Be it a sunny birthday picnic, morning walks with a four-legged friend, or seeing your son or daughter take their first pedal on a bike, Wandsworth Common is not just a great place to escape the city. It is part of the fabric of local people’s lives and a place where happy memories are made.

As local residents ourselves, we were inspired to create a place where everyone could enjoy good, imaginatively prepared food and drink with friends and loved ones, making visits to this beautiful natural space even more special.

In April 2014 we opened Skylark*, taking over the existing park café, Common Ground. We’ve renovated the space, created new menus, brought in new suppliers and have developed the team. There is still more to do but we hope you like the direction we are going in. Although we are not open at night, we run pop-up suppers and Skylark is also available for private hire. Please sign up for our email list if you would like to hear about our next supper events.

We are lucky that the café is an important landmark for the community and want to do as much as we can to support this by using local suppliers, organising pop-up stalls run by local mums (or dads!) -in-business and supporting two great local charities, Wandsworth Foodbank and the Wandsworth Common Enhancement Fund.
