About Us
Parallel was designed to be a place that’s alive, new, and innovative. There’s a feeling of material weight and realness that’s hard to come by. We invite you to come in and stay for as long as you like. Bring your friends for brunch, grab an espresso and halva on the go, or sit and read on the mezzanine. It’s our favourite place to take in the crowd, enjoy our organic rooftop garden, and if you’re lucky, watch the freight train pass by.
