We were on a road trip and randomly picked this place from a google search. We were pleasantly surprised when we walked in. It's very open with tall ceilings. Lots of TVs on. We were greeted as soon as we walked in and sat at the bar. The bar is pretty big. Our bartender was busy, but still attentive. For food, we got chili, wings with Korean pepper and wild honey bbq sauces, beef tacos, pulled pork with provolone on a long roll and honey siracha chicken grilled cheese on Texas toast. Everything we had was great. All made to order. We would definitely come back if we are in the area again. read more

Not ar all what we expected- but better. My taco salad/chili was excellent and husband liked his chicken parm. The food was plentiful and the yuenging on tap was good. A gem in the middle of nowhere with great prices as well. read more

This place has gotten progressively worse through the years. You name it, food, service, attitude.. Will never be coming back to this place again. read more

Went here for a few drinks very friendly bar good music . Enjoy the time we spend there . We will be back.

I've been here a few times, but only for drinks. The drink prices are reasonable; I'm always shocked how little my bill is after a few beers. I've had the same bartender the last 3 times and she's always great. Although I've never eaten, I've seen many other dishes being served and the food always looks delicious. The bar and restaurant are always clean, and the restrooms are adequate. Overall a nice place to kill an hour or two if you're in the area. read more

Possibly the most well rounded tavern in the area. BH is always a blast to go to. They have cheap drinks and some of the best bar food you can get. The tots are amazing and the food specials always look so good. The crowd is usually vibrant and noisy, with a wide variety of ages. Not the best for watching sports games but it does the trick. The service is decent, usually just cause it's slammed. Glad they opened the doors ago. Look forward to returning. read more

Can't find a more local pub than the BHT! Note that it is cash only, but happy hours are well worth the trip and the nachos and burgers went over pretty well too! read more

Inexpensive food, really cheap beer. Good looking servers. Can't beat it for the price. Patrons like myself are a little rough around the edges. read more

Definitely the town watering hole, with Philly fans (as it should be). Yes this is a dive bar, but not the type of bar where out-of-towners regret their decision. Black Horse is clean and non-smoking. Women's bathroom is maintained well and the regulars seem to have enough self-respect to keep it that way. The walls aren't dark green or anything drabby so it's not a depressing place. A few quick facts about this particular location - Huge bar with very little table seating (I'd say there's about 4 small tables). The bar itself is pretty massive, I mean, it takes up most of the building. It's not the best idea to come here on a crowded evening with a group. Due to said lack of table seating, there is no waitstaff. Food and drinks must be ordered directly at the bar. Hopefully there will be room to squeeze into to make an order. The bartenders are pretty much on top of their game when it's busy and can make their rounds at a good speed. Plenty of flat-screen TVs to watch sporting events on. One pool table available for those who could care less about sports. The parking lot is small. Consider walking if appropriate. Rather a big menu for a dive bar. Prices are very respectable and the food is great! I recommend the GYRO. read more

I came here for a friend's birthday last night. She lives in Phoenixville and I trust her opinions when it comes to food and drinks. She raves about Black Horse Tavern and comes here a few times a month. We were not disappointed! They had a drink menu with specialty drinks themed for the upcoming award shows. Everyone enjoyed their meals. I had a chicken BLT wrap with no T and it was delicious. My fiance and I split waffle fries and they were nice and crispy. The drinks were good with the right amount of alcohol. We were all impressed at how colorful they looked with all of the different liquors and soda/juices were in them. The staff was friendly and quick. I would definitely come back when I'm in the area again. read more

It's a sports bar with good, cheap food. Although the clientele can look a bit intimidating, everyone is friendly. Don't go with a large group, as there is only seating at the bar. There are a couple of high-tops and one table, but that's it. Draft beer selection is mostly standard stuff but you can get some big-beers from the small cooler, behind the bar. You'll need to ask about availability, as nothing is listed on the menu and it's difficult to see what's actually in the fridge. Try going on either a Sat. or Sun. between 2-4 for their great happy hour specials. You'll be happy that you did! read more

I recently moved outside of the center of Phoenixville so had to try this place out. My husband and I ate the bar the other night. I got the broccoli chicken flatbread - it was huge! I love that it was actually really flat bread with crispy edges. They didn't skimp on topping either - will definitely stop in again! read more

