We have eaten here many times over the years on our trips to Burlington. We ate here a few days ago, food is always very good, served hot and quickly. Service is great, the place is always sparkling clean. Prices are fair. Parking can be an issue. We will go again and we highly recommend. read more

I am a fan of homemade corned beef hash. I just had the best ever corned beef hash. At Henrys, I have previously had the corned beef hash skillet, but the other ingredients in the skillet took away from the hash. This time I had a side of corned beef hash instead of the skillet and it was phenomenal. Service was flawless too. read more

This is a good, basic diner. They have the usual offerings and a few specials. I think my mistake was trying a special: fried french toast. It was pretty flavorless until I dumped all my maple syrup on it. I had initially ordered a side of fruit but that was forgotten so I didn't bother trying to flag anyone down to bring it over - they were beyond swamped. My husband tried the corned beef skillet which was good but so salty, I could only have a bite of his myself. Sitting at the counter was a little stressful. It was also very small since it's in an original rail car - cool vibe, but not great in practice when you're shoulder to shoulder with the person next to you the whole time. Overall Henry's is fine, but I'd stick to the basics and not sit at the counter. read more

Great diner experience. Loved the corned beef hash. Like they grind it rather than shredded

Food was excellent, staff friendly and attentive. We ordered the Vermonter Skillet and Little Henry with French toast. read more

Put my name in the wait list and was called in about 20 minutes. I got seat by counter. I could see busy cook making the food and looking at the customers. Very friendly and attentive staff. I got three meat and Vermont cheddar omelet , it was really delicious. I also got yummy strawberry milk shake. Milk shake came out with the extra in the metal mixing container. On my way out, I was surprised to see people outside even when it was time for the restaurant to close at 2 pm. It's fabulous place, highly recommend! read more

Henry's was so good the first day, we went back the next day. This place is a must see as it operates like a well-oiled machine. Plan on a wait if you want a table as space is limited. We sat at the counter and it was perfect plus no wait. The breakfast was superb. If you try it, I highly recommend getting an omelet and a waffle. It's just too hard to choose. We never had lunch, but what we saw looked very good. Well worth a visit if you're anywhere close. read more

It's 6:50am in the morning, the place is practically empty and they are requiring reservations. Turns out there was a single waitress working the entire diner. It was also state law supposedly to call ahead and/or have reservations. The place was actually packed within minutes and there was a customer at every table that could be sat at given COVID restrictions. Of course the food was good. I had the Vermonter skillet. My only complaint is they could ditched the hash browns since it came with corned beef hash. The best part of this diner was watching the hardest working waitress I have ever seen. She was amazing coordinating everything, doing everything, and doing so at a vigor that was mind blowing. Another woman stopped into the restaurant to say "Hi" to the waitress. She called her "Mom" but I suspect that was not her daughter but one of many young men and women this waitress might know that calls her "Mom". My guess is that she is well known and well loved by many. Of course I had to leave this woman a very big tip. She deserved it. Keep up the great work. read more

So we came in starving. Put our name on the list and after about a 20 minute wait we got 2 seats at the old timey counter with a birds' eye view of the busy & efficient cooks and the mound of home fries ready to be loaded on the flattop. Our waitress was Grace and she was the epitome of her name! Looked over the menu and boy oh boy was it hard to decide. Like Guy Fieri-not a fan of eggs...but the ones I saw served looked picture perfect. We opted for lunch & both had the hot turkey open faced sandwich. It was very reasonably priced and came with soup or salad and two sides. We both chose mashed potatoes (real)! I chose soup...homemade harvest vegetable (yum) and slaw. My friend was extra hungry and ordered us a side of loaded taters. They were fabulous. Potato chunks fried and mixed with green onions, mushrooms, bacon, cheese and sides of salsa & sour cream! Dinner was served promptly. It looked so good I forgot to photograph. And it was. Really good. Like eat everything on your plate good. Desserts were cherry or apple pie, baklava or chocolate cake. Of course I was too full for dessert at that moment but took a slice of cherry pie (which incidentally, I ate for breakfast.) It was worthy! I cannot say enough kind words about this place and I can assure you I will be back. You should try it too! read more

The basic breakfast 2 eggs any style was lacking enough hashbrowns. Kind of slim the serving size. The hamburger and fries was better but did not have the traditional coleslaw. Make sure you ask for ketchup or any dressings if taking out the order. Dinner is small not made for tall people and they will not place you at a booth if eating a alone which I do not like. I like only a booth. read more

Food was delicious and service was great! Always kept our coffee cups full. Will definitely be back.

