    Local bar not far from where I live. Hadn't been here yet, not sure why, so was out and about and decided to pop in on the weekend. Indoor and outdoor seating available, Bar Henry is a cool little for in Echo Park serving up tasty cocktails in a friendly, local feeling environment. We tried a few cocktails when we visited. The Butthole Surfer is their version of a pina colada which, while decent, could have been a little more flavor forward. Feel it is premade in batches as I didn't see it made fresh but was brought getting the back, but still decent. The Lucid Dream had the smokiness from the mezcal posted with the mandarin, but then the rosemary comes in and helps add a little balance to the drink. The Swimsuit Edition was more flavor forward, but the passion fruit didn't necessarily pop in the drink for us. And finally was the Snitches Get Stitches, another mezcal drink with mango and horchats. Interesting was my first thought, then you start getting the nuances of the different interested and it's a respectable cocktail. Overall, good drinks, friendly people, chill atmosphere, and a nice addition to the bar scene in Echo Park

    Bar Henry is a great neighborhood cocktail spot in Echo Park. The vibe is intimate and stylish. Moody lighting, velvet seating, and a cozy atmosphere. The drinks are excellent, strong classics and creative cocktails, plus a good selection of beer, and wine. It does get busy on weekends, so seating can be limited and the noise level rises, but on weeknights it's much more relaxed and conversation friendly.

    What I can say, I really dig this place. I've been here a handful of times and I always enjoy good conversations over solid cocktails. Solid drinks, chill vibes, and dope sounds on deck, equals a rewarding formula. Beverages: 5/5. Based on the cocktails I've had, they're consistently good. Happy Hour menu is always great and I take advantage of it. Ordered a Negroni last night, but I've also enjoyed some of their combos (beer/shot of Mezcal) from the Happy Hour menu. Service: 5/5. On point. Handled. Nuff said. Ambiance: 5/5. Sure, the dark warm moody vibes are a plus. However, it's the local neighborhood bar feel, minus the lack of pretension (WEHO), and actual adults that make Bar Henry a winner in my book. It's refreshing to find a cocktail lounge/bar that gets it right and I always look forward to stopping in. Buen provecho.

    Cool loungey atmosphere. Drinks were strong and tasty- just how I like it! Good service as well. I like the layout and how it's not so bright. Just chill and have a drink.

    Visited Bar Henry a couple of months ago for the first time. The bar posted they were having a Palestinian fundraiser so I wanted to go support. Unfortunately when I walked in there wasn't anything indicating or blatantly obvious that the fundraiser was going on. Anyway, I still ordered a drink (dirty martini) and a pretzel. I'm sure the drink was well made I just wasn't a fan of olives and vodka together so I'll probably never order that in my life. The pretzel was honestly pretty disappointing, I've had better. I'd definitely go back because it wasn't a loud bar and it was a place I can see myself catching up with a friend.

    Neighborhood bar. Super chill Vibe. Naked and famous is my go to drink. Cool chill spot to check out after a evening Dodgers Game. Parking: street parking all around.

    Tasty fantastic drinks! The Flattened Priest, on Bar Henry's menu is one of the best Mezcal cocktails I've ever had! We came to celebrate our friend's birthday, a private event and had the BEST time at Bar Henry. I didn't get any photos of my drinks, they were simply divine & I was too busy enjoying the night. Dancing to good tunes, hanging with friends & ringing up a bar tab that was worth it! The staff is super friendly and good vibes all around. I'll be back for more Flattened Priests - the best Mezcal drink with a Taramind mini spoon of delight inside! Tajin rim! Let's go!!!! Just a heads up - beware of the edge of the bar when placing your drink down. It slopes downward aka not flattened like my fave drink. So don't let your cocktail slide off & hit the ground. Or be the hero and catch someone's recently set down cocktail as it slides off the bar. I'm 1 for 2 with the save. Aside from that bar table challenge - everything else is superb!!!

    I always thought this was an upscale fancy bar but it turned out to be a super chill neighborhood (dive) bar. That wasn't what I expected and I thought the vibe was really cool. I saw a DJ Booth but there was no music when I was there. Just FYI. No food. Happy Hour. Street parking only.