Black Horse Tavern - Broccoli Chicken Flatbread - Pubs Near Me - Phoenixville, Pennsylvania

Trashy, awesome, divey, delicious, sloppy, friendly, predictable, surprising, ordinary, extraordinary. Somehow, someway, the Black Horse embodies all of this. Some of the most bizarre moments in recent memory have happened here, for better or worse. Overall it's a good time. Food is actually very, very good... and the kitchen is open until 1:30. Against my better judgement, I love this place. read more

Ask me a few weeks ago and I would've given this place maybe 2.5-3 stars. But after today I definitely won't be returning. Took advantage of their Saturday happy hour for wings... I ordered 20 and my boyfriend ordered 20. I mean why not, they're half off. Little did we know they have some new policy for happy hour; no food ordered as a happy hour special can be taken out. So when I asked for a box for the 14 wings I didn't eat, I was told no. Then the two bartenders seemed irritated that I had even asked - as if I should've known that already or like that a normal policy. Now, all the happy hours I've been to, all the restaurants I've dined at (from 5 star to dive bar) and all the cities I've been in - I have NEVER heard of such a thing. We pay for food but can't take it home if you don't eat all. Absolutely absurd. If the bartender had explained that when we first sat down, we obviously would've ordered less food. But I guess that would've required too much effort in customer service. I realize you get what you pay for, been to black horse many times when I'm in the mood for cheap drafts and greasy inexpensive food. But after today, it's not worth it. I will not be returning! Sucks for the owners, they lose out on great business because of rude staff and silly "policies". read more

Well, I have been coming to this Black Horse location quite frequently since the Fairview Village location closed. Usually here on a Sunday afternoon with my wife. We both really like the Black Horse. Good drinks, a surprisingly interesting beer selection that includes a few craft beer. On weekends they have a Happy Hour from 2-4 and the special HH menu offers some great tasting food at some nice prices. The Bartenders are quick to take your order even when the place can get a liitle, well pretty busy actually. Shannon and Beth on Sundays rock! They really make customers feel welcome. Really like this place. Check it out! read more

Pleasantly surprised about sums it up. I couldn't believe after all my years of living in Phoenixville, this spot would open back up...and with such cleanliness. I have yet to sample any menu items, but I will say they have a nice spread of beers for not being a craft beer establishment. And the Take Out stuff is also pretty decent too. Stone Victory, Chimay are all wins in my book. I know I'll go back and possibly up the Stars give or take food selection. read more

Best dive bar in Phoenixville! Kitchen is open late and the best food is made in there. Fair prices and a great tap selection. Go in and see Mark and Adrienne. They are the best! read more

Black Horse Tavern - a person holding a bottle of beer - Pubs Near Me - Phoenixville, Pennsylvania

I can't believe I am just now finally trying the black horse tavern. This place has such a relaxing, homey and casual vibe. Service is always fast and everyone is super nice from staff to customers. The food is amazing!!! its mostly typical bar food in addition to platters and specials so it has its own unique touch. Love it! read more

Good times shooting pool, karaoke and hanging with friends. Amazing food always and the staff is the best!

Bit down on a 3 inch bone in my chicken cheesesteak and the bartender's reply was "I'm glad you didn't choke." Clearly, I did not eat another bite but was still charged. read more

The prices for the drinks are the best!! The food is above average bar food. The bartenders are very nice.

I love this place. I don't care. I love it!!!!!!!!!! Seriously, the happy hour specials are crazy cheap. Don't stay after it gets dark.. the place gets weird. Great place to stop in for an extremely cheap beer and cheap wings from 4-6 on weekdays or 2-4 on weekends. Don't have high expectations, order a beer, and you'll have a great time. read more

Food is always good! Especially late night..... cheese steak quesadilla.... can't go wrong !

