Skylark

Editorial Review

Beloved old-man bar Timboo's gets a retro makeover. Inspired by grandma’s basement, Leah Allen of Abilene Bar switches out pool tables for pinball machines. Kitsch-fest on the furniture and the art, like a Welcome to the Johnson’s for the South Slope. Seventies vibes carry over to the sandwich menu: roast beef, cheddar, and mashed potatoes on white bread, paired with French onion soup. Over a dozen beers on tap, with cans of Genesee and High Life for those who prefer quantity to quality.
