Very good neighborhood pub. Took my son, the cajun fries and fish tacos were quite good. Service was as quick as it was going to be due to staffing shortages. As it stands, I couldn't really tell the difference in speed between before the pandemic and last night. If it was 5 minutes longer it wasn't worth noticing. read more

Excellent food, service and drinks! Bloody Mary was perfect and service was excellent. Enjoyed the atmosphere inside and the crowd had energy. Would like a little more of the inside decor vibe brought outside to create more "sense of arrival". read more

So with the reviews I think I may have had overextended hopes for this place. It's a strip mall restaurant, right next to a Chinese buffet. It can easily be missed. The inside is quite small. I ordered the chicken Alfredo. The chicken was quite nice, but the sauce was pretty underwhelming, but fixed with extra Parmesan. My husband got a burger and subbed poutine. I am a huge poutine fan, and this just didn't live up to the hype. It wasn't bad, it just wasn't great. The burger was decent and my son's chicken fingers were pretty standard as well. It also took a bit of time for everything to be ready. Our curly haired spitfire server was a highlight of the meal, though! read more

Ordered a Caesar Salad with chicken. Received a salad that had so much dressing on it, it was like soup - lettuce swimming in dressing that was watery and unlike any Caesar dressing I've had. I took one bite of the "chicken" and could barely swallow it. It was gross. Tasted like it was microwaved to be warmed up but then also tasted like it was a piece of rubber yet also raw at the same time. I don't know what the heck it was but I have never once in my life tasted chicken to have that flavor or texture. It's almost that they cook the chicken part way, store it till someone orders it, then finishes it in a microwave. I have no idea if it was even chicken. It isn't a grilled chicken breast, it had no marks on it whatsoever from either pan, flattop or grill cooking. Was it poached? Gross. I'm not one to send food back but this was an absolute joke. I politely sent it back, explained it was inedible and gross, that I do not want it replaced with anything else. Waitress apologized, but it's not her fault, it's the chef and kitchen staffs fault for serving what is quite possibly the most disgusting dish I have ever been served in my 40yrs of life. How the heck do you screw up a chicken Caesar salad like that? It was unbelievable. I'll never go back and feel queasy just thinking about that bite I took. Yuck. read more

Snapped at by either the manager or the lead waitress within 5 minutes of coming in. Haven't been to Henry's since before Covid. I won't be coming back. read more

The food was average to bad. I ordered the bruschetta and it was drenched and soggy. The bread had no crunch to it because of the gross amount of Balsamic Glaze that was poured over it. I hardly ever take the time to write reviews but I felt it needed to be done this time... Also the bartenders(she) seemed more interested in talking to people she knew than providing good service to all customers. The place looks great inside but the experience is really flat and dull along with below average to average food. read more

After reading the good reviews and listening to the hype, we were excited to try the place. I ordered the chicken bacon poutine because I've never had poutine of any kind. A salty mess. My wife had the gyro and fries which she said was good but later that evening she got sick. These two items and two beers were over $50. Ummm no I don't think we will ever go back. read more

We have been coming here since they opened. Creative menu for even the pickiest eaters (like me!). Burgers done perfectly to order. EXCELLENT scotch selection- the best in Okemos I've been to. Had the butternut squash soup and Brussel sprouts. Both also prepared and seasoned well. Great fries too! If you want the best burger in Okemos or other high quality food with lots of Michigan beer and liquor options and consistent friendly and attentive service, just come here. read more

Stopped for lunch. I had the chop salad my husband had the Cuban and my son had the Mac n cheese with bacon. All were very good!

We came here because it was on our way home from GVSU. It was in a strip mall but boy the food was fantastic and I had a cocktail called a Mahogany Manhattan that was absolutely wonderful! My husband got an Ace pineapple beer that was good too. We ordered Mussels as an appetizer and our entrees were a Henry Burger and a French Dip. The food was plentiful and delicious! read more

Quick date night with my wife and had been waiting to try this place. The service was excellent and the waitress was very attentive. The chicken chili was fantastic. Two weeks later I am still wanting to go back for the chicken bacon poutine. It was simply memorable and desirable. read more

Had a great afternoon at Henry's! Our bartender, Kelly, was attentive and made the best Old Fashion! Can't wait to go back!

Really fun neighborhood bar. Excellent beer selection and the food has been good whenever I've gone. The prices are pretty great and they have a late night happy hour. Henry plans quite a few tap takeovers, so there are usually some unique brews on draft. They also have bar trivia and darts. Be sure to check out the old Meridian Mall photo on the wall! read more

Really like the food and the atmosphere it's another hidden gem in the community. I had the godfather burger and my wife had the fish sandwich both were great. read more

Wow. So I've been living in Okemos for just about a year now and have had my eye on Henry's for quite some time. Tonight it finally happened. We went, we saw, we conquered... and we will definitely be going back. A tad bit pricy but not completely out of line. It's clean, the staff is extremely friendly and genuine, and the food is great! We had the "all in one" burger as well as the mushroom Swiss. Medium-rare perfection with juices overflowing. Completely satisfied. read more

Henry's Place - Fish & chips with house slaw. Had so much fun with the work crew tonight. Server was super nice! Give this place a try for sure!! - Cocktail Bars Near Me - Okemos, Michigan

Okra and great booze!! What more can you ask for? I LOVE this place!! The only complaint I have is that the main (daytime) bartender lady is always either all hot or all cold. She is either super nice or super rude and indifferent about your presence completely, like she's doing you a favor by waiting on you. She is not helpful or enjoyable. That rubs me the wrong way. I never know which one I'm going to get. Otherwise, everything is top notch! I love that the owner is always trying out new flavors in all aspects...food, cocktails, and events! You can tell he is open to new ideas and a forward thinking person. I hope Henry's will be around for a long time! It's one of my favorite places to go. read more

