This was a weird experience... We came for brunch with our friends that got married last night.
DON'T PRE-ORDER DRAG BRUNCH TICKETS (like I did!!) TOTAL WASTE OF $$$ it's $85 for the brunch w/ bottomless drink.

“I felt like I stumbled upon one of Chicago’s best kept pub secrets in Boystown.”
I felt like I stumbled upon one of Chicago’s best kept pub secrets in Boystown. Their holiday decor is perfect! Seasonal cocktails so cool. The crab Rangoon dip and cheese breadsticks were insanely good. Get all 4 styles of pizzas they have wood fired there! Dubai chocolate cake for dessert will take you days to finish but well worth it! They do drag brunch on the weekends! Awesome place for private parties from bingo to karaoke! Go, go, go! @chicagopescetarian

Love this place. It’s our favorite in Chicago. Love the atmosphere and the food is always great! I’ve tried multiple menu items and everything was delicious and cooked perfectly. Fantastic beer choices and mixed drinks. Tonight our family went and it was bingo night. We didn’t play. We sat in the side room by the street side with open air next to the wood fired oven. We feel very welcome in a great neighborhood. We’re a straight couple btw. I shouldn’t have to say that but just incase you’re on the fence about going it’s awesome and fun! Just go.

“Stopped by for a drink solo.”
Stopped by for a drink solo. Great selection of cocktails, great happy hour deals. I recommend the cocktail with Chai, it was probably one of the best chai cocktails I have ever had. I also go the Brownie Sundae to go, and 100% will be back for food.

“I enjoy going to Lark for Vivian Du Jour's Extreme Bingo.”
I enjoy going to Lark for Vivian Du Jour's Extreme Bingo. The food is always consistent and good. Service overall is good. Vivian Du Jour has a sparkling personality and is a delightful bingo host! Her performances are high energy and engaging. In the past, I've ordered the Arancini appetizer. I describe them as fried risotto balls served with marinara sauce. Scrumptious shell texture with velvety center and a nice cheese pull. Their Beyond Burger is stacked tall with all extras, including lettuce, tomato, onion, and pickle. The burger is complemented with a generous serving of fries, but I prefer to have their Tater Tots. They have Nachos, but they also have Totchos, with Tots replacing chips. My favorite item is the Lark Lemon Pizza, made with shredded mozzarella, fresh mozzarella, pine nuts, goat cheese, and fresh basil, served with a grilled lemon. I ordered a Brownie Sundae, which is sized for sharing. I would love if they offered smaller dessert portions. I enjoy their wide array of Duck Mules, which are all garnished with a whimsical rubber duck!

“On a recent business trip to Chicago, a coworker/friend mentioned that she has never been to Boystown.”
On a recent business trip to Chicago, a coworker/friend mentioned that she has never been to Boystown. So we decided we will spend the Saturday night bar hopping. We came to Lark Restaurant for food, but ended up staying for the Karaoke night. What a fun and lively night. The ambiance is lively, fun and welcoming. The food is exceptionally delicious. The drinks are impressive and potent. The service is attentive. Amazing and memorable night.

“My fiancé and I went here to celebrate our anniversary and we both enjoyed our time here.”
My fiancé and I went here to celebrate our anniversary and we both enjoyed our time here. The ambient lighting and the music were perfect. Our server was very kind and helpful and the food and drinks were great! My fiancé was elated to see that they had THC beverages! I was elated to see the size of the chicken wings! Highly recommend the chicken wings! I’ve been thinking of them ever since! Their cocktails are great. I love their duck mules and especially love that I get to keep the duck! This place is great and we can’t wait to go back perhaps for bingo!

First night in Chicago for a birthday trip! This place is absolutely amazing! Our server took amazing care of us and we just happened to stumble across unlimited spaghetti night which was such a treat. I highly recommend this place! It's affordable and so tasty.

“Lark was such an amazing experience.”
Lark was such an amazing experience. Loved the Halloween decor. The patio was gorgeous and covered. I don't know if I've had a better brunch experience. $29 for bottomless brunch drinks. They let us take our time. We ate and drank for about 2 hours. I had the breakfast sandwich which was delicious and substantial. The cheesy hash browns were the quiet hero of the meal. Must be made with witchcraft. I could've eaten them all day. Sam was an amazing server. Made sure our drinks were full, very personable, witty, fun to talk to. Would absolutely go back next time I'm in Chicago

“I was amazed by the food here - can’t believe more people aren’t talking about this.”
I was amazed by the food here - can’t believe more people aren’t talking about this. Our server told us our orders were his two favorite things on the menu, and I believe it. I can’t imagine anything better than the chimichurri steak and fried chicken we were served. I suggest sitting away from the windows if they’re open, as it’s an unavoidably noisy neighborhood and it can be quite overwhelming. Service was good and, I must reiterate, the food was amazing!
