About this place Purple Parrot Bar

The Purple Parrot sits on Rehoboth Avenue, the strip that runs straight to the boardwalk. It’s a cheap, casual bar‑and‑grill that pulls in a busy crowd and more than 2,000 Google reviews, with a steady local following. Food and drinks are on the menu, and the clientele blends regulars with summer visitors. Open daily from noon until 1 a.m., and until 2 a.m. on Friday and Saturday, the spot stays alive long after the beach lights go down. Its location on the main avenue means you’ll find it in no time, and a short walk along Baltimore Avenue brings you to the rest of the town’s gay bars and restaurants. Weekends in summer are packed; off‑season, it’s mostly locals.

Went here for dinner not even to get any drinks (me and my friends don’t drink alcohol but that doesn’t even matter given we are grown adults) and we were refused entry by the bouncer before even ASKING to see our IDs???? She rudely said “yea you’re too young no”, refused to look at them at first, and then when we said “really are you sure?” and gave them over for her to look (although at that point we didn’t even want to eat here anymore we just wanted to prove we are very much adults), she asked for a credit card to prove it (she very much could tell our license was real she put a light over it and everything, and also, minors can obtain credit cards so am I missing what the point was in this???). Then she did it to ANOTHER one of us to. Didn’t apologize or even make a light joke out of it to make it better or anything. Even if we did drink, we are all legal adults, out of college, and one of us works for the military and had proof of that as well. We felt a bit profiled because we’re asian and look younger. I’m sure there’s lots of people with fake ID’s in Rehoboth, that they have a job to do, right to refuse service, busy nights, etc. But it was the way she went about it. Being rude to us, refusing to even look at our ID’s at first, and acting smart like she knew before even viewing our credit cards, licenses, etc that we were not of age. There was no line behind us, she wasn’t busy, so I don’t know why she denied us before even bothering to view our ID’s. And I think it’s pretty obvious when an ID is fake nowadays, so asking us more than two times for more forms of ID is absurd. Again, it wasn’t a “haha yea no way you’re adults” thing. She wouldn’t look at our ID’s and said to basically get lost before we basically had to insist she look. We didnt end up eating here obviously. Someone fire whoever this bouncer is, the cops are gonna get called on her eventually. We just assumed maybe she had a bad day and let it go this time.

The crabcakes were phenomenal. While there was a long way to get a table, it was worth it once we finally sat down and had our meal. The place had a great vibe plus there was live music that was really good. You can put a dollar bill on the wall with your name on it and to see the place covered with dollar bills is really cool.

We waited an hour for the food; I ordered a hangover burger. I drove 12 hours to get to this place, and they forgot about the egg. We mentioned it to the staff, and they did not get us another egg to add to burger or an apology.

Walked in here around 11pm and was craving a quick bite and good vibes. They definitely did not disappoint. Security was friendly and inside was lively with Karaoke going on. Ordered from the late night menu the buffalo wings and turkey club wrap. Both were tasty and hit the spot. A good mixed crowd with good vibes. Definitely recommend.
