    Empty Plate - once was a Taco Salad
    James M.

    What a great spot, my biggest issue was trying to figure out what to order. I looked around the café & everything looked good from breakfast to dinner plates on other customers tables. I was torn until my wife said we can come back for breakfast before we leave the area- LOL. We were seated quickly, our Waitress was super friendly & helpful (and very patient). I went with the Taco Salad, wife did her go to (a classic burger). My Taco Salad was the BEST that I have had in a long time - very happy with my choice. The beer was perfect, and all the ingredients complemented the flavor (see pic) Wife loved her burger, I had a bite, it was delicious. Crinkle Fries were hot & crispy. Good friendly family environment with a casual hometown feel.

    A local favorite year after year! We ordered off the "Light" menu and still couldn't finish it all! Great diner food, served hot and fresh. My go to deciding factor is eggs cooked perfectly, no brown bits, and hash browns and bacon extra crispy !!! All served up by pleasant servers! Happy Tummy!

    We have been wanting to try Henry's since we moved up here. All the locals have been telling us to come check it out. We came here after the lunch rush on Saturday. The place was nice a clean. I love the art on the walls. The two waitresses working there were very friendly and got us seated quickly. We got our drinks quickly as well. My boys ordered fish and chips and a cheese burger with bacon. They both loved what they got. My husband got the turkey cranberry melt as a wrap and he said it was delicious. I got the Henry's dip and it was very tasty. The only suggestion I would say is to salt the fries but maybe they don't because of the older crowd that comes in. I don't know. They had salt available on the table so I just added salt. I also asked for a side of their BBQ sauce because they make it from scratch and it's absolutely delicious!! I took it home to make some bbq chicken sandwiches

    Omg....get the Plow Boy. Its huge. You can probably split it. Its a pastrami brisket sandwich. The jalapeños give it a nice little kick. It comes with a side and a pickle. Henry's Cafe was a cute little dinner. I would definitely come back if I were in the area. The breakfast looked good too.

    I ordered my gravy on the side for chicken fried steak. Got my order with gravy all over it. Plus a side of gravy

    On my way to Vegas, I needed a caffeine kick to stay alert behind the wheel. I exited off Highway 58 and discovered Henry's Cafe. From the outside, the place looks very unassuming, but once inside, you'll find a spacious dining area that is well-organized and comfortable. I was greeted by the hostess and requested a coffee to go. While she was preparing my coffee, I looked around and noticed that the food being served looked really delicious. Had I not arrived with a full stomach, I would have sat down to order a meal. The coffee was excellent, and I happily got back on the road. However, I made a mental note to stop here next time and try a meal.

    Clean, friendly, and delicious. This is the place to go to for breakfast/ brunch. Clean area, clean bathrooms, and friendly service as soon as you walk in.

    Pretty decent biscuits and gravy. The biscuit was the bready type of biscuit.

    I've lived up here most of my life, and I've never gone to Henry's so today we decided to check it out. We've always heard that it was good. This place sure gets busy. There were a lot of out-of-towners. The wait was about 20 minutes. All of the staff were nice and friendly. We didn't have to wait long for a waitress and drinks once we were seated. Our food came out relatively decent amount of time considering how busy they were. I had the chorizo and eggs with homestyle fries and biscuit and gravy. The chorizo and eggs was excellent. It was probably the best chorizo and eggs I've had at a restaurant, they make them just like how I make them at home. The homestyle fries were perfect. The biscuit and gravy was pretty decent. The biscuit is more on the dense bread side and the sausage gravy was good. My wife had the chicken fried steak and I had a bite. It was pretty good. She said everything else was great, the eggs, the hashbrowns and the pancake. Our waitress even offered us to go cups for our sodas, that scored extra points with me. All in all we had a great breakfast here and I think we will come back here sometime in the future, maybe for dinner next time.

    Love this lil coffee shop in Tehachapi! Great food and staff! Tried their signature chile better omelette. So bomb! First time I noticed it on the menu and love it. The corned beef hash, chicken fried steak are great go to's. They've never let us down. Always extra to take home. Plenty of parking in lot. Depending on the time you go, there may be a bit of a wait. But well worth it!

    Do they have truck parking?

    If you are meaning big semi trucks? I don't think I have ever seen any there. I know for sure you can't park in the parking lot. It's a tight one for every one. I don't think I have ever seen a semi parked in the street. I will update this… Read more

We were there on a Sunday afternoon and the Sunday afternoon knitting club was there knitting and pearling away while they sipped delicious coffee and ate delicacies from the baked goods. We were there for the delicious turkey ciabatta sandwich. The bread is toasted and it just makes the turkey spinach and tomato covered with melted provolone so much more tasty I chatted a while with members of the knitting club while we waited for our sandwich. They're there every Sunday and they knit for people that have cancer who need hats to stay warm. It's a great community up here in Tehachapi. I was impressed with it several years ago when we held a dance recital here this coffee shop seems to be sort of a club of community activity. The only downside is it does take a while to get your order because they're busy, but that sandwich was worth waiting for, and it made the miles from Tehachapi to Mojave speed by

We never got them until our meal arrived, and even then one was forgotten. When one of my friends received her order it was the wrong one. She ordered a chicken sandwich, not a burger. The burger that did come was burnt; luckily that is not what she ordered. We had to ask for refills as our server was walking by. She never once came to our table to see if we were doing OK.

Most of the restaurants I was interested in on YELP were closed on Sunday nights, so we took this reco from a local and ran with it. The restaurant is set back from the street in a little shopping area just off the main street from the first exit going East. It is worth a stop even if you are just driving through town. The service was warm, friendly and attentive. I had heard that the shrimp tacos were good, and I was hungry, so I ordered the dinner. My husband got the Carne Asada dinner. I got a very reasonably priced glass of Chardonnay, which I sipped as I studied the selection of tequilas lined up behind the bar. We were also brought chips and salsa right away. The chips are good, but more like packaged chips than fried chips. I sipped my wine, and enjoyed the ambience of this "local's" restaurant. It is the kind of place that your small office goes to for a celebration lunch, or for casual drinks after work. It has that casual vibe combined with affordable pricing that makes it popular. Our dinners came quickly and we enjoyed the hearty dishes. The food is kind of American-Mexican, as there was tartar sauce on my shrimp tacos. The shrimp were plump and there were plenty of them. My husbands Carne Asada was tender and there was a rolled up cheese enchilada with his meal that was just yummy!!
