and we had to ask for the check, while standing at the counter.

I am extremely displeased with the slow decline of one of the best places to eat in Waynesboro. I wish they would bring back the standards and quality that made this an enjoyable...

Decent food, but disappointed to come in on Sunday morning only to realize they don't serve breakfast on Sundays. Understandable, since they close at 2:30pm. No on wants to set up for two services on an short day. However, the smarter choice would be to do a Sunday brunch, combining both breakfast & lunch items.

I think the issue is that they cater to their regular customers. The problem with that is the typical clientele, as far as I could tell, were primarily seniors. I can understand that, as well, but unless you change things up a bit, you won't attract a newer customer base. They won't be able rely on the current base, forever. A decent Sunday brunch, something Waynesboro lacks, would keep their base happy, but open themselves up to new,...