I had such happy memories of Henry's from prior trips to Burlington several years ago. I was excited to go back, but our most recent visit (7/22/18) was not as great. We were seated around the corner from the main area, where no one else was seated, and then basically ignored. Our server never brought my husband's splenda, he had to go up front to ask for it. I never got my hot chocolate, and didn't bother trying to find her - I was just glad I didn't get charged for it (she obviously didn't even write it down). I ordered the Vermonter skillet, eggs over easy - they were way overcooked. Of course, our server was MIA and I had to go find someone. They remade the eggs, undercooked this time, and took 10 minutes to get them (over easy eggs should only take a minute or two - especially when they're undercooked), so by that time the rest of my food was cold. Home fries were way undercooked as well. My husband did like his Irish eggs benedict. But overall, it doesn't seem to be on par with the quality and service that I remember from Henry's in the past. Just okay...definitely skip it if you're only in town for a few days, there are better places to go. read more

We woke up early to a snowy Saturday and decided to find a breakfast spot, knowing lunch would be tricky with an ice skating critique later. We stumbled upon this delightful place.

Friendly and cool service! Really great typical diner food. We went for breakfast and had sunny side eggs, French toast, bacon, buttered toasted and oatmeal, coffee and orange juice.

It's a tiny place, but the food, service, and charm is amazing! It's like a step back in time to a great 50's diner. If you're out on Church Street, this is a great place for a quick bite. Don't let the line scare you, it moves quickly. read more

Merhaps the best pastrami Reuben I've had in my entire life! Called a Hot Mama. Perfect thicc cut fries.

My boyfriend and I were visiting Burlington for the second year in a row and wanted to try a new breakfast spot. Previously we had been to Penny Cluse and Chubby Muffin. I love a good diner so we walked to Henry's. The place is really tiny and we had a short wait of about 5 minutes, but definitely prepare for a longer wait during peak times on weekends. The decor is cheery and bright with yellow accents. I ordered a basic breakfast with over medium eggs, bacon, toast, and potatoes with Vermont cheddar added. My boyfriend got the Benedict. Both dishes were really well done. I generally use the basic breakfast as a baseline and this one didn't disappoint! The bacon was good quality and the potatoes were small cubes instead of big chunks, which I like. The Benedict was another classic that was executed well, and the hollandaise was the best I've ever had -- super rich and a bit thicker than most I've tried. It was perfectly emulsified and not broken at all, definitely homemade. Our server was great and super polite. He kept our water and coffee topped off the whole time we were there. There was a line out the door when we left - this place is popular for a reason. Pricing is reasonable, with the basic breakfast with meat around $9 and the eggs Benedict $12. If you're looking for some good, classic diner food, give Henry's a visit. read more

We trekked all the way to Burlington Vermont and went to breakfast at Henry's Diner. It was wonderful! We both ordered the chicken fried steak breakfast. It was just too much food! The order came with Chicken fried steak, 2 eggs, home fries and choice of toast, biscuit or english muffin and sausage gravy!!!!! To say that it was delicious would be an understatement! It was amazing! The chicken fried steak was so tender, the sausage gravy was to die for! And the biscuit... oh my!!! I could have had that and been in happyville. But there was also 2 eggs and home fries! And it was all delicious! Compliments to the chefs! This is no greasy spoon! Our server was attentive and happy!! It was just a delight!! I cannot say enough about how great a breakfast it was! read more

First off the food here is amazing! A+ on the food. The love and I came here on a rainy burlington day before heading back from a labor day weekend. We waited about 20 minutes to be seated, in a tiny little front area where multiple people were packed in. The diner layout is setup in such a way to cause traffic jams between people entering and leaving the diner. Which was our only real complaint. The chocolate milkshake was amazing and definitely one milkshake feeds two people. read more

They open early! So, if you're an early bird, this is the place for you. I thought it was going to be a "greasy spoon", but the quality is much better than I anticipated. Nothing was actually swimming in grease and everything was delicious. I kept it simple with a breakfast sandwich: egg, cheese and turkey bacon on whole wheat. The bread is nice and thick; perfectly toasted. (You have a choice of grilled or toasted bread). My companion had one of the breakfast skillets and it was a TON of food. If you're super hungry and need to load up on carbs and protein, go for one of the skillets. I liked the hash browns served on the side with my sandwich...they could have been a bit hotter but they tasted great. Coffee was good and constantly refilled. Service was excellent and friendly. Next time I want to try a milkshake. read more

Absolutely adorable tiny place- maybe ten tables and a half dozen counter seats. We came in about an hour before closing time on Halloween. The hostess and the server were both super friendly. I got the apple cider milkshake, which was fantastic and generous. I also got the special which was buffalo chicken salad with unlimited soup. They only do a soup of the day and today it was split pea. The soup was good, definitely homemade. The salad was a bit cheap in the chicken (two very small tenders) but the mixed greens were fresh and topped with cucumber, tomato and onion. J got the meat skillet with a biscuit. The biscuit was huge and perfectly baked. The skillet was average but not at all bad. Two meals, one soft drink and a milkshake was $31 before tip. I'd return! read more
