    Came here before our spring training game. Staff also had baseball gear on and it was so welcoming and fun! Service was top notch servers were excellent at having small talk and being efficient and everything was perfect. Our server recommended getting the cinnamon roll as an appetizer which I appreciate because it did hold us over until our food got to us. The best dish award goes to the pulled pork sandwich although next time I will skip the fries and order hashbrowns as the side. I will be back 10/10

    Four of us stopped by yesterday for an early breakfast. The main draw was their infamous giant pancake we'd seen online -- but funny enough, none of us actually ordered it. At $24.99 for one pancake? Yeah... we passed. We started with the cinnamon roll as an "appetizer." Flavor-wise, it was solid, and they definitely didn't skimp on the frosting, very sweet and generous. I went with the breakfast sandwich (with sausage) and a side of breakfast potatoes. The sandwich was okay... nothing bad, but nothing amazing either. I ended up adding salt and pepper just to give it a little kick. The potatoes, though... oof. I hate to say it, but they tasted like they were cooked in motor oil. Maybe it was a new pan or some old oil, but either way, they just weren't good. Even after salt, pepper, and hot sauce, I couldn't finish them; and that's saying something because I love breakfast potatoes. Total bummer. On the bright side, the service was excellent. Everyone was super friendly, and the place itself had a cozy, homestyle vibe, like somewhere you'd stumble on up north. All in all, great people and atmosphere, but the food just missed the mark for us. Sadly, I don't think we'll be back.

    HH Breakfast Sandwich: biscuit with chicken fried chicken, gravy, bacon, and egg with a side of potato

    Came here this past weekend for breakfast and it didn't disappoint. The breakfast meatloaf was so unique and so flavorful. The service was efficient and our server was really friendly. It wasn't super busy as we went really early so it made for an enjoyable environment with an ability to take the time and eat. My husband loved that Texas benedict. The cornbread was so lite and soft and the carnitas had so much depth of flavor and were incredibly tender.

    The food here was such a good home style breakfast. I was obsessed with all the servers and hostesses, seriously the sweetest woman. The sausage patties were incredible. Overall good for a basic breakfast p

    Absolutely the best for breakfast in the area. The pineapple juice mimosa was perfectly balanced and the green chile skillet with carnitas was delicious-just the right amount of heat. The eggs were cooked perfectly. The ambience is lively bit not too loud. And the service was friendly and fast. It's a quick walk across the park from the Sheraton and a great place to meet for breakfast!

    Henhouse cafe started as a small operation in 2010 and has grown to four locations here in AZ. They are located in Mesa, two in Gilbert, and the fourth just opened in Tempe. They have won "Best of Gilbert" awards for many years. We ate at the 3rd installment right across the road from Sloan Park in Mesa. My HH breakfast sandwich was delicious. It's a large biscuit with fried chicken, cheddar cheese, bacon, fried egg, and gravy. The kids could only eat less than half of the huge chocolate chip pancakes. These were big, but the "mom's famous pancake" we saw come out to other tables was huge! The Texas benedict was a fun twist on a favorite; carnitas on cornbread with green chile hollandaise. Everything was tasty and the farmhouse decor is cute. We all walked out full and with leftovers. They offer 10% off daily for service members and 15% on Mondays. Check out this great breakfast option in the East Valley.

    Love this place.. Plenty of parking, seating & good food selections. Sat at the bar since it's noticed they had a large private group & short staffed, this would allow me quicker service & no extra walking for the staff. I was served by Trevor, he is a good man, attentive, friendly & quick to help. I am very impressed by Trevors work ethic, therfore I want people to know the younger generation can be great. Thank you Trevor. Ordered the chicken & waffles; coffee is hot & good, the waffles were perfect & the chicken was a little chewy, but it's fried so what can I expect. Love this place, get here, see my friend Trevor & try anything on the menu, it's delicious .

    I had Natasha as my server that morning we came in for Breakfast, she's the most sweetest person ever . I placed an order for the strawberry waffles and the breakfast combo . Everything came out hot and fresh and full of flavor . I absolutely love the decor a hidden local gem with farmhouse style decor with home style cooking !! Please ask for her when you come here she's super attentive and absolutely amazing!!!

    Came here for breakfast with the family on a weekend. It was pretty busy but we still got sat pretty quickly. I like how spaced out the tables are, despite it being pretty busy I didn't feel crammed or too close and personal with the neighboring tables. Everyone enjoyed their meals, my chicken was a bit rubbery I won't lie so I definitely would opt for a different entree next time. The waffle was yummy.

    Scrambled eggs, potatoes, sausage, rye toast.

    I was very pleased by the quality and service at Henhouse. High quality sausage along with the delicious potatoes to go along with my eggs. What a difference a "mom & pop" place is compared to a chain. I always seek out a local restaurant than a chain. If you're near a Henhouse, GO!

I love how they had the mini library section and seats for reading and they had local vendor artwork and crafts in the shop for you to purchase. The food was all freshly made I got the avocado toast on a croissant and it was delicious. I also got the blood berry tea which was super refreshing for a warm day. The French toast latte was also really good if you like sweet drinks.

I was instantly impressed by the reviews I saw on yelp so I figured this would be a no-brainer ! Came in early on a Sunday afternoon for a coffee and a light snack , opted out of getting a snack since the sandwiches were $13 bucks and I wasn't feeling that hungry. My husband and I ordered the same thing we always get a coffee shop, " two iced coffees with cream and a splash of sugar free syrup" .. I went with sugar-free hazelnut and cookie butter, and my husband went with sugar-free vanilla and sugar free caramel. Let me start off by saying they were delicious and creamy, but I was taken back when I saw the receipt- 17 bucks for 2 iced coffees was bit ridiculous, I mean they were nothing fancy. I even snapped a photo of the menu to make sure I wasn't going crazy, but the price on the wall was different then what we were charged for. Nonetheless, they tasted good. The vibes were great inside, lots of space and little special touches inside.. would be great for a meet up or working from your laptop for a few hours, but there are too many great family owned coffee shops in the area that don't charge that much when you just wanna grab a coffee. Like I said the coffee was great, but I just didn't see the value.

There are two drive thru kiosks here and ordering is all through a screen. There are so many different drinks and foods on the menu that if you are a newbie to this place it might be a bit overwhelming. On my most recent visit I had a caramel rockaccino with cinnamon and oat milk. It didn't take too long for it to be made and it had a well balanced sweetness and creaminess. I'd definitely get it again. I appreciate that you can bring in your own cup for them to use for your drink and it appears that you might get a little discount for using your cup too! I'll have to remember to bring in mine next time I want a coffee from here.

The way they handle pricing and ordering makes no sense. You cannot see the price of anything upfront. When you go to order, you are shown multiple sizes for drinks but no prices at all. You have to add items to your cart just to figure out what anything costs, then remove them and try again. I stood there for way longer than I should have just pressing buttons trying to figure out pricing. On top of that, they have a sign out front advertising one dollar coffee, but when you actually go through the menu, there is no one dollar coffee anywhere. It feels misleading and honestly frustrating. You end up wasting time trying to find a deal that does not seem to exist. Good coffee, but the overall experience and decisions around ordering and pricing completely ruin it.
