Beer & Cocktails | The Light Horse Restaurant and Bar

Seasonal Cocktails

Our cocktail menu changes with the season, bringing fresh flavors and creative new pours to the bar alongside the classics you already love. From bright, refreshing sips to richer, spirit forward cocktails, each drink is thoughtfully made by our bar team here in Old Town Alexandria.

Halloween Spirits

A little spooky, a little seasonal- our specialty Halloween cocktails are available all October. Discover pumpkin spiced bourbon in The Headless Horseman, cranberry infused gin in our Flesh & Boney Negroni, and festive twists on an espresso martini and an apple cider mule. Stop into The Light Horse in Old Town Alexandria to find your favorite and enjoy our Sleepy Hollow themed Halloween Decor.

Classics, Done Right
