BlackHorse Espresso & Bakery

There are several empty tables outside with no chairs. We could not sit so we left without ordering coffee. It seems there are less and less chairs each time we come.

Nice people and great atmosphere!

Solid locally owned coffee shop

Everything is so delicious and the coffee is so good every time I've gone and the customer service is wonderful and friendly

WoW! I went in for a Decaf drip coffee and walked away with THE BEST Decaf Gingerbread Espresso drink I've ever had. Luckily, I was in the mood to treat myself. The barista crafted a perfectly balanced, creamy and sweet treat for me. Thank you, I'll be back!

Stopped in for a passionfruit iced tea while visiting SLO. So good, especially with the summer heat! Very friendly guy behind the bar.

Their coffee is delicious and their pastries are incredible!! I had the pumpkin muffin and the lemon-blueberry muffin and I absolutely loved them. Very friendly and helpful staff as well. :)

A great place to share excellent coffee and conversation with a friend. Love the outdoor tables. Inside tables are comfy. Coffee is delicious. My visit was later in the day so the selection of pastries was a little bit sparse, but the chocolate croissant was the size of my head and wonderful.

Yummy breakfast items, bakery and coffee. There was a line but it moved in a reasonable pace. The food was good and the double vanilla latte was sorely needed.

This place has really good coffee and pastries! I've tried their chocolate croissant and lemon loaf. My favorite coffee is their dark roast ?

I understand that iced coffee is typically coffee brewed beforehand, chilled and iced. Not at BlackHorse! At least when I went, my “iced coffee” was hot coffee poured over ice. The guy dumped out some of the coffee-water mixture and put more hot coffee in the cup. For $3.50 I got a cup of watery, lukewarm coffee. Not sure if this is general practice at BlackHorse or if it was this fellas first day on the job. Genuinely felt like I got scammed. I do not write very many reviews but the people gotta hear about this.

It was a nice visit, the establishment was quiet, despite that my order was mixed up, but it was still good.
