AT THE DARK HORSE

After 12 years slinging street‑food favourites from our much‑loved vintage Airstream at festivals and events across the UK, Shakey’s Diner has officially landed in Bristol.

You’ll now find us cooking at The Dark Horse on Church Road bringing Shakey’s bold, indulgent diner food to one of East Bristol’s best-loved pubs. Same big flavours, same soul‑food roots (just with cold pints waiting at the bar).

This marks a big step for us. After our first unforgettable Bristol pop aboard the 6 o’clock Gin Glassboat, stepping into The Dark Horse kitchen is an exciting next chapter. We’re proud to be part of The Dark Horse community and excited to give locals a new reason to drop in midweek or linger longer at the weekend.

What’s on the menu?

From stacked burgers and loaded hot dogs to dirty fries, wings and sharable sides, the Shakey’s menu at The Dark Horse is all about big flavours and proper comfort food. Expect house-made sauces, indulgent toppings, veggie and vegan options and portions designed to be enjoyed with a pint.
