The drink menu at The Skylark is a highlight in its own right, showcasing a creative selection of cocktails that are as exciting as they are tasty. But while the drinks are undoubtedly a draw, the menu of dinner bites should not be overlooked. From the vibrant Charred Edamame & Shishito Peppers, kissed with sesame and yuzu, to the rich and creamy Guacamole served with queso fresco and crispy plantain chips, every small plate is beautifully crafted to appeal to your palate. The Cheese & Charcuterie Board is another must-try, featuring an exquisite assortment of local New York cheeses and meats, paired with homemade pickles—perfect for sharing as you soak in the atmosphere.
