Bobby M.

Friendly staff, great food and awesome little cafe. The Reuben was very good - lots of pastrami, melted Swiss and sauerkraut. The coleslaw was decent...not my favorite but had a good taste. The fiesta melt was loaded with meat and chilis and the fries were crispy. Clean, well maintained cafe with clean bathrooms.

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!

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.

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

Great food. Great service. Friendly staff. easy to reach from Hwy 58 in downtown Tehachapi on Tucker Rd.

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.

Best food (BREAKFAST) in town! Great price, great food,great service! One thing I wish they would just make stronger coffee. It's like water. Other then that we love going with the family. It does get very busy on weekends and it's a small cafe so expect to wait 10-15 min if you come during rush hours. read more

This is my favorite breakfast/lunch place in Tehachapi. CLASSIC diner. A couple of booths, a couple of tables, nice waitresses who keep your coffee cup full and great diner food. Some of the patrons get here EARLY (6am) and stay for HOURS- definitely a comfy, home-y spot. It's right off the highway, so if you're passing through, it's not a huge hassle. I'm not a huge fan of breakfast food, but this place serves their lunch menu at any hour. Turkey melt for me! At any hour! I always leave a happy customer. I'll put it this way: I got married in Tehachapi, and on the morning of the wedding, my mom and I went here and had a wonderful mother-daughter brunch. The wife of the owner also made our wedding cakes (you can ask to see her photo book)- Delightful! read more

Jack had Chile Verde omelette & I had Southern breakfast! 11/8/17 we are in our way back to Palm Springs. We decided to forgo our free breakfast at the hotel to frequent Henry's again.

Great find on Yelp, so thanks Yelpers! We wanted somewhere to stop for breakfast between San Jose and Vegas, and this looked like a good place to try. It was fantastic! We were greeted by the very friendly staff, given a nice booth in the back, and when the food came, it was exactly as we had ordered. The biscuit was the softest, fluffiest biscuit I've ever had. The bacon was dead, dead crispy, and the eggs were over hard, just like I wanted. Really delish food! Did I mention how nice the staff were??? I think every one we passed on our way out thanked us for coming in and told us to enjoy our day. We'll be going back on our way home! I would highly recommend this place. read more

My buddy and I were driving through the area and decided we needed some breakfast. I checked out yelp on the phone and decided on Henry's Café. We found the place without a problem. We were promptly greeted and brought to a booth. The staff there was friendly and would have a bit of a conversation with you if they weren't in the middle of something. I had eggs and sausage and my buddy had an omlette. Both were pretty good. If you are driving between the Bay Area and Las Vegas, this is a great place to stop and have a bit to eat.

Biscuits. Yum. And gravy. mmmmm. Good. Nice and simple, this is a place that is friendly, friendly and friendlier. And there's nothing fancy about it but it is still just fine. I'm becoming a fan, a big fan. The location is not elaborate but it's clean and you can be comfortable. You can find friendly waitresses. And you can have a nice steady not elaborate menu and so you can find very reasonable prices and have a good time with total nice folks. This is why we like it around here. Even on a hot day you can get a good cup of coffee and I have been known to come here for two or three meals a day. I get me eggs for breakfast and a burger for lunch or dinner. The salads are fresh and the company is good. You won't complain about Henry's. read more

I wanted to like it, really. It could've been better. I came here on a Sunday morning when I'm sure they're at their busiest. I ordered the vegetarian eggs benedict. The eggs weren't as runny as they should have been. Not very runny at all actually. There was something about the hollandaise that just seemed off. It all came with hashbrowns that tasted stale to me. Just dry, like if the portions were cooked beforehand and left out. My fiancé had the french toast which I liked. So if anything, I would probably stick to that next time. read more

Henry's Cafe is so yummy and cheerful! The location is kind of unassuming. It's next to an oil change place, car wash, and a laundromat place. But, you go inside, and it's like a little country diner. The staff all wear T-shirts from other establishments in town. It gets crowded most weekend mornings, but the wait isn't too bad. The menu is great. Good old- fashioned breakfast items, as well a a lunch menu. My favorite is the vegetarian eggs Benedict. Everything is beautifully prepared and the home fries are crunchy and to die for. None of that soggy potato taste that happens after it sits around too long. So good. The biscuits and gravy are really good too. Yu can get them as a side item for everyone at the table to share, but it's basically q meal itself. The other great thing is that you can build your own omelette... And they don't nickel and dime you to death when you want more than three toppings. You COULD theoretically say you wanted an omelette with everything and it would be the same price, although probably taste a little crazy. The service was wonderful even though they were busy. My coffee got topped off like six times and they were checking on us consistently. This is a great place for breakfast. I wish they would stay open past 2 pm though! Breakfast for dinner would be nice! read more