    Not exactly sure how long this bar was around, but I just went for my first time recently. And I think I found new favorite spot to drink in the area especially before or after Dodger games. The vibe is pretty chill here and the bartenders are really cool. They have a great selection on whisk(e)y and of course the more higher end you go, the more it will cost you, but honestly, the relative pricing here feels really reasonable compared to other places you can find the same rare whiskeys. Came here to meet some friends after the opening day Dodger game, so parking and driving through the area was probably as horrible as you would imagine. I found parking a few blocks away and came in and sat at the bar area. My friends were already drinking, but I started with a pour of William Larue Weller. One of my faves! I also got some Blanton's Gold before leaving. Really liking the selection here. I could see this being a great spot grabbing a drink before or after dinner here as well especially since it seems like so many exciting and great restaurants are in the area. I hope to be coming back quite frequently around dining adventures and Dodger outings. There was another spot I used to go to in the area for drinks around Dodger games, but with all due respect to the other spot, I feel like I'm getting way too old to deal with the crazy crowds, haha. This place definitely feels more my speed.

    Love Love Looove Bar Henry. Super chill spot with a great staff, ultra accommodating owners, delicious cocktail program and comfortable vibe. Just stopped in last night and tried the "Under the Milky Way" cocktail made with precision by the ever-so talented Julian and it KNOCKED MA SOCKS OFF! The epitome of drinkable! So good I had to check it twice. D.J. was playing some great tunes and it was a TIME! Bar Henry is a place that I hold in my heart and can guarantee it'll treat you right whenever you find yourself in the neighborhood. Much love.

    Butthole Surfer
    Monique W.

    Bar Henry is a gem to polish off your Dodgers Day or swing by to catch up with friends. The inside has low lights and a cozy atmosphere. I tried the Butthole Surfer which came in a fun tiki type glass. This cocktail packed a great punch that could have you riding on a wave as time slips by. We bellied up to the bar, met with smiling faces and cordial nods. I will definitely find another occasion to visit.

    I've passed Bar Henry so many times and always wanted to check it out. One night while driving down Sunset, we finally made it in. I had the Butthole Surfer, which is basically a frozen Pina Colada. It was really good, but I really didn't need the extra dark rum floater... after that one drink I was one and done! I liked the dark and cozy vibes and the service was excellent. Our bartender was so funny and friendly. I'll most definitely return.

In order to get to the nut, one must appreciate and wallow in the chocolate shell and its fudge coating. My friend Lorraine and I had just spent energy walking the MOCA so securing refreshments and a place to rest was next on the agenda. With the Conrad being one maybe two blocks from the MOCA, it became the destination for a moment of rest. We walked, and we just kind of figured, easily, that the lobby had a bar. We figured it out easily because we kind of just picked up, along the way, that most, gorgeous and lux hotels have lobby bars. As you enter the lobby of the Conrad you were greeting with vivid pink Cherry Blossom shrubs. I wondered if they were faux or real? Regardless, the touch of temporary Spring was much appreciated, and made me wonder how the Conrad celebrates seasons and holidays with sophisticated and tasteful adornments. For St. Patrick's day I do not imagine the Conrad placing inflatable Shamrocks in specific places but rather emerald wreaths decorated with Swarovski rainbows. Meaning that the Conrad will not stoop to support cheer and mirth with over played tchotchkes. As I explored the lobby I continued to spot the elegant details that together made the Conrad lobby a lux environment where the thought of boorish behavior banish to the isles of dive bars and bro-outs. I saw a curtain that draped to the floor. I ran my fingers and the cloth felt good, it also made me feel like I was a heroine capturing dynamic footage for a commercial. I clipped the moment, but, I would have felt the commercial montage vibe, even if I did not clip a video of the moment. There were also these cubes with a red slit that looked like a funky dragon eye. I clipped those too. I took time to notice how the environment made itself luxurious and aesthetically pleasing. In that way I enjoy the sparkle of a diamond ring not just appreciate the ring because it is expensive. Lorraine and I finally found a place to sit outside around a bonfire. From where we sat we were able to view a geometric wonder or in other words an LA building. The building, to the side of the Conrad, looked like stacks cubes in a layered way. The intent was not uniformity, it was building floors like a step stool so that a short giant could reach a pantry item above his reach. Two sides of the building were beige, the middle blue in windows. Finally, it did not looked like a four dimensional shape, like most building does, it rather looks like a corner slice of a round building cake. I got all these images as I revisited the picture. Being there, sitting outside in an elevated patio, with a burning fire pit, while eating corn nuts that were brought to my hand via a spoon, was a relaxing exercise that demanded rest, reflection, and presence to enjoy the comfort owed to us because we sought it and we were humble enough to find splendor amongst it. Of course, the step stool building was not the only marvel that we appreciate because of a new found level. We also enjoyed the Hollywood sign beyond the distance. If I were a tourist to the city of Angels, and saw the Hollywood for the first time from my hotel, I think I would plotz. We also saw the odd curves and wings of the Disney Concert Hall. And nearby there was a single sculpture on the Conrad's grass. I would consider where we sat a nest, to enjoy the beauty of all around us, as we waited for someone to bring us food, that thankfully they would not chew and then feed to us because then a crass vibe would be invited to the stronghold reserved only for the demure. The environment of this place, as the above paragraph suggests, is the flex. My friend Lorraine and I split a cheese and meat board, charcuterrie, I know I spelled it wrong. But here in this place they called it something different--- cheese and embudinitos. This was a solid board, nothing dramatic, nothing over the top good but the perfect set of bites for the moment where we sat and saw and sipped and then also sat back. The one huge miss of the moment was my drink---the Vesper a Vodka concoction. The server explained that it was going to be balanced more than sweet. I took sips and the motif of elevated elegance became hard hitting alcohol swill. The drink had no subtle presence, no restrain in taste. It was a pure alcohol kick, like I was trying to get drunk cause that alone was a cool fact. I did not send the drink back because I could handle the sips that tasted more like shots. I am not going to lie, it was a good buzz on a glass, but in terms of it being a composed creation, it simply was not. I read the menu, and the drink was vodka, gin, and a third ingredient that sounded french but was spelled with apostrophes but not at the end. Maybe what I responded too was the gin not the vodka. In short, I would go here again whenI need to relax with sip, snacks, and enjoy immersive views of sky and skyline.

