Here's to a New Legacy...
Skylark opened last week in the former Timboo's space. It's the new bar from owner Leah Allen, who also owns Abilene Bar on Court Street. The original bar from Timboo's got a facelift and remains intact. You can belly up to it starting at noon everyday and get one of 14 beers available on tap. A few sandwich options like chicken cordon bleu and roast beef, cheddar, and mashed potatoes on white bread will help absorb some of the booze.
There's no more pool table but you can get your pin ball on at either the Star Trek or Harlem Globetrotters machine.
If you look close enough you can see it still says "Bar" on either side of "Skylark." This is from the old facade that was in place since 1969, when Timboo's opened on the corner of 11th Street and 5th Ave in Park Slope.
