“ Great spot to enjoy live Blues and Soul Music. Drinks are reasonable and strong, try the tropical thunder punch. There's a guy that sells nice hats and another that sells bleach art t-shirts. The back patio is big and has plenty of seating to enjoy the night air. ”

“ Just wanted to update my Yelp review for the Skylark Lounge since it had been over 5 yrs from my previous review left back in 2019. Skylark Lounge is still a great spot to check out live music & we recently saw The Reverent Few band and Brian Scartocci perform on 09/21/2024 ( see the videos included in this review of the live action!) For those who have never been to Skylark before here are a few highlights - This venue does have several tables & booths inside however, it isn't very big inside so I would definitely recommend you get there a bit earlier to grab a table. Parking is free. No food options to order. Clean restrooms! Small dance floor to get your groove on!! Till next time! Rebecca ”

“ A austin gem... Dark, Ecclectic, funky cool vibes Great local music Strong drinks It's a nice reminder for anyone who forgot what attracted them to Austin to begin with ”

“ Great music venue. Was a $10 cover charge. Awesome blues band that night. A bit crowded but they have an out door patio with games and fire pits if you so choose. ”

“ Here in Austin on vacation, and I have a former coworker who lives here and he wanted to take me to some live music. I have never been to a hole in the wall lounge and I admit when we pulled up I was a bit skeptical because parking lot was dark, it's literally like behind an abandoned building and if I was alone I'd prob bypass it lol. But once we got inside, it was a vibe. Those musicians were so amazing! Truly put their heart and soul in it. And it was jam session now so anyone in the audience who was a musician could sign up and play wjth the band. Let me tell u, everyone was getting down with the get down! Lol. I had the time of my life ”

“ I went here for the first time this weekend. We went on a Saturday night around 8:30, and the place was already hoping. There was a $10 cover which was not to bad. Butter and Jam was the opening act, and they didn't disappoint. I enjoyed all the songs they sang, and their band was on point as well. They had a second band that started at about 10pm, but we only stayed for a couple of songs, but I liked the songs I heard. My only complaint is that the drinks were a little expensive, we bought 2 mixed drinks and one beer and spent $30 so that was a little bit more than I wanted to spend but I will say the drinks wete decent considering. I will definitely go back next time I'm in Austin. I love live music and I love that the location wasn't downtown, it is by the airport. They also had a decent amount of parking and it was free. ”

“ Came for our 4 year anniversary and wanted to see a live show in Austin. We had great drinks and had a fun time! I would recommend this place and you definitely need to come see Soul Man Sam! ”

“ This gem is a true little hole in the wall but it always serves up great music. It's not your local tourist spot, it's more of a local spot where you are amongst folks who are grown and looking to have a good time. I've been coming to the Skylark for many years whenever I'm in town and I've had the pleasure to hear some of Austin's greatest musicians. From Soulman Sam & the SMS band to Mary Mac & the Macdaddies . . . You are in for a great show. Recently they have added food service - nothing extravagant but you can get some fries, chicken tenders and such. Get there early to grab a seat, call them to reserve a table but either way get there and enjoy some live music. ”

“ This place was great!! The drinks were strong and fairly prices. Bartenders were good! Everyone was nice. Great space and music was amazing!! I went on a Thursday night. Great vibes!!!!!!!! Really had a great time and got to hear amazing music. ”
