    MUST...NOT...DRINK FROM LARGE BOTTLE OF PIRAAT
    Anthony Z.

    First, let's consider the name. A lark is a bird. According to my lazy Wikipedia-ing, "Larks are passerine birds of the family Alaudidae. Larks have a cosmopolitan distribution with the largest number of species occurring in Africa. Only a single species, the horned lark, occurs in North America, and only Horsfield's bush lark occurs in Australia." There are several hyperlinks in that sentence, including for "passerine," "cosmopolitan distribution," and, of course, "bird." Do not click them unless you want to travel down a fruitless rabbit hole or, worse, a lark hole. None of this will help you learn more about the Lark. I assume its name comes from its location on Larkfield Road. Until I learned that a lark was a bird, I'd assumed the name was just a cutesy abridgment of the street, like calling a bar on Jericho Turnpike "The Jer." But the logo (mascot) of the Lark is a dark bird, and one could assume that bird is a lark. As a non-watcher of birds, I'll take their word for it. Or their bird for it. The Lark is located in East Northport, which is more accurately SOUTH Northport, but that's a discussion saved for a chapter of one of my many works in progress, "'What's So Central about Central Islip?' And Other Questionable Long Island Naming Conventions." I haven't even started describing the bar yet. Well, let me tell you: It's easy to miss if you're not a denizen of that part of East Northport, because Larkfield Road is mostly a sometimes-clogged thoroughfare connecting Route 25A to Parts South, so you might cruise right on by while you ignore the other storefronts, which include a barbershop, a restaurant whose patrons tend to have been born during the Eisenhower administration, and probably a couple of other bars. If you don't drive past the bar like I've done a few times, you'll be able to park in its moderately spacious lot, a rarity in that part of town. Otherwise, you're condemned to parallel park on the street, a precarious enterprise when there is even a flicker of traffic. You walk into the bar and you get, well, a bar -- plus a handful of tables that are served by a waitress or two, depending on how crowded the place is. And I'll tell you, it does get crowded. Apparently, not everyone is driving past it. When you sample the category of drinking establishments that offer edible consumables, also known as bars serving pub grub, the results can be hit (food that's actually prepared) or miss (a "pizza" festering under a heat lamp). Fortunately, the Lark is the former, and while I'll never consider the place a food-forward establishment like, say, Sapsuckers, it's a reasonable choice if I want to tie one on in order to temporarily forget my myriad troubles while also sating my appetite -- and without having to navigate the more crowded environs of Actual Northport or Huntington Village. Most important, and the obvious way to judge the fitness of a bar, is the beer selection. I am a bit of a beer snob -- an aficionado of Belgian beers, to be precise -- so the fact that they have both La Chouffe and Gulden Draak is a plus, more so because my La Chouffe arrived in a La Chouffe tulip glass, not some random Greenpoint tumbler that happened to be clean. What else? The bartenders and servers are friendly, and would probably be even friendlier if I knew how to have a normal conversation. Instead, I'm asking them questions like: "Do you serve any lark? Can I get the chicken sandwich with lark instead? What do you think lark tastes like? Is it OK if I get the chicken sandwich with chicken instead of lark, but after I take a bite I shout loud enough for everyone to hear, 'YUM YUM THAT IS THE BEST DAMN LARK I HAVE EVER HAD'?" FOUR LARKS

    The beers on tap are listed with their alcohol content so you know what you're getting yourself into.

    While lazing around on New Year's Day, the question came up. "We really should eat something. Where do you want to go?" The Lark sprang to mind because I heard about their Thanksgiving Egg Rolls and really wanted to try them. This was the perfect opportunity. I called and thankfully they were open. I snagged a space right out front on the street and they also have off-street parking When we walked in, the place looked pretty busy. There was only one person working the front of house. I girded for the worst, but was pleasantly surprised. She (I apologize for not remembering her name) was the combination hostess, bartender, waitress, and busboy, and she excelled at each of those roles. We sat at the bar where large TVs were broadcasting the football games. (It was a Sunday after all.) She took our drink orders. I had a Downeast Cider and my girlfriend ordered a lemonade. The cider was crisp and refreshing and tasted more like cider than beer, like some ciders do. For our meal, we shared the Thanksgiving Egg Rolls, my girlfriend had a North-Shore House Salad (mixed greens, golden raisins, walnuts, feta, grape tomato, and balsamic reduction) -- hold the feta -- with Grilled Shrimp. I had the California Burger (with Lark's special sauce, guacamole, and feta cheese) -- no bun and a side salad instead of fries. (It's the New Year. Got to eat right for at least one day, right?) The egg rolls were fried to perfection. Crispy on the outside with fresh-roasted turkey and homemade stuffing on the inside. They serve it with a maple honey glaze and turkey gravy dip to complete the experience. Amazing. I might just close my kitchen and order them next thanksgiving. They're that good. The burger was also very good and cooked exactly to order. I commented that a burger without a bun looked pretty lonely. But that's how I ordered it. The grilled shrimp on the salad looked pretty good. The salad greens on both plates didn't look farmer's market fresh. But they were tasty nonetheless. When things quieted down a bit, the hostess/bartender/waitress/busboy explained that they were understudied because they almost weren't going to open (they weren't last year because of Covid) and just didn't anticipate the crowd. But I, for one, am glad they did open. The evening went off without a hitch. And it's always nice to start off the new year with a good meal.

