Great place for bunch

by DrTim

As a former Portlander, I have been looking for a nice neighborhood joint that serves a good brunch and has a good wait staff. I have found it at the Skylark Cafe. It is a very comfortable place that serves very good food and coffee. The wait staff provides quick and friendly service (and only once and while reminds to close my mouth when I am chewing my food.....just like mom use to do). Going there is a great way to start the weekend and that is the reason why I am a regular Saturday morning customer.

• Pros: Always a nice variety of specials available

What happened?

by Fernando75

My partner and I have been loyal customers of the Skylark Cafe since they opened their doors some years ago. We enjoyed coming in to enjoy the feel, food and most of all the wait staff. We consistantly brought friends and family to create awareness of this little gem which is a little out of the way for some people.

I do not forsee goin back after our breakfast experience on Sunday February 8, 2009. The waitstaff is NOT intune with the customer experience. Our waitress was slow to bring us water, menus and follow up. She was however quick to solicit payment because she was about to leave. Under normal busy circumstances I would understand. But there were 3 watiresses for 5 tables. Come on!

To the manager of the Skylark. Your music is way too loud!!!! For Sunday Breakfast.

• Pros: Decent Food
• Cons: Loud Music/Non attentive Waitstaff

Great place for everyone who wants enjoy!

by Jaeyoung

I usually have been Skylark on Tuesday and Saturday. The mood in the bar totally makes me comfortable.

On saturday, I enjoy watching and listening to a band's great music. If you did not find somewhere where you can enjoy on weekend with your friends, I should recommend coming to Skylark.

If you were starving, you should try "pasta of the day."

I don't know who cook is, but maybe a professional cook made it by using magic in the kitchen.

I like drinking a glass of wine and liquor so I have been looking for good place for me, and this place would be my good place. Skylark even uses bigger glass for gin and tonic than I've ever visited a bar.

If you just visit, you would be addicted to this place. Plus, nice and fun bartenders!

• Pros: Good food and service, Big glass, nice music, friendly atmosphere.
• Cons: A little bit small space.
