Love this place! I've been a couple times this week. They open on weekends for brunch at 10:30 AM. Their cafe is open during the day where you can order coffee drinks and pastries. And, they're open for dinner every day. I love their food and their drinks! I love their hot chocolate special, their drinks, and their specials! You have to try their pancakes! Best I've had. They have window seating, bar seating, and plenty of spacious booths. If you haven't tried this spot, you should! I can't wait to stop back in again soon. read more

What a pleasant surprise this was ! It appears to be a cut coffee spot, but keep walking into the main restaurant, which features a bar and banquet and high hat tables. Enjoyed a delicious Saturday brunch here, featuring inventive and thoughtful dishes! My omelette avec champignons (mushroom omelette) was also filled with feta and spinach and was wonderfully created. Accompanied by a tasty watercress salad and a chunk of fresh sourdough, this meal was complete, but a side order of bacon rounded it out well. Began with " Smoked roe and revelry," a delicious dish of diced potatoes with caviar that was simply amazing! My friend had "The Pelican Platter," a very generous puffy pancake, accompanied by scrambled eggs and Old Bay tater tots, and the eggs and tots went home with her, as it was a lot of food. I was able to enjoy pistachio milk with my coffee, and other alt milks were available, as were a variety of coffee drinks (latte, mocha etc.) when we left, we saw the wider range of lattes and matchas they were offered at the coffee shop portion of the restaurant, but I did not see these on the main restaurant menu. A pity, because I would've loved to have tried the strawberry matcha, or the gingerbread latte. The only downside of our visit was being seated at the high top banquette tables that were alongside the bar. The seats were very uncomfortable, and lacked much of a flooring to them, which meant either your feet were dangling while your back was supported, or you kept your feet on the Floor bar, with your back unsupported. Either way, not a comfortable seat. I wish we had been seated at one of the low tables, or even at the bar itself. But that was not have made for good conversation for our party of four. If you go, would suggest that you get one of the regular tables, instead of the high top banquettes. read more

I came here for dinner on a Friday night. Although this restaurant opened less than two months ago, it is already impressively popular so reservations are definitely recommended. We sat in the front room by the door. You could feel a bit of a draft every time someone came in or out, but it wasn't too bad. The decor was tasteful, with an old world vibe. Lighting was dim. To start, we shared the truffle and gouda croquettes. An order came with six pieces and was served with a blue cheese sauce. These were delightfully airy and crispy, though the portion size was a tiny bit small. For my main, I had the black truffle fettuccine. The truffle flavor was mild and a bit tangier than I'm used to, but the mushrooms were perfectly tender and the sauce was pleasantly creamy. My husband had the Parisian burger and enjoyed it. To drink, I had the Bow Thai. You could definitely taste the rum and it was nice and fruity. They forgot to give us utensils for our entrees, but otherwise, service was good. The owner was friendly and stopped by our table to check if everything went well, which was very appreciated. This is a great addition to the neighborhood! I'm looking forward to trying their pizza next. read more

I celebrated my husband's birthday here. It was a Monday night so there ambiance was very chill. There weren't that many people there. But we loved the vibe. We had our small child with us and they catered to them. Service was impeccable. The manager was super attentive and very personable. The food was fresh and delicious. Even the kids chicken tenders were so good (haha). I will definitely be back for a happy hour session. read more

My boyfriend and I stopped in here for a nightcap. The ambiance in the restaurant/bar is wonderful. Definitely a NYC vibe. The bartenders were very friendly and helpful. I had their version of the old fashion and my boyfriend had a Jamaican rum and coke. Both drinks were wonderful. We are looking forward to returning for dinner! read more

Dinner on Friday night was awful. They serve sardines in the can with a slice of lemon and call it a dish. Waited over a 1/2 hour for a drink order. Never going back read more

New cafe in town - soon the restaurant too! There's a lot of nice attention to detail for the decor and aesthetic. The coffee menu is small but solid. The pastries are from Balthazar. I can't wait to make memories here! read more

Not so easy to find a "proper" cocktail in lower Westchester. Thank you Jordan for a fantastic mezcal old fashioned. Service was fantastic. Love the appetizers and OFC the chocolate cake is a winner. Fantastic vibe, lovely staff and atmosphere. When you sit at the bar, the bartender can "make or break" the experience. Thanks Jordan, we will be back! read more

