I absolutely love the plowboy sandwich. You can never go wrong when you order that. Hubby had chicken fried steak which he said was good also. Highly recommend. read more

Interior was clean and had a classic diner feel to it! We had to wait about 30 minutes on a Sunday morning. Service was good!! Food was pretty average at best! I got the southern breakfast and wife got eggs Benedict. Coffee was great, very good coffee! Not the best food though. My breakfast was a little salty and biscuit and gravy was just ok. Wife's food was so bad she didn't eat it!! Great waitress noticed and offered another breakfast, we didn't accept but she was kind enough to remove the charge for us! Every thing was good except the food read more

Food was good ! Our waitress was super friendly .. I recommend stopping by when you are in the area !!!

On a sunday we expected a wait--but only 15 minutes and we were called in. Then the wait began. We were served drinks quickly but there was a large party in the back--causing our food to take 64 minutes to come out--we were hangry by then. The waitress was nice but should have given us more frequent updates to assure us they hadn't forgotten us. The food was a 5*--maybe the best chili verde omlet I've ever had--succulent shredded pork and lean and lots of it. Just the right amount of spice. Next time we will come on a weekday!! read more

Traveling through.... Read other reviews and decided it was worth the small deviation from the route. Parking a little tight for our oversized vehicle.. the wait short, food was good. Very accommodating to minor modifications of our choices. Wait staff friendly and attentive. I could see it being more crowded than the steady flow of people coming through in the later morning hour this Monday. I'd go again. read more

Nope. Nope nope nope nope. My family had brunch at Henry's yesterday, and it was my first (and hopefully last) time eating there. It was awful. But my main concern does not lie with the food (although the food was bad) - my main complaint is that I heard an employee taking a shit in the bathroom and then saw her leave without washing her hands. SO DISGUSTING! I know it was an employee because I saw her shoes and saw a female employee wearing the same shoes out in the dining area. I hope to God she did not touch anyone's food. I am not dead or sick yet, so I guess we're okay. Secondly, I pulled a big long hair out of my cup of ranch sauce about halfway through the meal... Enough to make anyone gag, I think, between those two things. The food itself was really bad too and not worth the hour we waited between getting a table and receiving our food. The restaurant was PACKED with people who, I guess, didn't have anywhere better to eat at? I wish we had gone to Denny's like we had originally planned to, but the choice wasn't up to me. I had a French dip sandwich with fries (see pic), and it would've been fine had the roast beef not smelled like wet dog and had a slimy texture.... Slimy! Beef isn't supposed to be slimy. It smelled so bad that I instantly lost my appetite and basically just ate the French roll with the Swiss cheese on it and the fries. The au jus it came with was also cold and not nearly salty enough to be real au jus. It had no real flavor whatsoever. Very, very bad all around. How is this place still in business? read more

I came for dinner after work, the Rib Eye sounded good so I thought I'd give it a try. The steak was incredibly salty. Even after scraping off all the seasoning. The staff didnt really ask how the food was, and didn't engage with the customers. I had a better experience once here at breakfast time. But I probably won't be back. It's almost as if the salt shaker lid came off when the cook was seasoning it. Good lord! read more

Passing through to Sacramento, I saw a billboard with I believe a Tri tip sandwich and fries. So of course we had to stop there. Super easy to find when you plug in the address. It's right off the street. Parking right up front. Very welcoming when we arrived. Our waitress was new and she was super nice. We ordered (for kids) pancakes and macaroni. For my husband and I, we split the Patty Melt and Tri Tip Dip. Both great but I have to say the Tri tip dip is the way to go! Get it exactly how they make it. It's full of flavor! And the auju was perfect to dunk it all in! Yummy diner. read more

Both the food as well as the service is always incredible one of my favorite things there are the waffles and the chicken strips are amazing

Great Eggs Bennidic! Waitresses are friendly and attentive! Nice environment . I continue to encourage my friends coming up to Tehachapi to stop and have a bite! read more

Ordered breakfast for 5 to go and everyone was pleasantly surprised! The whole order was correct, (nowadays that's rare). And the food was delicious! We ordered French toast, pancakes, biscuits and gravy plus the usual sides and it was all great! If I'm ever in the area during breakfast time again, I'm definitely stopping here again. read more

I asked for the dish in the photo on their yelp page, that's why I came here. You can see what they brought me. It was not good at all, very disappointed. I couldn't even eat it the chorizo was terrible. read more

What More Could You Ask For?!!!!! Friendly Staff/Clean Environment/Delicious Entrees at Reasonable Prices/Tastefully Decorated/Ample Parking,etc. The Star of the show was Caitlin (hope I spelled her name right). She was genuinely friendly and highly efficient. She was very clear and upfront about the cost of any substitutions, which were well worth it...truly fresh fruit and pancakes for the regular choices. The 10 ounce steak was trimmed well and was AT LEAST 10 ounces. To top it off, it was 15 degrees cooler than Bakersfield up there and the air didn't smell like illegal fireworks! It was well worth the trip! I've been coming here since they opened in 1991 and it's as great as it ever was! See for yourselves! read more

One of the best omelets I have had. Every ingredient diced precisely and grilled to crunchy perfection. Then stuffed inside and all around the omelet. Service was perfect. Clean and comfortable setting. read more

I was very disappointed with my breakfast this morning. I order the waffles which were 10.95. They brought out 2 little squares of waffles. (Like if you had a 4 square waffle machine and you got half). You can get 3 pancakes for the same price and they are decent size. Also order a side for potatoes that had no seasoning at all. All 3 of us had to add salt and pepper. Not the same as when it is cooked with seasoning on it. Also, where they seated me, I sit on a scooter, I was bumped into at least 13 times, more but it was 13 times when I started counting, by a few customers but mostly by the waitresses. Not one apology for their staff. VERY RUDE. You sat me there and then continually bumped me. It's very annoying to have people bumping you continually. read more

My omelet was delicious. My boyfriend enjoyed his French toast. So glad we gave it a try. Would definitely order again!!

