    Stopped in to HenDough to grab Sunday breakfast before our drive home. I have the chicken biscuit with sausage gravy and it was delicious! Ordering was a breeze , food was up fast and we found d a place to sit too despite the fact it was Sunday morning and the place was busy. I love these home cooking places and will go back .

    Order at the counter and our food arrived almost immediately. The biscuits were fresh, warm, and delicious though a little on the dense side. The donuts are also fairly dense and similar to a Dunkin Donut. I'd suggest trying one of their more unique flavors instead of sticking with the classic glazed, sugar, or chocolate. Overall, it's a charming spot with tasty food!

    Bacon Apple Bear Claw, I would have called it Bacon Apple Fritter but sooo good.

    Fun place in old Victorian-style house. Probably the best grits I ever had, tasted like they were boiled in bacon grease (but not greasy) and very buttery tasting. Maybe they added a little bacon at the end. Unique donuts, I had the Bacon Apple Bear Claw for dessert. I would have called it a Bacon Apple Fritter as the dough had a texture and flavor more akin to an Apple Fritter, but a rides by any other name.. Tomorrow I plan on trying the Créme Broulee and the Brown Butter Peach Cheesecake. Super friendly and (seemingly) happy counter staff. All in all just a genuinely pleasing experience.

    We unexpectedly came to eat here, and while parking was a little difficult, I'm glad to have been able to stop by. The service wasn't really helpful to questions I had and were mostly indifferent to everything, and if there wasn't a time crunch, I would've perused reviews more for an idea of what to order. That being said, the chicken here did not disappoint! The sides... well, I should've ordered the fried brussels sprouts. Hashbrown tots sounded great, and they were, but there were only two of them. It wasn't what I was expecting when I think of tots either. I love gouda, so the mac was nice. I should've ordered an actual donut instead of the donut french toast! My review feels a bit incomplete to me without having tried a donut! The donut french toast was dense and dry. For an item under their favorites section, it wasn't very good. The chicken was well seasoned, well fried, and whether it's on a biscuit or in a sandwich, was topped, dressed, sauced in a way that hits the spot. I could only assume how great their donuts must be.

    The inside is kitschy and cute with little donuts and hens. There was Christmas decor as it was the day after Christmas and they still had their specials. The server was very kind in taking my order and my coffee was excellent! I love a peppermint mocha and I was glad to see it on the Christmas special menu! I ordered the Gingerbread and the Bourbon Eggnog. The Gingerbread was great! It tasted more similar to a Biscoff than Gingerbread but I loved it. The Bourbon Eggnog was alright. I didn't get the taste of Bourbon or Eggnog. Overall a nice place! I would be back to have another donut!

    Cute shop with welcoming porch and fun, eclectic chicken-related decor. Huge pothole at the parking lot entrance - be prepared for a brief and unwelcome 4-wheeling experience. The moderate-sized menu is mainly donut and biscuit-centered. My egg and cheese biscuit wasn't bad; the egg portion was nicely prepared and generously supplied, while the biscuit was average at best. Although other cheese varieties would have been tastier, I don't have a big problem with American. The crème brûlée donut was gorgeous to behold; sadly, the charm ended there, with somewhat stingy filling, disappointing texture, and insipid, uninspired flavors within. Service wasn't great, eked out by a tragic Gen Z-er who would help me if she had to, but wasn't happy about it, and searched diligently for ways in which to make me feel somehow inadequate. Sorry, but either enjoy your job and love people, convincingly fake at least one of the above, or stay home and indulge your ennui while playing Fortnite with all your bot friends.

    Went here over the weekend for the first time. Staff was friendly and place had a great vibe. I ordered the breakfast platter and my husband got an egg sandwich, everything was delicious here and we'll definitely be back. Only thing I can make a suggestion on is to be careful when eating outside at the picnic tables. The tree roots are exposed and I fell backwards over one and bruised my backside and my ego trying to sit down at one of the benches. I know no one can help that the tree is there but a warning sign would be nice or the bench positioned differently maybe would help some.