Great atmosphere! Cal, the owner couldn't be more charming. Service was excellent and the food... another level of delicious! Transplanted into old NY with exceptional attention to detail. A DO NOT MISS! Cynthia L. read more

I absolutely love this place! Specifically, the café, from the specialty lattes to the service and ambiance. Parlor Coffee is one of my favorites, so learning that this is their brew was the absolute cherry on top. Oh, and the head barista, Vivian, is a ray of light. Stop by either for a great-tasting matcha or latte, sit at the brightly lit café, or even enjoy a happy hour in the beautifully designed bar area. You won't be disappointed. I'm happy to see this addition in Pelham! read more

We stopped by to try their Happy Hour Menu. We were very pleased with the service and food. The Pelican room is a laid back upscale atmosphere with awesome drinks and food. I ordered the house speciality Peach Peach and I was extremely happy with my choice. We also ordered the poppy seed piggies and all I can say is wow!! Delicious is an understatement, a great presentation and the flavor was definitely on point. This is a great chill out spot. read more

The food and service as well as the ambience are wonderful at this new gem of a restaurant in Pelham. I've only visited twice, but I'm very happy with everything. I've experienced thus far. I think people of all ages would love it, though it's not a place for small children. They do have a kids menu, if you decide to bring your children with you. The bar is fabulous, and the mixologists do a good job. I will definitely attend again. I wish they're happy hour was longer than one hour, and I wish the seats were more comfortable. But it's a small price to pay to have the stuff dates. read more

Wow!! The most exciting new place in Pelham right now. We got together for a gender reveal party last night. Cal was able to accommodate 17 of us in the front room which gave us some privacy because we are a LOUD bunch. It was so much fun, staff services were great and the food was absolutely delicious. Chicken and oh the asparagus dish! WOW! The speakeasy looks like so much fun! Can't wait for happy hours here! read more

We had an amazing time at The Pelican room for brunch on a Saturday. No wait time and food came pretty quickly. Vivienne our server was amazing and gave us great drink recs (roasted honey latte and cold matcha special). The food was so tasty with good portion sizes. We got the Pelican plate and the steak and eggs. What an incredible way to start our weekend! We had a great time and will definitely be back read more

Another addition to the Pelham wasteland of sub par food. I work in Pelham but always wind up in the river towns for a decent to stellar meal. The space would be better off used for another paint store. Drinks are good but priced like Le B in Manhattan. read more

Overpriced and Understaffed The interior has a cool vibe--unfortunately, we weren't seated in that space. Instead, we were placed in the front room, which had zero atmosphere and absolutely no heat. It was freezing, made worse every time the front door opened since our table was right there. Service was extremely slow. It took about 15 minutes for a server to even acknowledge us, and another 30 minutes just to receive drinks--before we could even place a dinner order. The menu looked promising, but the food itself was just okay and ultimately forgettable. Once our meals arrived, our server never checked on us again. We weren't offered a second round of drinks--which may have been a blessing, given how outrageously overpriced they are. Beware of ordering drinks not listed on the menu. A simple tequila and club soda was charged at $36, which is absurd. We asked for leftovers to be wrapped, and despite having nearly a full dish remaining, it was returned in a tiny 4-oz container--meaning most of the food was thrown away. When we questioned this, we were told that was "all the food," which was clearly untrue. Adding to the annoyance, a man in a fedora repeatedly wandered through the dining area aggressively pitching their speakeasy, which felt intrusive rather than enticing. Parking was also a hassle, and after spending a significant amount of money, having to walk several blocks to our car in a sketchy area was the final straw. Overall, this was an expensive and disappointing experience: lackluster food, painfully slow service, wildly overpriced drinks, and poor attention to basic hospitality. Not worth the money. read more

The bar is insane. The drinks incredible. The food delicious. One of the chillest upscale but not pretentious places in all of westchester. Get in to this place before it gets known too much because you won't be getting a table here soon. The burgers are juicy, the cocktails are fantastic, the vibe is unlike any of the tired old westchester Italian joints. This place is the real deal read more

What a gem. Service, ambience, decor, sound system, food, and everything under the sun in creating a wonderful new restaurant in Pelham is truly impeccable. It is exquisite. Small dining room. Suggest going sooner than later. Possible it will be a sell out and you'll not get a table easily in very near future! read more

