Great Beer and Bartender! 9/27/2011

I have been going to Henry's for years with my husband and keep coming back for two reasons: the great beer selection and the great service from Sean (the bartender). All the bartenders seem good but he is by far the best! He goes above and beyond! Even when he isn't the bartender serving us, he still makes a point to come up and say ""hello"" and thank us for coming in. We are always so impressed with his work ethic, quality of drinks he makes and personality. We will continue coming back as long as he is still working there! more

Service with a sneer 7/17/2011

I went to Henrys last night for there late night happy hour. There food is fantastic and until last night i've always had very friendly and personable servers. As a fellow server myself I am no stranger to working in customer service and I was VERY disppointed in the server I had last night. Her greeting and demeanor were very cold and she acted very bothered when my friend asked questions about the beer menu. She even ignored us when we tried to get her attention, she looked straight at us and pretending not to see us. Her service was dismal as was her personality. Usually the service at Henry's is wonderful but it seems that their hiring policies have changed. If you get Sara R. ask to be moved to another servers section unless you want to go through the same unpleasant meal experience I did. more

Great atmosphere 3/16/2011

Portland is known for being a foodie city, it can be difficult to set yourself apart. But i just love the look of this resturant and the food is always tasty! more

You will not be let down 3/13/2011

I like Henry's better in the summer when you can sit outside. The drinks are predictable and this is good - never a bad drink and yet never a great drink.\r \r Average food and often very packed. There is nothing wrong with this location yet nothing great. more

Impressed 3/1/2011

In general I'm difficult to impress where food is concerned, but this place blew me away. I'd been to the bar on a number of occasions, though never ordered food. Wish I'd known sooner...geez. Everything was spot on and I raved all night about how great it was. There are tons of places in Portland that are trying to step up their menus and Henry's has hit it out of the park! more

Absolute worst service EVER 9/6/2010

Recently sat outside on a lovely Sunday afternoon. The server came to the table right away and took our order for beer and wine. It took 26 min to get our order. By chance we had checked what time we had arrived as we had just finished the 4T trail (fantastic by the way). About ½ through our 26 min wait for beverages the server took our food order. We finally received our food 58 min. after we had arrived. The food was mediocre and the wine was the wrong thing. I talked to the manager who simply said sorry we are having “execution” problems with the kitchen and the wait staff. I can tell you who should be “executed”…. Both management and the staff. Don’t waste your time with this one. There are SSSSOOOOO many other great choices in the neighborhood!!! more

Great Happy Hour!!! 8/18/2010

So happy hour is awesome at Henry's, the food is great, portions are fantastic, prices are good and the raspberry drop is DELICIOUS!\r \r Bad svc the last time we went though, so they are losing their edge. They told us we could go upstairs in a booth for HH and then no one came for 10 mins so we came back downstairs and then no one came for another 10 mins and finally I had to go to the bar and tell the bartender we needed svc! Irritating! Then 1 waitress comes and slaps down menus like it's our fault and another comes to take our order. After the food came we got no other service. DISAPPOINTING! more

Excellent beer selection and killer happy hour menu 12/31/2009

The beer selection on tap is amazing, over 100+ and I'm not even a beer drinker. Their happy hour menu and pricing is unrivaled and their specialty cocktails (my fave is the Hot & Passionate) are worth writing home about. All in all, a great bar and even better happy hour. Pros: 100+ beers on tap, delicious well priced happy hour food Cons: Fills up quickly, noise level can get loud more

Beer cheddar soup, need I say more! 10/24/2009

Love this place you have to try the beer cheddar soup consider the cup but get the bowl its so good you will lick your plate, well I did. There food menus has a ton of styles for every taste. Beer menu is great with little descriptions if your in the mood to try something new. We have taken out-of-towner's there on a number of occasions and everyone loves it. Try eating in the bar, big booths or tables. Really cool spot. Pros: Atmosphere, great beer selection, lots of chooses for food Cons: sometimes service is slow more

Very Fun and Nice. Great Food! 1/26/2009

We got a gift certificate to this place, so we weren't quite sure to expect because we hadn't been there before. The name ""tavern"" threw me off a bit. I was thinking of dart-throwing and pool, but it was very, very nice. I have and will recommend it to others. It's a definite must see in Portland. Pros: Nice, Good food, fun Cons: noisy more

Birthday party ruined 1/19/2009

My husband reserved a space for 20 of our closest friends for my birthday party. He was told we would be seated in a private room at three round tables at 8pm. Our group wasn't seated until 8:45 at one long table in the middle of the restaurant. We couldn't hear any of the conversation that went on the whole night. Our food took over an hour to arrive and one of our guests got his dinner half an hour after everyone else. When the bill came we were told that we could not split it up on more than five credit cards otherwise their system would ""crash."" The worst part of all my husband's hamburger was undercooked and it was so dark in there he couldnt tell until he was 3/4 of the way through. He was sick all night long!!! Cons: food undercooked, no reserved space, difficult for large parties more

MANAGEMENT LACKING IN TRAINING 1/19/2009

Had our company party last night at Henry's, party of 12. Made reservations requesting downstairs hoping it would be lively. The restaurant was busy, but they put our party in the back by ourselves. I requested we be moved, that seemed to be a problem. The manager seemed to think we wanted privacy so we could talk. We talk all day long to each other, we wanted to party! They finally put us upstairs where I originally rerquested not to be. The waiter took our drink orders and half of the drinks arrived, the other half 20 minutes later. My drink was horrible, made incorrectly. The waiter finally took our orders, everybody was served except 2 of us. 11/2 hours later we were told they did'nt have our entree's. What the fu**? Why did'nt they tell us that when they took our orders? I complained to mangement who then said they would comp $80.00 of our meal include the two entrees we had'nt received. Management also had a serious attitude problem, asking how I handled problems at my business. What does that have to do with my meal? She needs to do her job and not worry about mine. We finally received the last entree which was awful-oversalted, crappy scallops. The mangement finally had an attitude adjustment and the entire meal was comped. Sounds like Gordon Ramsey needs to visit Henry's and show them how to run a restaurant. more

Portland's Best Bar 11/19/2008

Hands down, this is Portland's best ""anytime"" bar. The food and drinks are always great and the service isn't bad too! The best part about Henry's is that it's one of those bars that is good for any and all occasions! Pros: Awesome Happy Hour Menu! Cons: It's always busy, so finding a sear can be difficult! more

Great for Corporate get togethers 10/3/2008

I was having a party yesterday for a fellow employee that was leaving. I didn't think it was necessary to reserve space, but realized that I needed to. I contacted Val at Henry's and asked if she could help. She provided 2 pool tables, and almost the entire Billiards Room for our party. The room was perfect for people to mingle and walk around to talk to others. Pool players had room to play without bumping into anyone. We had our own bartender. Thank you Val and the Henry's staff. Pros: Willing to work things out on short notice Cons: Only about 6 beers on tap in the billiards room. more

Happy Hour Hotties! 9/19/2008

Though the happy hour is excellent, and the service fantastic, the real I go to happy hour at Henry's is for the ladies. The wait staff looks as if they had just come off a runway, who ever was in charge of hiring, god bless him! I for one will definitely be back. Pros: Everything Cons: Parking's a b!tch more