Henry's has been here for a long time. Excellent service, delicious food and they are fast with cooking and bringing out your order. I highly recommend this place to everyone for breakfast and lunch. They do close at 2p so be sure and get their early. read more

We came out here foe the annual Western Swingout. At nearly 1am the first night I went on Yelp and looked over all the breakfast spots in the area and this is the one that I chose to come with my group of friends. Did not disappoint!! Love that's a bit off the beaten path and away from the other weekenders. Definitely was the locals favorite. Wait wasn't too long (15 min). Parking was plenty. The decor is nothing to brag about. For coffee drinkers, there's only brewed coffee but it's a good one with unlimited refills! I love how the menu offers you light eat portions so you can order less if you didn't want a bug plate of food. Everything was good breakfast food and our favorite was the French toast. Something about that syrup!! The homemade biscuit was delicious too! The waitress even offered to split up the bill however many we wanted. We were so happy with our experience that we came back the next morning! Definitely will be our go to breakfast spot next time we are in town! read more

Henry's Cafe - French Toast combo, light eater French toast option, brewed coffee. - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Tehachapi, California

Cute little spot with seated quickly the waitress/hostess was very polite and quick, attentive but not overbearing. The food looked wonderful good portions. I had gotten the Viva French toast and a half order of the country gravy and biscuits. My only dilemma was everything was essentially flavorless. The French toast was pretty much just bread dipped in egg no vanilla extract no cinnamon the powdered sugar on top barely helped. the biscuit was fluffy, but the gravy on top tasted as if it had no sausage in it no matter how much salt and pepper I put on it. I would like to go back, but not if everything taste like nothing read more

Henry's is just a Tehachapi staple, it's been my fav for all the years I have lived here. Not only to the incredible staff but the most amazing food. Breakfast is my favorite and their biscuits and gravy are top notch. The ambience is a home town feel family place to eat. read more

Recently I was in Tehachapi and decided to get lunch at Henry's Cafe. Atmosphere: Henry's Cafe has both indoor and outdoor seating available. The outdoor seating is plastic card tables, but it's always appropriately spaced. Inside Henry's Cafe, there are plenty of booths, tables, and a bar. Henry's Cafe was also all dressed up for the Holidays, and I always appreciate a diner that does that. Food: Henry's Cafe menu has everything you imagine in a diner. There is an all-day breakfast, including pancakes, eggs, and omelets. Plus, you can even build your own omelet. Lunch options included several types of salad, burgers, and sandwiches. I saw someone with one of their salads, and it looked massive! You can find Henry's Cafe full menu here. I was in more of a lunch mood and decided to order the turkey, cranberry, and bacon melt. I haven't had one of those at a diner before! It came with exactly what it sounded like turkey, cranberry, bacon, and swiss cheese all on sourdough bread. It was a great sandwich, and the bread tasted good. I was thrilled with my decision. The french fries were crispy and not overdone. Service: The hostess was friendly, and my food was ready for pickup when I arrived. Would I Come Back I liked Henry's Cafe and if I'm back in the area, I'll definitely be back. Henry's Cafe takes precautions with COVID, and the food is great, and it's an inexpensive spot. read more

Food was quite good. A definite hidden gem in Techachpi. I had a club sandwhich that was very good. The waitress was very nice. Keep up the good work read more

While the food is average to a bit above average, the service here is great. Very friendly. Feels a little like Cheers, especially if you go often. Very hometown feel. Ambiance is standard diner. Everything is night and day better quality than a Denny's or Carrow's or something like that, but it's all still diner fair. However, unlike other diners, I usually don't get a gut ache and bloating upon leaving here. If it passes my gut check, that's a win in my book. read more

We needed to stop in Tehachapi, so I Googled for restaurants. Henry's Cafe looked like the perfect place for breakfast. It was. We found a friendly place with an ambiance that could have passed for a 1950's style cafe if there had been a jukebox. Danika, our server, kept the coffee and conversation flowing, and brought one of the best omelets ever. They have a Create-your-own omelet very similar to Five Guys's burgers: up to 20 different meat, cheese, veggie, salsa, sour cream inserts/topping for the same price (currently $15.45). And if everything doesn't fit in the omelet, they spread more on top and on the side. I wish we lived closer to Tehachapi - there are lots of other menu items I'd like to try. Another point in its favor: The locals are regulars. That's always a good sign. Final note: I typically tip no more than 20%. Here I tipped 25%. read more

Found Henry's Cafe while on a road trip to San Diego with a night stop in Tehachapi. Such good food and fun people - small time vibe in all the right ways.
