The Black Horse on Friargate is the most distinctive Victorian pub in Preston — a Grade II-listed corner pub with an intact tiled interior, an island bar, and a long-established reputation for cask ale. The narrow public bar runs the length of the building; the snug at the back is small enough to make even a quiet weekday feel busy.
Robinson's beers are the regulars on the pumps. The pub does no food beyond bar snacks; it is a drinker's pub in the best sense.
