Private Dining · 15 guests · August 2025
Loved this venue- Cameron was so easy to work with and communicative. I was traveling in for my birthday party and everything was perfectly taken care of. Food and drinks were delicious.
Everything was easy and great but there was a little bit of miscommunication between my hired decorator, Cameron, and the employees working. We were told we could start decorating around 4:30pm but they denied my decorator entry until one hour before my event. Also, we felt a bit rushed by our waiter on the food but it was all good!

Birthday Party · 30 guests · July 2025
I hosted my birthday/going away celebration at Cafe Skye and everything was truly so wonderful! Cameron was very responsive in communications leading up to the event and Josh the bartender was lovely. My guests had an amazing time--the drinks, food, atmosphere, and pricing was perfect!

Birthday Party · 42 guests · July 2025
Phenomenal space! Cameron was responsive and Cafe Skye was a perfect host. There were flowers and for about 30 people, never felt crowded or like a wait for anything. Can’t emphasize how smoothly everything went! Could have easily fit 10-18 more people. All my guests complimented the venue and staff! So great having the whole venue to yourself on weekend evening with your music!
Truly nothing!
