The VISION

OWNERS

ANDRE DU CHAUSSEE // TIM O’LEARY


Tim and Dre always dreamed of pursuing an endeavor together, but nothing worth anything comes easy. Through decades of friendship and many attempts at entrepreneurship, they didn’t realize they were gaining knowledge and sharpening skills for when their vision would become crystal clear.

When an opportunity and location surfaced at the end of 2022, Tim and Dre so strongly believed they had something great to offer that they took the risk of quitting their management roles to once again begin the committed pursuit of business ownership together — this time with both feet in.

With unwavering determination and the help of an amazing contractor and design team, Dark Horse Coffee & Kitchen came to life. On Wednesday, May 10th, 2023, the doors officially opened to proudly become a part of the Sayville, NY community.

Today, we are still confident to say, “ We strive to provide the best version of people, local food, and service.” - Tim & Dre
