Skylark is always a homely, welcoming cafe to visit. Felt safe meeting there indoors as all the current restrictions were followed in a discrete way. Excellent Pistachio and Rose cake to accompany my Americano coffee.

We visited Skylark for the first time on Saturday for a quick bite to eat at lunchtime. It has been on our list of places to go for a while but we really wished we had gone sooner. The Croque Monsieur & Madamme were both to die for - the best we've had! I understand it may be the style of the place but we did feel like the tables and chairs could be renewed - there is a fine balance between the feeling of an eclectic mix or an unpolished style but these just felt a bit like primary school tables and chairs. However, please don't let that put you off - what matters is the food and it was great for the small sample we tried :)
Had an absolutely wonderful long afternoon/evening at this novel bistro/wine bar/cafe...... An absolutely delicious concoction made to my own suggested selection of ingredients : poached egg, wilted spinach cooked with spring onions, pine kernals, mushrooms(of course Porty ones!), and home made red pesto on the side. My flat white with oat milk was also a definite hit....gave me a real buzz. The staff are so kind - they allowed me to sit there working in peace without chasing me out after 45 minutes as would be the case in so many of the chain coffee places ie Starbucks. Should also add that the chef does an amazing job of juggling orders for a full house serving what looked like amazing, good value, healthy and unusual tapas for the evening guests.
Lovely lunch, fresh produce, warm and welcoming staff, sanitising and social distancing observed.
Simple, good food well made and reasonably priced. Excellent, friendly service.
