| Darkhorse Tavern is located in the Historic Sixth Ward of Houston at 2207 Washington Ave.
Darkhorse has been transformed into a comfortable neighborhood bar with reasonable priced drinks and a great jukebox. Built in the 1920's as A&P grocery store, later turned cleaners and then an art studio, Darkhouse has now found new life as a watering hole complete with the original pressed tin ceilings, mica lamps and an oak bar that adds to the original historical feeling of the period. |

Nice NORMAL bar for the non valley girl types
This is a good old fashioned type bar - what a bar was meant to be. A nice quiet non meat market spot to relax, let your guard down and sip a nice adult beverage. When busy service can be slow but a little patience goes a long way. Jukebox is great, pizzas are simple but good -cures the munchies. I would much rather relax here than go grind it up the street for higher priced drinks. I am with miguelUT, people like Htowngirl should stay away - we like it that way!

Yes, Yes, YES!!
I have to have a little chuckle at Htowngirl -- she is the precise type of customer that you NEVER see at Darkhorse Tavern, which is one reason why this place is so great. I love drinking cold beer and playing darts, and just chilling with some friends in a relaxed atmosphere, which is exactly what this place offers. I would urge the young Washington crowd to stay away from this place... this is not the place to order a flaming doctor pepper or a "Washington Apple," whatever that is... But if you want to watch some TV, drink some cold beer, take a shot or two that doesn't have more than two words in its name, and play some competitive darts, this place is right up there with Rudyards.

No, No, NO!!!!
We visited this place on a very non-busy Sunday evening. The bartender looked annoyed as soon as we walked in and he had to get up from playing his game. I ordered 2 regular shots from him...anyone who drinks shots knows what a washington apple is. His reply to me (the customer!) was "I don't make stupid sh*t like that"....REALLY?!?! You're a freakin bartender ! WOW! I googled the recipe for him and made him make them anyways then paid my tab...which was $15 for a beer and the 2 shots...and got the hell out of there. i have never felt so unwelcome in a bar before and will never EVER return. Save your self-respect and go to on e of the million other bars in the area. This one is nothing special what-so-ever.

Beware! They don't pay attention to your bar tab
2 of my friends and I went there one night and we had holds on our debit cards for twice (and me--three) times the amount of money we spent in there. Also, when you open a tab, they make you sign this slip saying you agree to pay whatever they charge you. That should tip you off that they take liberty with your check card. It's just an average bar with a tiny dance floor. Nothing special.

User review by pattytrish
Great laid back bar with excellent bar staff. Play darts of take a board game onto the new patio in back. Eclectic juke box. Nice scotch selection for such a small bar and don't miss Sunday-special bloody marys!

Cool Place to hang out
Very cool place near Heights and downtown, easy parking, nice comfortable place to hang out. And the drinks are cheap! At happy hour I got a Lone Star for $1 and plenty of free bar snacks. Good juke box, darts and Golden Tee. Seems like a cool crowd too, not the see and be seen kooks that hang out downtown. I'll be back.