Here's exactly what happened: 1) My first card (Card A) was charged $11.20. The cashier asked me if I wanted a receipt, and I said yes. Then she told me the receipt didn't come out because the transaction "didn't go through," and asked me to provide my card again. 2) I gave the same card again, and this time she charged $11.69. 3) Then again, she told me that it didn't go through, so I used a different debit card (Card B), which was charged $11.20. While sitting at the table with my family, I immediately checked my bank account and thought I had only been charged twice. I spoke to a staff member at the store and requested a refund for one of the $11.20 charges, which was processed. However, today I realized I had actually been charged three times, meaning there was still another $11.20 that needed to be refunded. So I called the bakery and asked to speak with a manager. I spoke with someone named Danielle. I calmly explained the entire situation and told her I would send all my receipts and bank transaction records by email so they could double-check and confirm everything. She said ok and gave me their email address, but it was very long, and I was concerned about making a mistake while writing it down. So I politely asked if she could text me the email address instead. Her response was extremely rude -- she said, "I'm not required to do that," and told me to just write it down myself if I had a pen and paper. Although I was already uncomfortable with her attitude, I carefully wrote it down and sent the email. However, the email bounced back as invalid, even though I had confirmed the spelling with her multiple times over the phone. When I called again, Danielle answered and said, "Ma'am," in a very dismissive tone, and told me that they had found the three charges and had already processed refunds for both $11.20 transactions. I tried to confirm which card the refund was going to, since I used two different cards, but after putting me on hold for a long time, she read off a card number that was not mine. When I told her that wasn't my card, she insisted those were the only transactions for $11.20 yesterday and told me to "check my bank in a few days" and call back if the refund doesn't show up. And, she didn't apologize for the mistake, even though they charged my cards three times and wasted a significant amount of my time. Even yesterday, when I asked for an apology, I only received one reluctantly after I pointed out that they had made a mistake -- and even then, the response was dismissive, as if I should just accept it because they were "taking care of it." The attitude throughout this entire situation was rude, unprofessional, and extremely frustrating. The cheesecake was very good. But because of this experience, I would never come back. We drove all the way from Los Angeles to Tehachapi with my family, expecting a pleasant visit, but this bakery completely ruined the day. Being charged a total of $34.09 for just two small items due to repeated errors is unacceptable. If your staff cannot properly process payments, they should not be working as cashiers. Situations like this should never happen. What's even worse is that after making multiple mistakes, there was not a single sincere apology -- only attitude, dismissiveness, and instructions for me to keep checking my bank and call back again. My time is valuable. This entire situation could have been avoided if things were handled properly from the beginning. This was an extremely unpleasant experience, and I am very disappointed. Cf) For reference, the other $16.05 receipt is for bread that my brother purchased.

I stopped in around 5:30 a.m., and it's refreshing to find a place that's not only open that early but also staffed by someone who genuinely enjoys being there. The barista greeted me with a smile, was friendly and welcoming, and made an outstanding Americano. It was incredibly smooth and one of the better Americanos I've had in a long time. I also appreciated that my drink was served in a real ceramic mug for a dine-in order--a small touch that made the experience feel warm and inviting. As someone who likes to get an early start, I was also happy to find plenty of outlets and reliable Wi-Fi, making it an ideal spot to get some work done before the day begins. Great coffee, genuine hospitality, and a cozy atmosphere made for the perfect start to my morning. I'll definitely be back the next time I'm in town.

A condescending restaurant that has great cooks and servers but when we walked in they looked like they didn't know what to do with us. We must have arrived on don't serve interracial couples day. Clearly our racist server went out of her way to mistreat us first by pushing through my wife and kids to seat those who had come in minutes behind us, then by ignoring us let us while she served everyone else. She wouldn't pour us coffee or serve us until it was painfully obvious that she was taxing the other workers who were resolved to actually help us. Bless them for having to work with such a sour lady. Go there for fun overall great and clean just be on guard if you're anything but vanilla. read more
