I’ve found that customers rave about the homemade feel of the dishes at Henry's. The apple cinnamon pancakes and eggs with corned beef hash frequently steal the spotlight. Regulars highlight the friendly service and often mention Henry’s personal touches, which truly elevate the dining experience. Many guests appreciate the cozy vibe, making it a great spot for gatherings with friends. The quick service, especially during busy mornings, keeps diners coming back for more.

Most Disliked
While Henry's often receives high praise, some customers mention that the decor can appear a bit run down. For those looking for a sleek, modern dining experience, this may not meet expectations. A small number of visitors have noted that the space can occasionally feel crowded during peak hours, particularly on Thursday mornings when it hits full capacity. Limited menu options for those with dietary restrictions could also be a drawback, as choices may not cater to all needs. A few reviews mention that while the food is consistently good, the speed of service can vary during busier meal times, resulting in longer wait experiences. Overall, these minor concerns don’t overshadow the exceptional atmosphere and friendly service that keep many returning to Henry's.

We had apple cinnamon pancakes, french toast, eggs with corned beef hash. Everything was made by the chef and it was all delicious! Everything tasted homemade, fresh and made with love! One of the best experiences I've had in a dining establishment. So so happy we came here. Evening should come and experience Henry's 🥰

Eating at Henry’s makes you feel like you’re right at home. Went for breakfast with a couple friends and we all had great dishes. I got the bacon egg and cheese breakfast sandwich, a friend got a sausage egg and cheese breakfast sandwich and another got chocolate chip pancakes! The big draw to Henry’s though is Henry himself. He is, without a doubt, the most endearing and sincere man! We had such a great conversation with him about music. Henry has such a great heart and it’s evident in the food. It’s made with love. It’s made with care. If you’re looking for a cozy, no fuss spot to get a great bite, cannot recommend Henry’s enough.

Was shocked to read some of the negative reviews after eating here a handful of times. The owners are so incredibly friendly and nice. The food is really consistently good. I always get pancakes but my boyfriend gets breakfast sandwich, home fries and hash(he said the hash is really good.) yes, the place looks kinda run down but it's clean and in a old building. Definitely our new go-to spot. Strawberry shortcake is delicious!

Great spot for a quick meal! We stopped in for breakfast. It feels like you’re at home. Very simple menu with fast and friendly service with the chef.

Breakfast with love and then some. We had an awesome breakfast after a red eye flight from Vegas. It was a late breakfast and we had the place to ourselves with Henry. Super nice guy. Best eggs Benedict over corn beef hash, I've had. And the pancakes were melt in your mouth, delicious. He's been around for about 4 years and I wish we would have come sooner. We found our new breakfast spot!!

Had a great time, the food was great, and can not wait to go back. You need to visit this small joint at least once. They have great food options.

We've been here three times now and haven't had a bad experience yet! From the moment we walked in on our second visit and we're referred to as "regulars", even though it had been about a month since we last came by, we knew this was a good place. The staff are always very amicable and welcoming, almost as if they were inviting you into their own home. The interior is simple but sufficient, no fancy decorations needed here. The food is where they've really shone, and rightly so. From the chicken and waffles (solid A, could just use one more chicken tender to get the proportions right for an A+), to the Omelettes (I've had the Western and the Kielbasa) we've cleaned our plates all three times now. If you're in search of a low-key, quiet spot for a bite of food, come to Henry's and let them make you feel like family!
