What Mckenna Howell doesn't like about Skylark Cafe:
the staff was great, but the open microphone leaves a lot of room for improvement. everyone will show up as soon as he's finished. do not ask them to have a bit more treble on their vocals or they will curl it so high for their vocals and gitarre, so it sounds like their play in a dose. they must be one of the first 6 people on the list if they want to play for everyone View all feedback. What Ronnie Applewhite likes about Skylark Cafe:
Great small venue for live music, good sound and lighting. There's an ever-changing beer selection and the food is really good. The Seattle Cheesesteak is a wonderful thing. And somehow they manage to make especially awesome tater tots, which I didn't know was even possible. Great bunch of people run the place and service is always very good. View all feedback.

The Skylark is a small, cozy venue with a great staff and an ever-changing beer selection. The food is delicious, with items like the Seattle Cheesesteak and especially awesome tater tots. The open mic night could use some improvements, like starting earlier on weekdays and adjusting the sound levels. Customers praise the attentive service and great live music atmosphere, with special mention given to the excellent sound engineering. Additionally, the option to purchase a recording of your set adds a special touch to the open mic experience. Overall, the Skylark is a fun and entertaining spot with a variety of events, delicious food, and a welcoming atmosphere for aspiring musicians and patrons alike.
