Reviews of The Dark Horse
B. W.
Lovely friendly staff, great drink suggestions. Calm place with one of the Game of Thrones doors. It's beautiful!!! The pub itself is carefully decorated, will be returning, lovely pub!
S. P.
Visited on a weekday afternoon so the place was t too busy but still had a nice atmosphere! Nice bar with a wide selection of drinks, nice service and good coffee. Reasonable prices in the center of Belfast in a lovely touristy walking street. Would recommend and would return!☺️
B. D.
Like it. Great character and staff, worth a trip for the venue alone. Enjoyed a Guinness there. Only gripe would be one toilet for all but alternative nearby.
M. F.
Never been here before but highly recommend. Haven't tried the food yet so will be back one day to give it a go. The courtyard is covered in murals which makes for a great setting when having a pint or two. Inside you will find one of the carved Game of Thrones doors made from the fallen trees of the Dark Hedges. Great location.
J. M.
Really nice pub, usually can pull your own Guiness in there and get a few photos etc. Good coffee and cakes too!
G. B.
My favourite spot in Belfast. Great food, and the some of the nicest staff I have ever encountered. The manager even gave us a tour of the property when we chatted to him.
A. A.
We had an awesome experience here. The waiter was great. Super energetic. He showed us around the pub and shared some must see places in the area. I wish we had more time.
C. C.
Just had a drink in here and it is a really beautiful bar. The red velvet furniture is opulent and the barman was really friendly and helpful. Looking forward to going back for a longer visit
M. V. I.
The gentleman running the bar today was a professional of the hospitality industry. Welcomed us in, advised on our drink and dining options, recommended areas and other establishments in the area. Five stars! A must see in Belfast!
T. M.
Came initially only to see one of the Game of Thrones wooden doors, but oh what a lovely place. Beautiful decor and super friendly staff. Can definitely recommend the Belfast Red Ale. Make sure you venture outside (even if it's raining) to see all the amazing Belfast Murals.
A. B.
Nice venue with an alright drink selection. They don't turn music on until a bit later to let people chat.
The murals in the courtyard are really stunning. Well worth a visit
M. C. I.
A beautiful pub located in the centre of Belfast. Has good drinks and is situated in an area full of other interesting pubs. This pub also has 1 of the 10 Game of The doors located around Northern Island.
H. H.
Great bar and friendly staff
C. H.
Another lovely pub in the heart of Belfast....actually although still buzzing with happy chatter it was a calm haven in this boisterous neighbourhood. Adding to the pleasure was a guy in the corner busting out some tunes on his beautiful guitar. Quite charming and well worth a visit.
L. S.
Absolutely loved it here! If you are GOT nerd then the door is a must see and The staff are some of the nicest people I've met on my travels. Would recommend to everyone!
C. L.
While one of the most expensive pints in Dublin, the service was friendly and the space was not too rowdy. They close early, but have a nice courtyard and gorgeous interior.
C. H.
Vintage coffee and tea bar. Old style decor. GOT door too! Friendly staff and a cool courtyard out back with murals.
A. O.
Very limited beer choice, nice room but zero atmosphere.
T. M.
First time I've been and I was amazed at the decorated walls full of old advertising mirrors and signs/posters. Place obviously popular as it was very busy, staff did an excellent job with the table service. A bit too loud for a conversation with my drinking buddy as table's nearby were louder to speak to each. Had to leave as my throat was sore from trying to speak across small table. Noise alone was enough to make my head hurt. If I go back I'll have to check how busy it is.
A. S.
Great bar, the beer garden is lovely with lots of funny art. Stewart is an absolute gent, made us feel very welcome, He should be running the place, fantastic host. Try the house whiskey!
t. b.
Good pint of guinness lovely traditional pub very friendly staff
m. c.
Very friendly bouncer invited us inside when my daughter was flagging from the heat and the street outside was bustling. Inside is beautiful and the staff very attentive. Checkout the back yard which is covered in murals.
G. A.
Lovely atmosphere. Stunning historical decor. Even the walls outside have a history. Reminds me of Templebar... sort of.
L. R.
Stuart and Kevin, top bar men really enjoyed your craic
J. M.
Really nice pub! Service is great. Love the decor inside. The Toast Office also offer their menu in here now too which is great.
A. B.
Stopped here for lunch while visiting Belfast for the first time. Loved the ambiance inside, and service and food were excellent. They also have of of the carved Game of Thrones doors (carved into a fallen tree from the Dark Hedges), and access to an amazing courtyard of murals out back. So many reasons to visit - well worth it.
A. W.
Nice bar and staff are helpful. This is also the location of the Game of thrones number 10 door. A must see.
a. w.
excellent Guinness, and very friendly staff. the barman knew what my tipple was before i spoke. impressive. I'll be back.
D. M.
Awesome pub in the heart of Belfast.
Great atmosphere and good beer. Live music was excellent too.
If it's your thing there is a game of thrones door in the main bar.
The most stunning part is the courtyard/beer garden. It is enclosed on all sides by high walls which have all been covered in the most amazing murals (well it is Belfast). Stunning!
M. W.
This street is very beautiful and a lot of bars
Y. G.
What a find ! Went looking for the Game of Thrones door, found an amazing pub with a great courtyard as well ! Super friendly staff. Great Guinness. If in Belfast, I strongly recommend you pop in too. You won't be disappointed I promise.
N. H.
Very atmospheric pub with lovely decor, especially the door the one and only (non-gendered) toilet. Very limited selection of alcohol, there was only one beer on draft the last time I was there. Good venue to hold private events. Feels like an adjunct to the main Duke of York bar and a second class one at that.
C. D.
Always good for a pint. Nice interior and plenty of places to sit. There is one of the Game of Thrones doors made from the dark hedges fallen trees inside. Well worth a visit in the Cathedral Quarter.
A. S.
Lovely bar, wonderful staff
R. P.
Nice decor and service in a good location
K. R.
Amazing bar with great hospitality, check out their court yard.
C. R.
Stunning pub ,great staff
D. P.
Lovely place with great staff. Always smiling and impeccable customer service. Don't forget to pay attention to one of the Game of Thrones doors and also the Belfast murals outside.
S. O.
What a showcase, a jewel in the heart of Belfast. Willie always does his best to give his patrons a treat. Perfect establishment with lush decor, food always fine quality and excellent selection of imbibememts
R. T.
Great place with great street art.
J. S.
Excellent pub in heart of Cathedral Quarter Belfast and oposite the also recommended larger Duke of York. Oak paneling and old-school distillery mirrors in a traditional setting. Good place to yarn with the mates.
R. W.
Customer service wasn't great at the start but improved. Tall, dark, handsome bouncer was a lovely man.
K. H.
Came here because they have one of the Game of Thrones doors. Loved the pub, beautiful decor and friendly staff. My husband enjoyed his Guinness too
M. K.
Friendly staff, great food and super interesting decor. They also have a Game of Thrones door, so you can't really go wrong. I would highly recommend it.
O. C.
It was a nice big bar with lots of room but didn't have much atmosphere in it. It shared an outside area with the Duke of York which was fab. Not very cosy and didn't find the staff friendly, I wouldn't be rushing back
M.
I had a great night in THE DARK HORSE at a private function,food and drinks served by professional staff. Check out the art in the courtyard a funny look at Norn Ireland yesterdays good and bad.
J. C.
Excellent bar in Cathedral Quarter. Nice food. Excellent staff
A. D.
Great hearty atmosphere and live music. However often packed so can be hard to get a seat/drink but NOT to be mistaken for poor service like some other busy bars
m. T.
My wife daughter and myself loved this place. The food was great and the staff was even better. I would recommend this place to everybody for the food atmosphere and great people. Thank you for your hospitality
P. L.
I stopped in here regularly for a takeaway coffee for which they have a nice rewards system. The staff are exceptionally friendly, which always made me return due to their great customer service and attitude!
G. B.
Staff are friendly, helpful and great service. Lots of interesting articles to look at, including the Game of Thrones door. The toilet is worth a visit.
R. A.
A fabulous addition to the Due of York. Great set up and furnishing. Leads out to the best kept beer garden in Belfast. Rory.
A.
Needs more than one toilet on site. More down the street doesn't quite cut it. There was a queue and the place wasn't anywhere near busy. Otherwise, a beautiful venue.
緣.
Went for lunch, friendy staff , good coffee, beautiful atmosphere.
R. H.
Love the courtyard/outside smoking area.Inside they do a very good pint of the black stuff,very spacious with plenty of seats available
R. N.
Only has one single toilet between everyone. The toilet door is pretty special though, as it’s carved with a Game of Thrones theme, and the wood is from a fallen Dark Hedges tree.
S. R.
Great food and nice and quick. Seating here would be great
S. L.
Excellent service by the staff, particularly Stuart who gave lots of good suggestions! Also has a GoT door! Would recommend!
S. T.
It's fine, quiet spot. But there are whiskey ads everywhere and they don't sell anything except beer and wine.
K. N. (.
lots of space, inside as well as out, nice vibe, good service, nice live music... was there for a private party, so can't comment about the prices... but it was a good experience!
A. W.
Great food. Friendly and welcoming staff. Lovely surroundings and of course the Game of Thrones door for the Thronies 😀
M. K.
Nice decor, cathedral quarter prices mind, not a vast amount of selection drinks wise, I could take it or leave it.
J. K.
Beautiful little bar in middle of Belfast with spacious outside seating, staff wonderful, will definitely pay another visit.
J. M.
Great venue in a great location. Lots of history and character. Brilliant atmosphere relaxed, friendly and intimate.

