From our beloved regulars
I just love everything about the Lark, and I am now super excited about the Saturday extension of opening hours up to 21hrs. My kids love the playground more, the foods are top notch and super delicious, the vegetarian options are just out of this world 🌎. Whether leisure, work or just a chat= just LARK
I love this place so much I enjoyed the food. We got our meals quickly and hot and I’m for sure going back to lark cafe.
Excellent - location, atmosphere, coffee, food, design, service. All great. Lovely space to meet, work, or just be.
How can I sing the praises of this wonderful cafe. I came for lunch with some co-workers and the entire ambiance has just delightful. I ordered the bacon Brie and pesto sandwich. It was an absolute delight. The true beauty of lark is in the details. From the metal straws, to the compostable cups, Lark delivers a sustainable dining experience. I will be coming back!
I stumbled upon the hidden gem that is Lark Cafe in Lilongwe, and I'm still reeling from the experience! Tucked away in the heart of Lilongwe, this charming café is a must-visit for anyone seeking a tranquil retreat from the hustle and bustle. From the moment I stepped inside, I was enveloped in a warm and inviting atmosphere that immediately put me at ease. The décor is tastefully curated, with a perfect blend of modern elegance and rustic charm. The natural light pouring in through the large windows only adds to the sense of serenity. But what truly sets Lark Cafe apart is the exceptional service. The staff are attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable, taking the time to guide me through the menu and offering expert recommendations. And then, of course, there's the food – oh, the glorious food! Each bite was a masterclass in flavors and textures, with every ingredient working in perfect harmony. Whether you're a local or just passing through, Lark Cafe is an absolute must-visit. Do yourself a favor and indulge in a cup of expertly brewed coffee, savor a delicious meal, and bask in the warm hospitality of this incredible café. I'll be back, Lark Cafe – and soon!"
This is the same as the other Lark Cafe (closed on maps) but just in a new location. The food and see were fantastic and the garden like seating areas very relaxing and a great way to enjoy a good meal. This is by far one of the best, maybe the best, places I have eaten in Lilongwe. I had their gourmet burger which tasted just as good as you'll find in any fancy burger shop served on a nice soft bun just dripping juice all over your hands as your eat. There was also a great burger to bun ratio and every bite got me bun and burger. And unlike many burgers this one did not leave me feeling stuffed and bloated, I just felt satisfied. My only wish is that they would open for dinner as they close at 430 but I hope I can return before I head home in a few days.
Great cafe in a lovely walkable area. Thankful for the dairy free (almond milk) option for my chai. Ciabatta bread sandwiches are delicious and the staff are very friendly
Lark is easily my favorite restaurant in Lilongwe! Great coffee and always-unique food. After being away for two years, I popped in and ordered the Butternut Feta Wrap and it tasted the exact same as the day I left! Even at this new and improved location, their dedication to the quality of their product remains unwavering. Can’t wait to be back!
Friendly and polite service. Good coffee. Great that they have almond milk! It would be wonderful if there were vegan options for food 🙏 Very nice seating areas
This place is amazing. From the atmosphere when you walk in, to the friendly staff that welcome you and show you to your seat. The food was so delicious too and this is place is easily in the top three of amazing places to have visited in Malawi. We were served by Gordon, a remarkable gentleman that made us so comfortable. Thank you.