    French Onion Soup, delicious

    Great little restaurant & bar! I came here after visiting my wedding venue (Larkfield) for a delicious early dinner. They have many different specials each day of the week. I came on Sunday and the $5 apps were a great Located on Larkfield Rd in E. Northport, the restaurant has minimal street parking in front. There is a side lot with a back entrance. They also had a tent set up outside in the back of the restaurant. Inside, there's a large bar and quite a few tables. I came in at around 3:30pm on a Sunday and the restaurant was fairly empty. I was able to get a table right away. The prices are fabulous! They have tons of specials and deals depending on the day of the week. The service was very friendly and attentive. There was a small mishap. We ordered soups, apps & burgers. Our soups came then our burgers. I think they forgot our apps. We had to remind our server about the apps. They were brought out rather quickly after. We didn't feel rushed here. Drink refills came around quite often. The food was amazing! I really enjoyed myself. I will be reviewing what I tried: -French Onion Soup: Absolutely loved this!I know my French Onion and this one highly impressed me! 5 out of 5 stars -BBQ Boneless Wings: $5 during the Sunday special!! These tenders perfectly fried and had a delicious BBQ sauce on top. 5 out of 5 stars -Nachos: $5 special. These were basic but fulfilled the nacho craving. 3.5 out of 5 stars -The French Burger: Unfortunately the burger was more of a medium well after I requested medium rare. I decided not to send it back because it was incredibly juicy and flavorful. Opted for sweet potato fries and what a great decision that was! They were perfectly seasoned and drizzled with syrup. 3 out of 5 stars on the burger, 5 out of 5 stars on the sweet potato fries. Free soda refills! I had a great first experience at The Lark. There were a few slight issues but nothing major. I will definitely be back to try it again!

    Came in yesterday (Sunday afternoon). First time since this was the Blue Moon in the early 1990's. This is a one of a kind pub you just can't find anymore. Great vibes, excellent food and super friendly staff from the kitchen crew to the front of the house. Found my new go to place. The menu is extensive with food for every appetite and prepared with passion. This place is the perfect storm that brings everything that you crave together at one place. I hope one day they will do a VIP point card for regulars that will encourage guests to build points to earn birthday brews and special occasion discounts. Had such a great time talking with the bartender with the beard (forgot his name) he knows his IPA's, ABV's and brands. Can't wait to return!

    Dry Wings (some eaten already). Sauce on side
    Maureen C.

    I must've passed this place a million times and never saw it, but someone recommended it because of the extensive beer selection, and we decided why not? They have a big parking lot, although there is a bunch of street parking as well. We both started with a couple of beers, both awesome (unfortunately don't remember the names), but the hubby commented on how many different ABV choices there were. We got the wings, sauce on side, had the buffalo and BBQ- we did ask for the Thai chili and got the bbq instead, but no biggie. The wings were crispy and decent sized, which is always super appreciated, love love love crispy wings. The thanksgiving rolls were also awesome. Great flavors, not oily, just awesome. They were served with a side of gravy as well. For an entree we split the short rib/brisket grilled cheese with Gruyère and maple butter, and it was soooooooo good. Very unique but also really tasty. The fries were also super crispy and the onion rings are beer battered (so much better than breaded). Our server was the bartender and she was very nice, attentive, and we didn't feel rushed at all. Overall a nice informal place for a date night and will definitely be coming back!

    Fried Mac and Cheese ... a Must!

    Pub and Grub That Hits The Spot! This pub has a long list drafts TVs all over playing different sporting events and an outdoor patio during those nice hot summer days, what more can you ask for. I would expect this would be the type of bar that is packed for sporting events. I went here with a small group of people and were great by the servers who were very nice. It took about 10mins to get a table which wasn't bad for right during dinner time on a Saturday. The selection of draft beers on tap are really good and you will deff be able to find a beer you haven't had before. For the food we got the fried mac and cheese appetizer, Mediterranean spread (hummus,feta, olives....) and I got the Lark burger (jalapeño cheddar sauce, bacon, deliciousness) with the fries. The burger was good the fries were crisp and warm to perfection and the fried mac and cheese was awesome and for the veggies lovers the hummus is delicious and smokey. In short: - Great Draft Beer List - Cool Pub Vibe - Good Food - Friendly Servers

