How the Parrot Began...
Owners Terry and Carolyn Eskew have lived on Grand Lake for a number of years and happen to be no strangers to the restaurant business or hungry people. While they owned Abbots Convenience Store near the Elk river Bridge they opened a restaurant that was adjacent to the store and it soon became one of the most popular places to eat on the north side of Grand Lake. During their years of service Terry and Carolyn realized that Grand Lake needed a full service restaurant destination, a place with a relaxed atmosphere, a menu with variety and best of all a place with great food and service that keeps you coming back time and again. And a Parrot named Jake sitting at the front door to greet you doesn’t hurt either! And today the Eskews’ dream has become a reality. We invite you to stop in and see for yourself why The Parrot is one of Grand Lake’s fastest growing new hot spots! If you come in the evening you can even join in on the famous nightly Sunset Toast.