The four star average here is pretty weird. I visited on a Thursday with a group of five and had a lackluster experience. The service was meh. They forgot to give us menus, beer list is hard to read on the televisions, and our server was quite slow. I ordered a grilled chicken sandwich and it was also meh. I'm definitely not itching to go back. read more

It is a cute little restaurant. Very nice bar area with a lot of TVS. Menus had a lot to offer. I enjoyed my burger. You can tell a lot of the food is freshly prepared. Service was great too. No complaints. read more

Great Atmosphere, great food. This place is ran like a family owned establishment where they treat you with care and love. Food is delicious and menu very well thought of. They run different promotions from time to time so pay attention! Great place to watch Michigan State Spartans! read more

If you allow yourself to look past the seemingly bizzare location, you will find what I would argue is the probably the best bar and grill establishment in the Lansing area. I have been highly satisfied with everything I have tried on the menu, although my favorite items are the fish tacos and crab cheese wontons. It is clear that careful consideration is given to the food that is served to it's patrons, as well as their dining experience; the space is cozy and clean, and the staff service has always been exceptional in my experience. Highly recommended! read more

Went for a good bar burger- as was previously yelped. Not crowded, it was a Sunday about 4 pm. We ordered 2 classic burgers, medium. I didn't time the order but it took well over 40 mins to receive our dinners. Burgers were well done. Service was slow too- had to ask our waiter to pick up our payment. Will keep looking for that bar burger. read more

Not sure what her role is or if she should even have one, but the older lady that was wearing a grey sweat shirt is one of the most off putting persons I have ever encountered. She rushed us, took over 10 min to make our drinks when the bar was not full, and was down right snippy. Her attire was not in the least professional, as we could see her bra because her shirt was open in the back, and she reaked of cigs. She yelled at the kitchen and the other employees that were there. We will not be back sad to say, because of our experience and the hostile environment. read more

The service here was attentive and kind! After our party ordered a variety of different things off the menu, though, we all agreed that the food was just ok. For example the truffle fries were just your run of the mill diner fries, with just a little Parmesan and no discernible truffle flavor...underwhelming. We did enjoy the Bloody Mary and the mojito, mojito! read more

If you wanna go somewhere with great food, a fun and relaxed atmosphere, and friendly service then Henry's Place is the place! If I were living on campus, I'd definitely make the 5 minute trek to come here, because poutine fries. Those are a must. The mussels were really good although I would've preferred more of that yummy buttery wine infused liquid so I could sop my bread up with. If you're craving some good Asian buffet just go next door for that and then come to Henry's for a good drink or two! Whatever floats your boat. They also have darts and shuffleboard, yes! This will definitely be a staple whenever I come back home to East Lansing. Cheers and Happy Eating! :) read more

Really fun restaurant in Okemos. Some of the best fish tacos in the area in my opinion! Also have a really great euro. Different types of seating depending on your preference: sit at the bar, high table, or low table. Can accommodate large groups. Super friendly staff and great service. You might not be able to tell from the exterior, but this is a really great restaurant with lots of menu options. read more

This is a great local establishment. The beer list is comprehensive and the food has been good everytime. The atmosphere is comfortable and welcoming. read more

My sister and I stopped in while running errands around okemos. I was really excited to try it out. Definitely a lot smaller than I had originally thought. They have two dart boards for cricket and a vast beer selection. Upon walking in, it took a solid 15 minutes for anyone to stop by. The restaurant was not busy, but they could have been understaffed. Finally a waitress comes by to take our order, and it probably took another 15 minutes to get our drinks. We ordered a grilled cheese, chicken chili, crab cheese wontons, and truffle fries. Everything came out like warm. Wontons were exactly what you would find at a buffet. Couldn't taste any truffle oil in the fries. After reading so many good reviews, I was shocked our experience was the way it was. Service was terrible, but I try to give the benefit of the doubt if it was an off day. I think this place has great potential, but service needs to improve. I will come back to give them another shot. read more

We loved the M43 beer and the burgers! Now slide me those tix for the Rutgers game!!!

Great service and a delicious Bloody Mary. Fish tacos were excellent, too. Lots of screens to watch the game.

I don't know that we've ever received as good of service as we got at Henry's last weekend. Our server was courteous, prompt, and generous. The place has a relaxed vibe but great food, which don't always occur at the same place. read more

This is a great place to grab a burger or some top notch poutine. The menu selection is vast: from burgers and poutine to fresh oysters and tacos, everything we've tried has been delicious. My wife rates this place as having the best burgers in the Lansing area, and I agree. read more

I didn't know what to expect from a restaurant in a strip mall but I have been pleasantly surprised by each visit to Henry's Place. The fish tacos were great, ask for the avocado lime sauce. Give Henry's Place a try, you won't be disappointed. read more

Cool place with a decent atmosphere but a strange manager with a bit of an attitude. I'll keep looking. Where's Henry BTW?

Nice spot, in the land of yelp, times are tough. Visiting from Seattle, great beer, and very accommodating to a couple vegetarians. Fish sandwich was great! Great service as well! read more

Brand new pub! Their drink menu and on tap beers is great. We tried the wings and poutine fries both were very good. I had the special which was fish tacos and it was delicious. The only reason they received four stars was because they overcooked the burgers. My husband ordered medium rare and the burger came back well done. That's a big jump! Will definitely come back however! read more
