February 2026 Update - I decided to give Henderson's a second chance due to a promotion offered by them. Upon entering (lunch hour), was immediately greeted by Liam the Bartender/Server. Good start. Food (Burgers w/ fries and Onion Rings). Truly, one of the absolute best burgers I have had in several years! No kidding. Nothing like my previous experience. Great food & great service. Seriously, give them a try. Also, they are Local, another reason to try them out! Only negative is there is a small added charge to use a credit card. Really not a fan of this kind of policy but on a $20 something bill the fee was only about .50 Overall I strongly recommend Hendersons, I will definitely be returning again! read more

4.5/10 burger. It was nothing special. The meat was cooked exactly how I asked, so that was nice! But the patty lacked flavor. I liked the mushrooms on the burg. Those were yum. Onion rings were average too, but they gave a TON of them, so extra point for them lol. Also the bartender who took care of me was really nice. read more

Four adults and three little ones came in for an early dinner. Since it was early, we had no problem being seated right away at a large table in the back. We started with some chips and queso and mozzarella sticks. Both were pretty good. We then shared 2 pizzas and I had the steak bowl. The pizzas are all flatbreads, which was a little disappointing. But, they also tasted pretty good. Service was spot on and we were well taken care of. It has a large full service bar area. I felt this is really a bar with some food, which was fine. Lots of TVs around, so this would be a good place to watch a game and have a beverage. read more

I arrived at opening on a Thursday and was welcomed by Liam. Not many inside while I ate but we all were greeted and received our food in a timely manner. Great 1/2 pound burger cooked the way I wanted. I was surprised by the perfectly cooked fries. Most good or great burger places have weak or just horrible fries. Very laidback atmosphere. I'll be back. read more

Liam was great! Chicken wings were great! Ice ice cold beer. Will be back. Very clean. Great stop.

Food was ok we hit an appetizer sampler and fries, which came out cold. Service was super slow. Took a long time to get our food. sports bar ambiance and basic decor but a nice mural of downtown Tampa on one wall read more

Went in for wing Wednesday. Great food, great atmosphere. The bartender was cool! Great place to watch some football. Looks like a good after hour entertainment spot. read more

Giving it 2 stars because of the service. When you walk in you seat yourself, it felt weird nothing like the pictures, was thinking i was going to walk into more of a yard house kind of place. But it's like an actual bar bar, The bar had a few people wasn't too busy for a Friday. We sat down and waited for a while...... till we had to flag someone to get their attention. Ordered our food, the food was decent for a bar. Ordered a soda and it was water with ice.... Yuck, switched it to a lemonade. The bill was about $50-$60 for pizza , sticks and 2 lemonades. Wouldn't return. read more

The food was ok, but I have had better burgers in South Tampa. Maybe it was an off night in the kitchen, but my burger was super dry. I wasn't crazy about my cocktail, but I blame myself for ordering the wrong drink because I did enjoy my husband's cocktail. I appreciate that the restaurant is super chill and family friendly, but I wish there were some arcade games instead of the claw machines. My kids insisted on playing the claw games and then were devastated when they didn't win. I'm not much of a sports fan, but this looks like a great spot to watch a game on the big screen. My husband seems to be a fan so I would give this spot another try. read more

Best wings in tampa hands down. Baked or fried. WE LOVE THIS PLACE Bartenders are cute, food is good, games are ON!!! read more

The food is amazing i personally recommend the chicken parm sandwich the service is also good all of the servers are super friendly and attentive read more

Awesome new sports and cocktail bar serving up elevated bar food in a super fun atmosphere. The restaurant is located in the space formerly occupied by Tampa Pizza Co, but Henderson's is much better than its predecessor and offers a terrific menu consisting of meatballs, pizza, burgers, wings, salads, etc. The meatballs and Caesar Salad are the best ever! Trust me...you have to try them! The pizza and wings are delicious. I really like the industrial modern decor. Overall, it's a great place to watch the games, grab a bite, or just chill sipping on a cocktail. The restaurant is open late which is great. They also plan to bring in DJs, musicians, etc. Definitely check it out!!! read more

Great food, horrendous prices. Look at the price of double Woodford and diet. More than most steakhouses in the area. Not sure if the bartenders charged incorrectly -they insisted this was right-but this is absurd. 3 drinks for $80 at a local neighborhood BAR in Tampa!! NO THANKS. Will never be back because of this-too many other local restaurants and bars to support that don't rip the customer off. **On a review about this same subject left on a different platform, Hendersons marketing representative chose to comment "Maybe you should order a drink next time that fits your budget." Mind blown that this is their response read more

Best wings in Tampa!! I got out my way to get the spicy buffalo flavored wings. Also great vibes and plenty of TV's to watch spots. The staff members are always nice and it's always good service. The watermelon high cocktail is very good too. read more

I went to Henderson's while visiting my sister in Tampa. The food was good but I recall asking what kind of fries they serve (shoestring? Steak? Crinkle?) and the server didn't know what kind they serve... then he said they were skinny so I got onion rings instead but the fries my sister got were amazing looking steak fries. I was pretty bummed I didn't get the fries. It wasn't very busy in there except for a loud kids sports team having lunch. I left my purse on my chair and when we came back for it more than 20 minutes later, our table hadn't even been cleared yet. read more