This was actually the only thing I tried that evening, but I'd love to return to taste their other options. Overall, the atmosphere and drink were 10/10 for me.

    This was the last stop in a night where Conrad and I stepped out to LA to have a good time. So by…read morethe time I got there I was tipsy. I was not falling down the stairs, nor was I slurring my words, nor was I misaligning my pool shots, but I was definetely feeling the good inside my blood. I note this, not to highlight my cool factor as if I was a frat bro in a Florida party school, but more to describe how my experience was fogged by my consumption. This place was definetely a hot spot to hit, but I just will not be able to descrbie everything with speicifc detail, more, broad strokes of a good time. The place is reached by going down a flight of stairs, which feels like one is going to catch the J line in New York. I think I felt this more because of the Spring St sign- a famous stop in NY, NY. As soon, I got there, the goal was to continue the good time and this place allowed that at a reasonable price. They had these can drinks that I really responded and they were only 7 dollars. Ok, I know that saying something is only 7 dollars in this economy can seem out of touch. But a drink in LA most of the time will run you at least 12 to 16 dollars, and I think it is mostly on the 16 side. So finding a 7 dollar drink in a hot spot is refreshing. It was a Suncruiser- a vodka spirit based drink- that was part of their specials for their night. maybe is more expensive on other nights when it is not on special? After the drink Conrand and I stepped into their floor. It was the first time we were there and it is basically a basement game room on whatever it is that Bane takes to make himself go from puny human to muscle-on-muscle-on-muscle villain. There is a lot of pool tables maybe like 5, and I saw ping pong, and other table games. Additionally, instead of a speaker or a recorder- the one's that spin old timey records- there was a band. I took a short video of the band but I could not tell you if this band was good or bad or their name or their style of music. I was partly present, and I just heard the music, I did not appreciate the performers. It happens. So Conrad and I play all the time together. And I saw a guy playing by himself. We quickly introduced oursevles and then we played pool. Here is the thing that I am happy to write about this place. Unline a regular bar with a pool table, where every one knows your name, this place had the opportunity to meet new people. And I enjoyed playing with this guy. He was a new challenge. He had fresh stories. And he offered a view of the world I enjoyed. So this place offers the opportunity to meet new people over a game of pool. If pool is your thing than this place will make you happy an if pool is your way of meeting new folks then this place will make you happy and give you opportunities to find the folks you imagine you need in your life. In the final analysis, I want to go here again, and experience the place more broadly. Not sure if I will write a new Yelp, because even though I bared bone this one, it still gives the primary messages I want to. And to the guy who I played with thanks for having a good time with me, even if it was short. And sometimes, short, can be just enough.

If a restaurant automatically adds gratuity or service charge, especially for a single diner, that should be clearly disclosed before you order or at least be prominently stated in the beginning. A 20% tip should reflect exceptional service. That wasn't the experience I had. The lack of transparency left a bad impression and felt dishonest. With so many great restaurants in Los Angeles that offer better food, better service, and straightforward billing, I wouldn't recommend this place.
