The Dark Horse

We came to dark horse for my mums birthday dinner, while the food was good and the staff were friendly, they wait time was quite long considering it wasn’t overly busy. The food took about 45min to come out which is probably about standard for platters, however I ordered a mojito and it took over 20minutes to be made! Overall the food was good, just really long wait times for simple things.

Very very nice staff always greet me and welcome me there good good friendly nice staff with good menu at reasonable price

Good place to have a drink and watch some sport matches. Foods are generally pretty good and venue is nice and clean.

It has gone downhill since we last visited 3 weeks ago. The staff used to be really friendly and attentive. All we got today was a surly attitude from the bar staff, especially when I asked for my short measure pint to be topped up. Shame as it used to be a regular haunt. Won't be rushing back anytime soon.

It used to be dog-friendly but not any more. Not sure if there is anything else changed. We used to like going there and enjoy the steaks. I’m not sure if I’ll go back and try.

For a pub the food here is 10/10 have tried almost everything off the menu and not one dish was disappointing. Big portions and good price. Always fresh and delicious. Great spot to watch sports and have a drink. Even during busy times like UFC staff are always very efficient.

Surprisingly good pub food. We were in Auckland down from the North and we hadn't eaten all day.
I saw the sign which said Bar and Grill and thought that it couldn't be too bad. It was surprisingly good food. It is a bar, so no ambience unless you like that, but the food was really good.

I had a hamburger and chips. The hamburger was huge! The meat was very good. My husband had venison sliders which he loved. We also enjoyed a pint of cider.

All in all a good place to grab lunch or dinner.

Staff are extremely friendly and the service has always been second to none. Whenever there is an issue (which isnt often) it is sorted instantly, apologetically and with the minimum of fuss. Great food and atmosphere at an extremely good price point.

An ok place for a drink either lunchtime or after work close to the northern motorway. The beer tap selection includes the cheaper Boundary Road, Wild Buck, Asahi & Carlsberg brands. Has a decent TAB lounge, an ATM, a pool table, big screens for watching sports, and about 8 pokie machines that seem to pay ok. The staff are nice and friendly and has an overall good atmosphere. Haven't tried the food but looks ok.

Staffs are friendly. Above average quality food also reasonable price. They do lunch special ($18.50 or $21.50 with drinks) and daily special everyday.
I love their seafood/meat platter ($39.50 to share between two or three) and the Wild Buck lager (very cheap when you pop in at their Happy Hour)! It's one of my favourite place to hang out with friends after work.

Wow just called in on the off chance it was as good as the reviews.
Got the lunch special ribs.
Great ribs and a beer for under $25!
Will be back. And recommend you do too.

Delicious food, big portions and fair price. We had the calamari and the ribs, both were amazing! Very friendly staff as well:)

Have been here a few times, good range of beer on tap and decent food. Lots of screens showing various sports channels. Had a really good steak on last visit but kitchen closed before 9pm so couldn't get a dessert. Location a bit out of the way and not much parking

My calamari and salad was a good portion and delicious. Noise was not overwhelming and tables were well spaced

Favourite place ever! Nothing better than this place! Special the food soooo good! And they are pet friendly

Alright for a sports bar, though some of the design inside means you can't see a screen, and some TV's were off (maybe broken?). Food was reasonably priced, big portions, good fish & chips & fairly quick service on a very busy night.

We had my son's engagement party here.
Great location.perfect size venue.yummy food and staff were awesome and couldn't be more accommodating. Would definitely recommend.

Great spot for 5 or 6 pints on drive home from work. Loads of TVs for all sport lovers and a TAB. Staff fantastic too.

Recently had a 21st event here, the whole staff were very accomodating and the food was delicious! Even in the preparations they were very insightful with helping us with the details.

Excellent beer, food, staff and atmosphere. Comes with a pool table and a few gambling games if that's what you're interested in.
