The Dark Horse

Much like Leicester City winning the Premier League, dark horses often spring surprises.

Saddle up today’s Big Deal with The Dark Horse on Great Western Road and prepare to be surprised by just how tasty their burgers, burritos and fajitas are.

Mexican cantina

Opened a couple of months back, The Dark Horse is a Mexican bar, cantina and restaurant.

Regular live DJs add to the vibes in the evening and, when the sun is shining, the beer garden is a popular spot for a frosty one.

Burger, burrito or fajita

Check it out with today’s Big Deal.

Available Sunday to Friday, from lunch to 7pm, the offer is for two people to each have any burger, burrito or fajita plus a cocktail.

Great range of fillings

Both the burritos and fajitas have a fantastic range of fillings which include Mexican chicken, lime tiger prawns, roast veg and Mexican beans, achiote and pulled pork.

All the burgers are served on a toasted brioche bun with skinny fries and Mexican slaw. Choose between the classic beef burger; the lemon and lime chicken breast burger; the Sloppy Joe, made with pulled pork, or the sweet potato and bean burger.

Many vegetarian and vegan choices are available.

The cocktail selection includes timeless classics such as daiquiris, mojitos and margaritas alongside modern faves like the Bramble.

Happy diners

The Dark Horse has not been open for long but is already attracting positive reviews like these on its Facebook page:

‘Superb wee bar with the added bonus of sun all day! Food was great and the staff could not be more friendly!!! Please check it out it worth it!’

‘Brilliant food, delicious innovative cocktails and great service! Nice to see something new in the area with a great vibe and a hardworking team. Hope it does well.’

The perfect introduction to The Dark Horse, this offer would be ideal for lunch, brunch, an after work bite to eat or dinner before catching a show at the nearby Stand comedy club.

Take a ride on The Dark Horse and see where your night ends up.
