Try using the Parents.get. A successful request returns a link to both parent and the file itself. Here's a sample response:

{
 "kind": "drive#parentReference",
 "id": "0Bw-w9jw2bwglbzlvMVh2cll2dmM",
 "selfLink": "https://www.googleapis.com/drive/v2/files/1-ABCDEzyvp9NFmWz7h6ssgkTKHytO1Nq4SNIboDW8A/parents/0Bw-w9jw2bwglbzlvMVh2cll2dmM",
 "parentLink": "https://www.googleapis.com/drive/v2/files/ABCDEjw2bwglbzlvMVh2cll2dmM",
 "isRoot": false
}

Here's the JAVA implementation from the docs:

 private static boolean isFileInFolder(Drive service, String folderId,
      String fileId) throws IOException {
    try {
      service.parents().get(fileId, folderId).execute();
    } catch (HttpResponseException e) {
      if (e.getStatusCode() == 404) {
        return false;
      } else {
        System.out.println("An error occured: " + e);
        throw e;
      }
    } catch (IOException e) {
      System.out.println("An error occured: " + e);
      throw e;
    }
    return true;
  }