Well food is very good but service not good. Sat at table no one came over so husband went up to bar to order food. Ordered off of happy hour menu. Four people, ordered 4 burgers, large fry, 20 wings, fried zucchini. Each had 2 beers. Only time anyone came to table was to bring food. Had to go ask for ketchup,salt,pepper. Go up to bar to pay bill and ask for container for food. Nope it was happy hour food so can't take left over with you. What kind of rule is that? I can see order take out but come on. We ate there!!!!!! My husband said wings were happy hour price? Bartender said yes but she would gladly charge us regular price then we could take them. That is the craziest rule ever. Paid the bill. Wrapped the left overs in napkins and walked out with food. Felt like I was stealing their food. That place is wacked! read more

I went into the Black Horse Tavern with some friends for some beers and burgers. The food and drinks were fine, but the bar is a bit cramped. The regulars are all on the older side and usually over-served. There's a distinct feeling that you could get stabbed at any moment there. read more

I absolutely love their chicken gyro! I always get the sweet potato fries too. Great place for a drink, pool and some food.

Went out on Saturday night (2/28/15) for dinner n drinks with my girl, and the team of Mark and Angela we're hosting. It was pretty busy, but we received EXCELLENT service - end to end. Ice water always refilled/refreshed. Drinks cold and timely. Food orders correct; prepared, delivered and promptly devoured. Vanessa- Chicken Stir Fry. Except for her dislike of baby corn, this dish rocks. Me- Pulled Pork w Provolone n Long Hots. Special#4. Killer as always. Thanks Jimmy(chef), Mark and Angela. read more

Local watering hole, but does it right. I have only been here for lunch but food is good for what It is. I think it's one of the most reasonably priced establishments around. Don't come here expecting to have an amazing culinary experience, but if you want consistent bar food at reasonable prices you expectations will be met. read more

Great food, nice selection of beer for a local bar, staff were friendly and the bar was clean. It's nice place to watch the games, as they have multiple TV's on every wall. Overall, It's a nice local hangout to frequent. read more

Love this place. The bartenders take the time to really personalize your experience. Even when they screw up your checks. They do everything to remedy problems. Great time. read more

Great food, awesome bartenders and normal people at the bar. I don't get to go out to lunch often but when I do this is my spot everytime. I've tried every other bar in town, don't waste your time with all the yuppie, over priced places downtown. read more

This place is awful, I have been here numerous times and it gets worse every time. I have had been charged for someone else's tab 3 times, given someone esles charge card AND ID at least 4 different occasions. The wait staff are extremely rude, god forbid you ask for anything other than a beer. The prices are excellent but not worth having to watch the bartenders slam a cheesesteak instead of making a drink you asked for 5 minutes ago. read more

This is one of those places where old people with no self-respect are hammered and on the verge of blackout well before you get out of work, and the bartenders know that this is not a problem but rather the purpose of the establishment. Beer selection sucks, and the wings are awful. If you just want some mozzerella sticks and a Yuengling and are entertained by people making a scene of their own drunkenness at a HAPPY HOUR, then this is the place for you. The prices are as cheap as they come, and by the time you leave you will wish they were higher. read more

STAY AWAY from the ham zep.... unless you like bologna.... so the app wants more description... so if it's togo, you pay extra for the fixings normally served in-house. read more

I've only ever gone to this place 3 or 4 times, and that was so I could watch some playoff hockey in a bar atmosphere. For not being a sports bar, Black Horse did the job pretty well. All the tv's but 2 or 3 had the game on, the place was comfortably packed, and they had the game going through the speakers. Beer wasn't very expensive at all, and even though the place was packed, I never had to wait more than a minute or so to get another drink. I had the wings a few times and they were actually really damn good. So good even, that when I don't feel like eating there, I've gotten wings to go. If you're looking for classy this place is not it, but its a good time all the same. read more

I don't particularly care for the type of crowd this bar is attracting. Too many bikers and drunks. The food is bland and greasy and good luck trying to find a place to sit. Very difficult to get a bartenders attention. read more

This place is awesome. The bartenders are very friendly. Great menu for a bar. A great price as well.

Decent and convenient, right by home. Love that the kitchen is open until 1:30 am and the food is good and worth the money! The staff is usually very nice and remember me. Not a huge fan of the parking there, as it sometimes interrupts the neighborhood. Also, although the staff is decent, the owners behind the scenes are not so nice and respectful. read more

food used to be great, has declined over the past year to "often lousy" depending on who is cooking. Have had two meals in the past two months that were cold! For me that is unacceptable, chicken croquettes and stew. Bar staff is good, food is not! read more

Haven't been to or even heard of this bar before today but the food is awesome and the prices are great. Bar is cray cray big. But the karaoke/pool table area gets a little cramped but no major gripes at all. Will come back over and over again. read more
