Skylark Cafe - Menu

I would like to think I’m becoming a regular to this place. Haven’t eaten here yet off the menu but had some of there cabinet foods. The cakes are lovely. And it’s a great place to purchase some duck and swan food for the kids...(or adults and go feed them at the ponds. Love the smoothies. And coffee is okay.

the first time we had eaten here, since skylark has reopened and we had a really great experience. there are many excellent veggie options, we had the salad bowl with artichokes and the comminuted avocado on sourded with beautiful coffee and fresh orange juice. we'll see each other for the future to return soon.

Drinks and ice creams are fine but don’t waste your money on the food! Waited over minutes for toasted sandwiches and one ended up being some boiled broccoli and slices of cheese on dry bread. Staff not very friendly so didn’t feel comfortable...complaining, but very disappointed. Won’t bother ordering food again, which is a shame given the location!

Such a shame that such a great location with so much potential offers such thoroughly average food. Even the kids toasted sandwich went untouched. The winter berry salad with dry roasted pumpkin was thoroughly awful with spiralled soggy carrot, soggy cold pumpkin and a weird...pesto sauce. Will not be returning for the miserable staff who can’t even managed a proper hello or smile !

we would have waited for dinner shortly after they said it could take up to minutes. when we asked how much longer it would be, they always told us we were waiting. After minutes I asked for a third time and they. Simply said that they have screwed up our order and have not correctly enforced it so that we have to come back to the line and order. no apologies or care to correct their error. the staff was very helpless and rude, the coffee we made was easy. Don't waste your time or your money!

The Skylark Cafe occupies a fairly central position within the rather disjointed open space bisected by various roads and a railway line which is Wandsworth Common. It is close to both a children’s play area and tennis courts so attracts players of all ages. It...has a couple of rooms in which to enjoy a sandwich, salad and, say, a frozen mocca coffee as well as a space outside with a buggy park. It has recently been refurbished. At midday this Friday it was doing a considerable trade. Service was polite and efficient.

Took my mum and husband here on a Sunday afternoon for a cup of coffee and cake. All of our coffees were Luke warm. The cake we purchased was super dry so I apologetically and respectfully took it back and asked if we could select...a different piece. I didn't mention the coffee. I was met with a tut' and look of disgust. Another cake that I had chosen was thrust into my hand without a look. Unfortunately the next piece we had chosen was even drier than the last. We gave up at that point for fear of the same reaction. I wouldn't return. Shame as we are new to the area and it's a great location

Skylark has just re-opened after an expensive refurbishment and although it looks smarter it lacks the charm of the original. It isn't the relaxed informal place it was. They now play awful music. The service was very slow (twenty minutes to get a hot drink...at our table), the ordering system is confusing, and the quality has gone downhill. The staff were obviously having a bad hair day. Large wooden boxes block easy access to the courtyard and are presumably to stop children running into the path of cyclists? It's quite early days so hopefully things will improve, but I don't want to go back at the moment.

I visited this caffe for lunch with my partner during a day tour on a sunny Saturday. first I was a little taken back that it was not as spacious as on the photos, and the outside seats was a bit crowded with families. but this is due to the Covid regulations, which only makes external service possible and we found a completely quiet opposite to sitting the side of the building. we ordered the app I had downloaded in advance and found very comfortable. it was a little inconvenient that we were called to collect the drinks before eating was done, but we didn't wait long. the food was really excellent. the quality of the ingredients in our toastia and speckrolle was much better than I would ev...