    Delicious fresh homemade food. Donuts are huge and well flavored. Chicken, biscuits, amazing!

    Delicious and great value. Some of the best fried chicken I've ever had. Everything moved quick and the store was very cute. Staff was friendly and accommodating

    Donut Breakfast Sandwich
    Beth Ann C.

    What a wonderful place to enjoy breakfast or lunch. The husband and I both chose the Donut Breakfast sandwich which was huge and packed with sausage, bacon, egg and cheese on a toasted donut. I've never had anything quite like it and thoroughly enjoyed it. Service was fast and we sat outside under one of their many umbrellas on a lovely early fall day. Perfect! Will definitely be back.

    HenDough is the cutest little place! The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming! The food was delicious and the sweets were out of this world! The portion sizes are more than enough! The biscuits were fresh and HUGE! I will absolutely dine here again when I'm back in town!

    This is place is amazing. My wife and I split the donut breakfast sandwich and the apple chicken biscuit. Both were delicious but the donut breakfast sandwich was the real winner. I have lots of exercise ahead of me to work it off but it's worth it!!! The patio is also dog friendly, so bring your pups!

    BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM. Yes. Ten million yummy points this place is. Gawd dog I could not have picked a better biscuit place when I was looking up food in this area. This place was MOVIN people in out which speaks to how well known and loved this place is. The donuts were far too good, no other donut will ever compare. The chicken was more crispy than kernel Sanders could ever imagine. The staff was all sweeter than a pecan pie. You are a fool to pick any other biscuit place over this one. Seems bit pricey but the quality is beyond worth it. They also have a great coffee selection. Mouf is watering just remembering this place. It filled my heart soul and stomach. Thank you hendough for making my road trip home volumes less miserable

The property where this horseshoe farm sits is just so beautiful. We parked at the spa and walked to the silo restaurant.

We then ordered a drink and went and sat on the patio since they were running just a little bit late. Upon arrival, we were greeted once again by our waitress that took our order and kept our water and tea filled to the brim. We ordered the soup of the day and shared the Lamburgesa. The soup was served piping hot and broth was delicious. The lamb was so flavorful, but we opted to have the jalapenos on the side. My parents ordered the Broad Burger and were equally pleased.

This restaurant was a mile away and we decided to stop there first. It's a bit of a drive from the N Rigby entrance to the the cookhouse but a beautiful ride with green fields and a stunning view of Mt. Pisgah. We were greeted by a hostess who brought us to the porch in the rear. The first thing I noticed was the sound of many voices to both sides. It was more obvious upon entering that there were multiple groups seated at both sides along community tables. We were seated in the middle of the table to the right and chose to sit across from each other. Our server, Kara, was pleasant and helpful. We ordered from the brunch menu we were given by the hostess. I ordered the scrambled egg bowl and enjoyed the best tasting egg flavor I've had in a long time. The greens, pickled onions, feta cheese and other vegetables complimented the dish perfectly. My partner wasn't sure about ground lamb ( since there are several renditions of it) but took a chance with the lamb burger and was glad she did. The fries that came with it we shared; they were crispy as we like them. She ordered a virgin bloody Mary and enjoyed it. That said the Worcestershire sauce flavor was quite pronounced and it might not be to everyone's liking. We have had several lunches and brunches over the last several days and this was the least $. I think we adjusted to the sound level after a few minutes and did strike up a conversation with some folks who came in after we did and sat nearby.

For that price, I would much rather dine at Postero across the street. The restaurant asked if we were celebrating anything, and we mentioned a major accomplishment for our friend. While the waitress acknowledged it several times which was kind it was disappointing to learn that there was no complimentary dessert or gesture. At that point, repeatedly bringing it up felt unnecessary. Given the high reviews, I expected a much better experience. Unfortunately, I don't see myself returning.
