Dark Horse Tavern

This place is phenomenal. We were in the area and wanted to try something new. Looked up places nearby and this one came up. Right from walking in the door we were greeted with a smile and seated right away. Our waiter promptly came over with menus and water. We also got fresh bread with seasonings and parmesan and oil on the table to go with it. Our appetizer was the poutine which came with roast beef and was so incredibly tender. We also got the dip sandwich and the short rib grilled cheese. Both were amazing and loaded with meat. We could only eat half our sandwich before we were full. Everything came out quickly and our cups were never empty. The service from everyone was the best I've had in a long time and the food was phenomenal. We'll be enjoying our leftovers and definitely be coming back.

Really great meal, attentive service and cozy atmosphere!

Omg!We were absolutely thrilled to find this hidden gem,food was flavorful and portions were big,also satisfying. Service was amazing and the staff was knowledgeable. Absolutely taking our friends and family to try this place.Highly recommend!!

Four of us went for a birthday lunch today 7/2024 and WOW , amazing food and service. There is nothing negative to say of this gem of a place. Our waitress and waiter were so attentive. Truly wish there were more places like Dark Horse Tavern around this area. Please don't stop with the great food and service. Oh, the food purchased: short rib grilled cheese, RB dip , haddock fried lunch, and a HUGE plate of poutine. All were excellent portions and took what was left home. Even bought a raspberry /chocolate cheesecake home for my husband. We will certainly be back.

Tried this place with a friend a few weeks ago. Staff very friendly and attentive, atmosphere relaxing. Amazing old fashioned drinks. Will be coming back.

Did a take out order for the short rib Mac and cheese. The sandwich was outstanding, and all of the staff were very nice. Also, very efficient. My food was ready in 10 minutes. I definitely recommend checking out the Dark Horse!

Stopped at this place on a whim while out in Syracuse for a work trip and I was NOT disappointed. The pot roast poutine was the perfect mix of fries, gravy, meat, and cheese and was a great portion. My coworker's short rib grilled cheese was piled high. Service was awesome and definitely not what I was expecting from a pub. The crew there is attentive and helpful, and made sure we were taken care of the entire time. If you're in the area, definitely stop by!

Great food at a very decent price. Beer also good. But what stands out is the staff, all very professional (and good looking, which is only a plus). Also thanks to their regular Tim who gave me good tips on what to do in the area that evening (camping so didn't feel like staying in my tent all afternoon and evening). I really had a good time despite the rainy day, thank you all 🙂
