Really friendly service, didn’t have to wait too long for my toastie and it was worth it. Good portion size and great ingredients, really enjoyed it. They also do drinks and there are some seats and tables to relax and have your food/drink, recommend!

A lovely cafe with a lovely setting and very tasty almond croissants! Unfortunately when I asked, I was told they only had sourdough bread which I’m intolerant to. Though speaking to the owner later, she said they had gluten free bread and were going to try others. We will definitely go again as the staff were very friendly and I’d like to try some of the other pastries!

Coffee tastes great and great presentation , portion a bit on the smaller size for the cost but I understand as it’s in the city centre the need to complete cost wise. Looking forward to trying the rest of the menu

Wonderful place, part of Shambles Good Court/market area. Excellent people and excellent latte. Didn't have any food, but the toasties looked amazing. Note: popular ones sell out fast!

Stunning coffee and great location, right on the shambles markets, and only metres from the shambles, take time out from your Harry Potter photo expedition to head over here and charge up on a awesome cup of coffee, make sure you try some of their other wares, I had an ANZAC cookie, which was just as good as any I’ve had back home!

Such warm, welcoming customers service was given followed by the most amazing bakes! We asked for them warm, and they didn't disappoint! They also serve non dairy milk, which was fantastic. We would definitely recommend it, and we will try to make it a must go too spot every time we visit York. Thank you, guys

WOW! That’s all I can say, me and my wife shared the Special toastie which was Chicken, peppered pastrami, 3 cheese blend, rocket and garlic and chilli oil! It has to be the best toastie we’ve EVER HAD! When we next come to York we will certainly be back!

We visited dark horse espresso bar today and what a hidden gem this really is! We had the best toastie we have ever had, so glad we shared as the toasties are massive and they are certainly not shy on the fillings. Absolutely amazing service and food. Would 100% recommend!

Arguably the best coffee in York! Fabulous family run business offering fab coffee, homemade paninis, cakes and pastries. All served from a lovely horse box in the Shambles market, definitely worth a visit! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