    If I was local you can bet I'd be one to lurk around the lark. I really dig everything about the place. It's on the north shore which I don't get to as often unfortunately (patchogue boy) but man do I dig this spot. The menu is big enough to satisfy my whimsy, but small enough to be well managed and on point. The craft selection is great and so is the service. Joe's the man! He infuses his own Jameson with banana, yup, banana! If Jamo ain't smooth enough for ya, try this mans amazing concoction, I can't wait to come up with some mixed drinks with it. (already thinkin') The lark reminds me of so many good things; the infused jamo reminds me of the fig infused jim beam from a spot in Port Jeff, the name "Lark" reminds me of some fun times up in Albany at the bar of the same name, the vintage Mac n cheese reminds me of the incredible béchamel Mac from a spot in Hauppauge, and the location reminds me of some good times with some good girls.... we'll call them good girls. I digress. The patio in the back is cool and the bar is pretty spacious but it can get crowded regardless even on an off night. It draws a crowd for a reason, a good crowd at that so be sure to fly over to the lark! tip well! They deserve it. Grab a flight, a cocktail, an app, and some grub; you won't be let down. The yelp cash back makes it a no-brainer!

    French Burger
    Yellow R.

    First time at this neighborhood bar, and found the food quite good. Ordered the French burger, which had cheese and carmelized onions, and a onion soup sauce. I ordered the salad, but my hubby had the french fries, which while different may have been better than McDonald's. It was Happy Hour, so the Cabernet Red was only $5.00. They have TV's here and there. Quick Draw games, but it had a small screen. The waitress was excellent. Good parking. Lunch menu of $5.99 on Monday to Friday. Friendly bar in the old town of East Northport. Will definitely return.

Perfectly cooked squid ink linguini, delicious sauce, and far more crab than I was expecting. I would have liked more of the pasta...but the dish was really delicious. The BAD news is that the burger...I'm sorry the FRESHLY GROUND SKIPPER BURGER was not good. I was excited to see that they ground their own meat for their burger, so I inquired about the cuts that were used. The proudly told me it was chuck (didn't tell me the grade) and that they ground the entire large piece of meat to get all that flavor. Okay then. CHUCK is pretty much what you get at your local supermarket. It's the usual meat for hamburger. But when you advertise FRESHLY GROUND...there is an expectation for something special, like a blend of different cuts of meat to get that perfect texture and fat content. We ordered the burger medium rare. It arrived with a nice charred crust, good sign. And then we discovered that it was well done. We could have sent it back, I have no doubt they would have refired it. But, a decent burger even if overcooked should still be moist., and we didn't want a delay in our eating dinner. This burger was dry and crumbly. It also had several pieces of gristle. So, FRESHLY GROUND was not something to be proud of here. This indicates to me that the kitchen does not know how to cook their proteins. The fries and toppings for the burger were both very good, but couldn't save the burger. Prices here are on the high side for what you get on many dishes...but understand the area you are eating in. The pasta dish was good enough that we would come back to try another meal, but I wouldn't order any proteins without having a word with the server about my expectations. But the pasta entrees all looked good to me.

I've been here on numerous occasions hoping that maybe this would finally be the visit where everything clicked. Unfortunately, it just hasn't happened. My experiences have been so-so, and more often than not they've been slightly disappointing. My biggest complaint has always been the food. My take has been it's been bland or uninspired. The French onion soup was just ok, and seemed like no effort putting this together. No provolone cheese option when I've ordered which is crazy. The Caesar salad tasted diluted, with lettuce that seemed waterlogged rather than crisp and fresh. Just overall underwhelming. The food is not necessarily terrible, but just mediocre and forgettable. Portion size is another problem. For what you're paying, the plates often feel surprisingly small. One example of this was the "Big C Burger," which was honestly a huge letdown. With a name like that you'd expect something substantial. Instead, the burger was tiny--maybe 4-5 ounces at most. At first glance you could barely even see the meat because the bun swallowed it. I ordered it medium and it came out completely overcooked, cooked to death really. The bun didn't help either--dense, dry, and overpowering the already small patty. The whole thing just felt poorly executed. Even the little details were off. I asked for olive oil on the side for a salad and what came out was clearly some generic vegetable oil. It felt like a lazy substitution, the kind of thing that makes you question how much care is going into the kitchen overall. To be fair, the one thing Faraday's consistently gets right is the atmosphere. The restaurant is has a cozy charming space with a warm pub feel. The indoor dining area although small has character and a comfortable vibe. The outdoor area is really nice too, and perfect for setting for a nice meal on a comfortable day. Service is good. I've not had any issues with any servers ever being inattentive. Occasionally some order mixups but quickly rectified. Unfortunately, that inviting setting hasn't translated to memorable meals. After several attempts over the years, Faraday's has remained one of those places that seems like it should be good--but for me, it just never quite hits.
