About Skylark Social

Tucked away on Dead Lane at Prettyfields Vineyard in Ardleigh, just minutes from Colchester, Skylark Social is a delightful fusion of farm-shop, terrace café-bar and vineyard-side escape. It’s open seven days a week from 9am and the venue showcases locally-sourced produce in its bright farm shop, welcomes you to unwind on the shaded terrace overlooking the vines, and invites you to linger into the evening with craft wines, artisan cocktails, and wood-fired pizzas. Whether you’re browsing the shelves for fresh ingredients, meeting friends for brunch or a coffee and cake, or settling in for a relaxed supper, Skylark Social brings warm hospitality and countryside charm in a beautifully designed setting.

Our lunch at Skylark was lovely. All the staff were welcoming, professional and polite. The pizzas were delicious and the wines fantastic. The surroundings were spacious, attractive and welcoming. It was my birthday so my pudding arrived with a candle and smiles, which was a nice treat.

A wonderful evening with a fantastic mellow 5 piece band. Staff were friendly and attentive and also made sure the band was well catered for throughout their performance. We had a sharing mezze platter and pizza which were very flavoursome and a good variety of soft drinks. Above all it was the atmosphere and ambience that made it such an enjoyable experience. We could have been in the Mediterranean! What a great find!

Overall good experience on the pizza night, good atmosphere, but, for the price, we expected the pizzas to be bigger and fill out the whole of the pizza box, albeit they were of very good quality.

Excellent service, food drinks, ambience and have booked for one of the evening events with music. Steak sandwich was delicious. Cocktails amazing! Cakes less impressive.

Great sour dough pizza, hand a couple of cocktails as well. The young guys and girls that work here are a real bonus for this place. So friendly. Really friendly and great pizza on a Saturday afternoon. We took the dog and were offered bed and bowl for him. Love this place to walk to at the weekend.

I organised an end of school year get together at Skylark. We were all so impressed. Amazing food and drinks, service was excellent and we loved the atmosphere. All said we would revisit with family soon.
