Streetlevel: Black Horse Pub Opening Soon

As previously noted by the Village Voice, the convenience store that used to occupy 568 5th Avenue in the South Slope is giving way to a new watering hole called the Black Horse Pub. According to the owners, the bar should be open "within the month." GMAP

The Black Horse pub should open around May 30th as full disclosure I am an investor.
It will be an English Pub including English breakfast on the weekends a Snday Roast ,along with Football matches shown in the mornings on the weekends as well. We actually are an official World Cup Soccer bar although I honestly have to say I don't know who gave us the official designation. Pub food will be available during other times.
The bar itself will be 33 feet long inside and has 16 taps. What exactly we have on the menu I am not entirely sure of.
lastly the internet link is blackhorsebrooklyn.com although the website is not fully built there are photos of it being built in progress althoghh they were taken about 2 weeks back.
Hope to see you soon.

Looking forward to it, mule. How English will you be? Any pull beers or will everything be tapped American style?
Posted by: slopefarm at May 11, 2009 3:45 PM
Mostly tapped american style I must admit. We will have an english cider on tap and a couple of english beers too. the truth is these days thats actually more then a pub in England has these days. I will say this. There will be a lot of English and Irish around as all the investors sans myself are from there.

Brooklyn needs a good football pub to rival Nevada Smiths in the city. Best of luck to you.
