Yes they do bite and it is a bit painful. After you are bitten, the bite may be painful and will be itchy for a while. Put on an ointment to lessen the swelling, and don't scratch the bite, or it may become infected. After that, cover up the bite to prevent bacteria from entering the bite. Horseflies usually come out on sunny, hot, and dry days around water, and people, so be careful!
