I stopped in for a late lunch during Henry's happy hour. The person working the check in table asked if I'd be happy sitting at the bar, and I was considering I was there alone. I sat at the bar and it took awhile before the bartender got to me and despite not many people being there, he looked overwhelmed. I ordered a beer and wings. The food came out fairly quickly and the wings were amazing. They were big, cooked just right, and I was impressed. When I got my check, I had been charged full price for the wings instead of the happy hour price, so I asked for it to be corrected. The bartender apologized and made the correction. Overall, I think Henry's would be a fun place to visit with friends, they have shuffleboard, and other games and the venue is really big so I imagine it gets pretty busy during sporting events and on weekends. Overall, as a daytime visit, I wasn't overly impressed, but I wasn't disappointed either. 4 stars because I see the potential of the place and think I may have just visited at an odd time. I love that they are able to pull up the sides of the building so people can sit at tables inside but still be completely open to the outside. Location is perfect for people watch.

We were in town for an NFL game and decided to check this place out. Super friendly crowd, bartenders were awesome, and the food and drink menus were great. A cool bonus was the bar had an ice ring to keep your drinks cold. Awesome spot to hang out with family and friends, and it's kid-friendly too.

First time here to start off a chill Friday night. Food was great, list of IPAs was very tempting, and the staff was very friendly. Got the grilled cheese—highly recommend. Very yummy when paired with the tomato bisque it comes with. Vibes were immaculate. All they need is live music and it’s perfect. Take your friends here!

Great food and drinks at this bar& grill. Big establishment with plenty of seating. Large menu with plenty of options. Lots of beers on tap. Also have cocktails, and wine. We had lunch here and got a hightop by the open side of the restaurant (open to the outside). Our server was friendly and attentive. Had a Prickly Pear margarita and my husband got the gin and cucumber cocktail (can’t recall the name). Both were really good. For lunch he got the Hot Honey Chicken bowl and I had the grilled chicken club. It was one of the best sandwiches Ive ever had. The crispy applewood bacon was chefs kiss….thick, crispy, flavorful, and huge strips. The Parmesan crusted bread had a garlic mayo and in between was a juicy grilled chicken breast with avocado, tomato, and lettuce. Choose sweet potato tots which were also very tasty. The hot honey chicken bowl wasnt much of a bowl but more like chicken on a bed of rice with broccoli, avocado, and pickled radish and cucumbers on the side. My husband enjoyed it even though the presentation seemed off.
