Belfast is blessed with some of best pubs anywhere, and the Dark Horse is definitely among them. Like so many pubs in Belfast, its interior is a beautiful Victorian building with wood panelling, plush chairs, polished brass, ornate mirrors, and fancy chandeliers. Also notable is its back courtyard which features tongue-and-cheek murals of Irish history in a way that only Belfast could do. Moreover, the staff are very warm and friendly. The selection of beers is alright, and they do of course serve the black stuff. Unsurprisingly, the pub is a little expensive by Belfast standards, but actually the costs are decent by UK standards, and I couldn't recommend this (or most any pub in the cathedral quarter) enough

This is a wee gem hidden away in commercial court. Lovely atmosphere with craft and speciality beers . Also home to door 10 in the Game of Thrones collection.

We didn't eat here but we had a great wee night. Friendly vibe from staff and clientele. The courtyard alone is well worth a visit. Ohh and a huge plus for me ,the seating is so comfortable. No rickety stools 🥰

Quirky, unique, great bar staff and door staff. 1st visit. Welcomed and seats provided. Great outdoor space (weather permitting). Perhaps not the fullest range of beers & spirits, but sure to find something suitable.

What a cool place. The murals in the courtyard are just amazing. Great service and right in the middle of all the action.

The Dark horse is a beautifully decorated pub along the way as I just happened to pass. It caught my with its name the Dark horse. It’s got a yard or a beer garden as it is called a really nice place to be when you are in Belfast near the St. Anne’s square or the cathedral in the city.

Very welcoming woman on door security. Made us feel very welcome and wished us well when leaving. Friendly bar staff. On a very lively Saturday night, this place still had a few seats and we could even have a conversation as the music was not too loud. Enjoyed watching the world going by towards the Duke of York, taking photos and selfies of the illuminated umbrellas.

Beautifully decorated bar, with a really brilliant courtyard/beer garden, full of interesting and funny murals, the Guinness is really good and the service was the highlight, the guys were funny, friendly and made us feel at home from the moment we walked in.

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!

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.