This was our second time trying this place because the first time we had good burgers although they were a bit expensive. Tonight we walk in and it was half empty & the sign says seat yourself...so we did and sat there for 8 minutes without anybody acknowledging us!!! On our way out, I stopped and talked to the manager after watching him play on his phone and talk with several servers while we sat there. All he wanted to know was where we were sitting!!! This is not the kind of family restaurant we need in our neighborhoods, most of the patrons were college boys drinking pitchers...save your money!!!!! read more

We went there for the first time today with family from out of town. We showed up on Sunday at 12:10 and the doors were locked and nobody answered the phone. The Yelp hours showed it was supposed to be open. Oh well.... read more

This is a kid friendly, sports bar with a full liquor license. So, naturally, we checked it out. Food is fairly standard bar food: burgers, pizza, etc. They have a cocktail list full of user-friendly libations. We went on a Friday evening, and we were able to find a table right away. Service was a little slow, but the waitress was friendly. We ordered: a passionfruit pisco sour, a strawberry basil gin fizz, some sodas, fried calamari, a burger, a fig and prosciutto pizza, and two kids meals. The alcoholic drinks came out pretty quickly. We had to remind our server about the sodas. The calamari came out quickly, but the rest of the food took quite a bit longer, maybe because there were pizzas in the order, or maybe because of staffing issues. The waitress apologized that we waited so long. The food was good. The calamari was quite good with tender calamari and crispy - and not too salty - breading. I think the fig and prosciutto pizza could have skipped the goat cheese without losing anything from the dish, but it was still tasty (more a flatbread than a pizza, but that's okay too). My daughter loved her kid pepperoni pizza (it was the same size as my adult pizza, but for a kiddie meal price). My son thought the chicken tenders were only okay. My husband loved his burger. My husband didn't like either cocktail and ended up ordering a beer. I thought both cocktails were good but not great, so if we return, I'll stick to wine or beer. The place felt clean, and I loved the 90s music. There's plenty of parking in the private lot. read more

New venture that replaces a former pizza parlor whose signage is still evident if you look around. Typical bar food menu features burgers, pizza and wings. But the real attraction are the daily specials. On a Monday, I enjoyed half off martinis ($5-6) and $5 meatball sliders, of which you get only 2, not 3, as you would for full price. Drinks were well made and poured by the very busy lone young bartender. I would return just for these alone. The sliders left me hungry for more. The regular burgers look delicious as do the very good appearing pizzas. The concept is just another average sports bar. But they plan live music on Fridays. So that would be a great attraction if they pull it off. By early evening, things had slowed down a lot. Since I am neighbors here, I will probably return often as there is no reason not to make this a regular spot for drinks and occasional meals. read more

FoodieIQ Score = 8.8/10 (Impressive!) This is simply just a GREAT A** burger to be honest!!! It was cooked to perfection, super juicy, every component blended well together, and the truffle aioli just complemented the mushrooms and carmelized onions so well! The fries ..... oh man don't get me started on the fries. Best fries I've ever had at a bar or restaurant hands down. They were crispy, seasoned and coated well with the right amount of spice, and the parsley is always a must! They were not salty which is the #1 thing most restaurants do but it didn't need anything. No ketchup, no sauces, no extra salt or pepper, nothing. It's perfection so just enjoy it as it is! :) Like guys please try this place next time you want a burger or fries because the food was simply incredible! The best I've ever had at a bar and it's not even close! Also, they have some interesting cocktails too so I'll def be back to try some of those. read more

It's super loud on Cowboy football days but the service and food (chicken) has been spot on each time. We've visited about four times, each time with other people and kids. Each time we've all agreed the service and food were good. read more

Opens at 5pm , martini and meatball Monday was spot on! Taking a spot at the bar, its very open and light, great clean bar area, beautiful interior. Billiards table and a dart board and touchtunes. Martijis are excellent, espresso martini with fresh espresso (nespresso) with each martini, creamy or non creamy. Bartender Alayeah(?) very friendly and knowledgeable of the menu. We chose the meatball sliders to start, fresh, meaty, great bun with garlic butter, tasty!!! Flatbreads and baked wings were perfect, what a hreat neighborhood bar!!! Looking forward to next Monday, or any other day! read more

Great neighborhood bar and restaurant. Reasonable prices. Well maintained. Very nice and knowledgeable staff. However they don't return phone calls if you leave a message on their voicemail about mistakingly leaving your jacket at their restaurant. I'll still go back. read more

The food excellent. The server Julia was outstanding. The music way too loud and probably not appropriate for the young kids that were running around inside. Suggestion : make it a fun bar or a good fun place for families. But both does not seem to work too good. Looks more like a bar to me. When you wake up in that is what you are hit with - a nice BIG bar. Good luck. Great burger!!!! read more

Great bar plus a fun family atmosphere to bring your kids to. Food and service were excellent. New owners. Highly recommend!

The food was good, service was friendly, but kids running around and being very very loud with no parental supervision ruined the experience. read more
