Who we are

We know how hard you work, so we make sure you play even harder.

The Dark Horse isn’t some flashy, over-priced city lounge—we’re a local landmark for people who want a real drink and a real show.

We’re the "come as you are" destination where the beer is cold and the girls are the neighbors you wish you had. We don’t care if you’re in work boots or a blazer; once you walk through our doors, you’re part of the family. No ego, no pretense—just Sparta’s best night out, period.

Our Promise to You:

  • No Drama: We keep the energy positive and the environment professional.

  • Total Respect: We treat our guests like legends and our staff like family.

  • Unforgettable Nights: We provide the stage, the shots, and the talent—you provide the memories.

"Pull up a stool, place your bets, and see why everyone in Sparta eventually finds their way to The Dark Horse. We’re untamed, unpretentious, and waiting for you."
