About The Skylark Café

The Skylark Café is a Trusted Tagvenue Partner, validated by the Tagvenue team with a record of successful bookings on the platform.

Nestled within 170 acres of open space, The Skylark Café sits at the heart of Wandsworth Common. Our very first café—and the beginning of the Roots & Berries family—serving specialty coffee, all-day breakfast and brunch. Dog-friendly, family-friendly and welcoming to all.

The Common is woven into everyday life here, from feeding the ducks and weekend picnics to winter walks and long summer days outdoors. The Skylark is a natural meeting point, perfect for refuelling after a walk with friends.

Our summer BBQs on the terrace are hugely popular for special occasions, with flexible venue hire indoors and out throughout the year.

We can’t wait to see you!
