Skylark’s Hidden Cafe
Skylark’s Hidden Cafe is hosting Easter Brunch from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m., followed by dinner until 9 p.m., and the restaurant strongly recommends making reservations. Visitors can order from a special Easter brunch menu.
“For us, it’s kind of like the game of Tetris, where we need to move tables and reservations around to fill as many requests as possible. We will try to continue to fit guests in by taking reservations and walk-ins right up to Easter Day, but to guarantee a table, I would be making your Easter plans now. We also plan to utilize our covered/heated patio for walk-ins, but our small kitchen does limit the number of guests we can serve at any one time,” Brad Haggen, Skylark’s general manager and owner, wrote in an email.
Reservations can be made by calling 360-715-3642 or online. Skylark’s Hidden Cafe is located at 1308 11th St. in Bellingham.
