Welcome to the friendliest pub on the shore!

The Dark Horse is a sports bar & grill, and TAB, at the heart of the community on the North Shore, Auckland. We specialise in offering a warm welcome, exceptional dining options, a great range of drinks, and lots of fun activities throughout the week.

We have a bit of something for everyone, from sports and racing to a great night out with friends and colleagues. Add to that our quiz nights, live music, comedy events, The Dark Horse is perfect for whatever the occasion!

 

Always a good night at The Darky!

The Dark Horse is the ideal place for meeting friends or clients for lunch, after work drinks, or for just celebrating the end of the week. Packing craft beer on tap, an extensive bistro-style menu, and stellar table service into one venue is a squeeze, but we’ve managed to make room for your every need!

If you’re into sports then this is the place for you! Several large TV’s are on the walls showing various sports stations, a TAB next door and a pokies room. There is a variety of food on offer, which is a notch above the usual pub food!
