The Parrot has established many long lasting realtionships with its’ military customers and have even welcomed several military veterans into their employee family.

Whether you’re the “seat dancing, head bobbing” type or the “full out dance floor - shakin’ your money maker” type, The Parrot is your spot. The Parrot is a very unique blend of downtown dance nightclub/concert venue - meets- local watering-hole and neighborhood bar and grill. With over 16 Hi-Def TV’s, a 20 foot Hi-Def projection screen, 6 pool tables, foosball and air hockey, The Parrot is also a perfect hangout to watch your favorite sports team, catch a UFC fight on the 20 footer, “let” your girlfriend beat you in pool, or just relax with a cheap happy hour beer after a long day at the J.O.B. The Parrot’s diverse crowd has always been the owner’s meaure of success.
Through the years, The Thirsty Parrot has hosted several national recording artists and celebrities including performances by current pop stars Jason Derulo and Gavin DeGraw, actor/producer and musician Billy Bob Thorton and The Boxmasters, American Idol contestant Hailey Reinhart, nationally syndicated radio personalities John-Jay and Rich, Blues legend Tab Benoit, appearances by Olympic swimmer Michael Phelps, and many, many more.