The Pelican Room was disappointing . I ordered the Steak Poivre called a NY strip. Steak was cooked well but it was Some no name beef not NY strip The fries were ordinary. This was 56$ an outrageous price for this food!! read more

If you're not bothered by a pretentious and condescending staff, this place might be for you. However, I genuinely can't understand how they can be in the hospitality industry. There are plenty of other restaurants that appreciate my business around, I won't be returning. read more

I'm so glad I gave this recent addition in Pelham a try. The menu was creative and has something for everyone. Vibe is relaxing and comfortable - feels like a place you've been going to a long time even though it's only a few months old. Service was good and I met the personable owner. Really enjoyed my evening there and I look forward to returning to try more of the menu. read more

The Pelican Room is a bonafide experience. It took a long time to get here but now that it's here, oh boy is it ever so good. Absolute top marks for decor and ambience -- seating as gorgeous as they are comfortable, quite spacious, and great lighting. We were seated next to a table of screaming harpies but that's hardly a ding on the establishment. The bar is visually impressive, those bar seats are awfully inviting. I ordered the Smoking Barrel -- it was... okay. For a bourbon and tea concoction, I couldn't pick up any tea in the drink. Still, enjoyable enough. Let's get on to the food, shall we. The Devil & The Lyon deviled eggs were surprisingly good and brilliantly balanced. The French Dip sarnie is definitely big enough for two -- the trick is to eat it over the fries so the fries can soak up the dripping jus. Big marks for the Everything Crusted Salmon. The Sweet Heat pizza absolutely lived up to the name -- pronounced sweetness with just the right amount of heat. I hate to use the word balanced again but here we are. I'm saving the best for last. The Parisian Burger, ordered medium rare. This was a transporting burger. I can't remember ever ordering a burger in Paris. But there was something about this Kalico cut beef (what even is that) with brie and cornichon that sent my head right back to a Parisian bistro. So juicy and rich. The fries were outstanding as well. Just a 10/10 burger. I want to go back to try the rest of the menu, but I wouldn't be mad if I feel right back into this Parisian Burger trap. read more

One of the most negative dinning experiences I've had in a long time. To enter the the restaurant, you walk through a front room that looks like an addition to the main restaurant. People eating in that area clearly looked cold. They were wearing their coats. It's December. When we were informed our table would be in this area I immediately asked for a table in the main seating area and was told I would be put on a wait list to move inside. The evening went downhill from there and there was never any effort to move us, we watched several groups walk in and get seated in the main area. We were seated right next to a drafty window, it was pretty rough. Should have left, but was hungry and the food next to us looked good. I had hopes that by ordering quickly we would be ok until we got a table inside. The waiter was nice, but seemed incredibly stretched thin. We soon found out a table near us, also cold, had been waiting 90 minutes for their food. We too had been waiting for a long time. At that point we asked for our entrees to go, I couldn't take freezing anymore. Other tables around us were speaking up about the experience, we did as well, and the manager was apologetic but failed to take any action - never tried to move us, didn't offer anything and then explained the heat wasn't properly working in the front area. To seat people in that area without properly functioning heat was wildly inconsiderate. read more

The restaurant and cafe's ambiance is wonderful. We've been at the cafe during the day and had dinner last night. The grilled Cesar was awful, don't order it. You'll be disappointed. The prosciutto and burrata pizza was just okay. We will return and try other things, hoping because of their newness, they'll get better. read more

I've been waiting for this place to open and it hasn't disappointed me yet! I've only come for the cafe portion so far, but the coffee is very delicious as is the matcha. The barista was super friendly and efficient. The strawberry matcha is to die for, definitely recommend. The cafe is simple with a few chairs and tables but lots of great natural lighting. The dining area/bar is in the back, it has an intimate lounge feeling. Very excited to try the food next time. read more

Arguably the best restaurant and bar in Pelham. Finally a vibe and menu that tastes like your favorite neighborhood restaurant in Brooklyn/Manhattan. Extra points for possibly being the only bar without TVs on 5th Ave. The vibe is casual/cozy enough for a 5pm weeknight meal with the kids but also sophisticated enough for a date night. Everything we have tried has been great. The menu keeps growing. I'm excited to try their brunch once they start brunch service. read more

How happy we are that this restaurant opened, it is such a great addition to Westchester!!! We had the salmon, the Parisian burger and the cheesecake, all were delicious!!
