Delicious food in a laid back place. Staff are super friendly. Plenty of vegetarian/vegan and GF options for tasty treats. New surprises every time I've been in.

We pulled into Dark Horse for a bite to a eat and coffee on our way through and the service and food were unreal, so much so I'm here to leave a review with the others that have also had the same great experience. The staff were prompt with our order and understanding of my wife's requests for her specific coffee combination ha, keep it up legends, will be back and highly recommend!

I had a small breakfast here. Good atmosphere, good croissants, and apparently people like the coffee so well that they call and order takeaway coffees on their way to day’s challenges.
