Reviews
This place is excellent! Great location, great food, great staff and great vanilla slices! We have bee here several times and the place is always welcoming. Incidentally, the vanilla slices weigh in at 500 grams!
Lovely food, amazeballs scones, incredible looking Vanilla Slices (which would be a meal on their own!), very good coffee and lovely staff in a rustic setting. Recommended.
I can't comment about the food as I arrived after the kitchen closed, but the pastries looked fresh and inviting. The cafe has plenty of outdoor seating, which is perfect during the warmer months as the indoor seating is very limited. The building and furniture are a bit on the poor site, but this adds to the more authentic country feeling that the Dark Horse radiates and the friendliness of the staff reflects this perfectly.
Very lovely place and lovely staff.
Simple and convinient.
Walked in as it was on my way. However will definitely go again.
If you love dried tomatoes, consider buying a jar from there. Expensive but worth the money paid
The Dark Horse- what a perfect venue to celebrate our mum’s 91st birthday last Sunday.
We all thoroughly enjoyed eating delicious food while sitting on the deck at the front of this cosy, rustic and welcoming cafe. Where we were sitting felt like our own private party.
But what stands out at the Dark Horse is the excellent service by the staff.
You can tell they have a passion for hospitality. Everyone was happy, friendly and attentive.
You all made the day so special for mum and our family.
Thanks for looking after us.
Please advise customers to order at the front, however an hour wait after ordering is also a bit too long. Drinks came promptly and coffee was good. Food was OK but the wait in a tight table already had spoiled the experience.
Such a lovely place along the way to Yarra valley. So many handmade soaps, wines and gin available as well. The staff are really friendly, and the coffee is good! Nothing more you can ask for. Would definitely go again ✨
Great place, cozy space, Loved the live music. It was busy, our food took almost 1 hour to arrive and We noticed few tables got their foods before us even though they arrived much later then us.
however I was disappointed with the sauté veggies as it seems to be from frozen packs and the chicken from the burger was a bit dry.
we enjoyed the hospitality but unfortunately the food didn't satisfy our personal liking.