Decent pub - I visited during the day but have to visit at night to see if it’s the real deal. Deducted a star as I was initially overcharged then when I queried it was corrected
T. S. Z. M.
Dark horse is exactly that as you will not be disappointed with the craic. Type of place you meet your mate you hadn't seen in six years or your future wife
J. M.
Great pub and great food one of the best I have tried so far.

Must see the murals in the back courtyard! Stop in for a pint and relax on a bench. Went midday so it was empty but I’d imagine it gets packed at night.

(Translated) The restaurant is very nice and the staff is helpful and friendly. We had a quick lunch with two fantastic beers. Behind the room has access to a court with fantastic murals that alone are worth a visit to the area. For GOT fans, the venue has acquired one of the doors of the famous TV series.
(Original)
Il locale è molto curato ed il personale è disponibile e simpatico. Abbiamo fatto un pranzo veloce gustando due fantastiche birre. Dietro al locale si accede ad una corte con dei fantastici murales che da soli valgono una visita alla zona. Per i fans di GOT, il locale ha acquisito una delle porte di scena della famosa serie TV.

(Translated) The Dark Horse, Cafe, on Hill Street in Belfast, like all the cafes, pubs and other restaurants, is a warm place with a neat decoration. It would be almost necessary to tour these establishments to take advantage of what Hill Street offers
