Usually it’s nice. But: Quality of service depends on the day and who’s there, especially if you are female. I got a drink and some food. First the chauvinist server took the condiments away while I was still eating and without asking if I mind, to bring it to another customer. Considering the size of the place I would assume there’s more than one set?!! Or he could at least ask! Then he asked every couple and every male person around me if they want another drink except me —- because I guess I’m just a woman alone in a bar on bro bar time night. Then I ask if I can tap my bill and server rips the device out of my hand a second after he gives it to me and gets upset when I say that I’m not finished. When he sees I didn’t tip much he gets upset and can barely hide it but doesnt ask what the issue is. I should not have tipped at all for the bad service! Finally he starts trying to mansplain me how the tapping device works step by step like I’m five years old. Very unpleasant unprofessional experience tonight!

Food was EXTREMELY OVERPRICED, dry and bland. Would not recommend. Will not return.

Currently here. This is not a sports bar. This is a trivia bar with screens and 2 different games split between them, -and classic rock as the audio. A star because people are cool, and a star because the food is supposedly good, which I will see. Come for the trivia and classic rock music, -and a glance at the current games. -Could be 5 stars for you. As a sports fan I'm going to find a sports bar after the drink I ordered.

Rare Full English Done (Almost) Right
It’s almost impossible to find a proper Full English breakfast in Brooklyn anymore. But Black Horse Pub doesn’t just attempt it — they nearly nail it.
I sat outside at a packed pub on a rainy day. The staff immediately wiped down the table and helped me connect to Wi-Fi — even typing the password in for me when I had trouble. That kind of service is unheard of these days.
The wings were excellent — perfectly cooked, with a sweet-spicy sauce that didn’t overload on sugar. Drinks (Magners and a whiskey shot) arrived quickly, even during a full house.
Now, the Full English.
Eggs: perfect.
Mushrooms: deeply flavorful.
Black pudding: absolutely nailed it — earthy, balanced, rustic in the best way.
Tomatoes and beans tied it all together into that rare kind of rich, savory balance that only a proper English breakfast can deliver.
Only misstep? The sausage. Not a real British banger — more like a basic breakfast link. It knocks it down a bit. But honestly, in a borough where this dish barely exists, the effort and flavor still make it worth a strong 4.5 stars.
Would absolutely come back. Would recommend it to anyone looking for a little UK comfort food in NYC.

The place it’s beautiful. If we're talking about service, it's horrible. I went to watch soccer because it was the final. I was there for half an hour waiting for a waiter to take my order for food and a beer... there were three waiters and the manager. They walked right by me and it seemed like they didn't even have ears. If you hire students to work for your restaurant bar, make sure you train them well... otherwise, you'll lose customers... The good thing that exists: Black Horse Pub, where they really are attentive to their customers. Sorry but we have to be real…

Had to leave after 5 minutes of super loud commercials from a game I couldn’t even see. Great space, poorly managed

Food here is always delicious. Great place to watch a soccer match, very spacious and can host a large crowd easily.

Great place to go to catch a game with friends. The food and drinks are very good! I was there recently with a large group (10) to watch a Knicks game and Lorenzo did not miss a beat! Some of our group were first timers, but it won’t be their last!

Delicious! The apps came out with the entree but the food was soooo good- I wasn't mad at it. My party and I got the spicy burger, regular burger and chicken wings. Delicious!!! Would def come back. Great if you're into sports! They have a calendar of what games they play so you can support your team!
