Great no fuss diner with massive portions and authentic vibe. Biscuits were a nice touch. Prices also very reasonable.

★★★
October 22, 2024

Some diverse menu offerings with a Greek twist. The breakfast selection was impressive. However, the food quality was mid-range, consistent with local standards. Serving sizes were smaller than expected, and in particular, the gyro was light on vegetables, and the single haddock portion was modest. I also found that modifications or upgrades to sides were not readily accommodated, even for an additional fee.

We loved our breakfast at Henry’s Diner! My wife had the special glazed doughnut French toast, and I went for the biscuits and gravy—both were fantastic. The portions were generous, and everything tasted amazing. Definitely recommend for a great local breakfast spot!

The service was great. The hostess and waitress were very friendly. My only negative is that they don't have any healthy substitutions for their home fries for most of their breakfast meals. I got the vegetarian omelette. They offered me either sliced tomatoes or grits as the "sub". I opted for the tomato. I got a fruit cup on the side which was okay. The omelette and bread have way too much oil/butter.

Great customer service and amazing food! Apparently known for their hash however we had lunch options and thoroughly enjoyed as well. I had the Philly chicken which had very tender chicken and gooey cheese. My boyfriend ordered the make your own wrap and thoroughly enjoyed that as well. Food came out hot! Would come back if in Burlington again.

I recently enjoyed a breakfast at Henry's Diner in Vermont, and it was a delightful experience from start to finish. The food was simply amazing—every dish was cooked to perfection and bursting with flavor. The highlight, though, was the exceptional service from the staff. They were attentive, friendly, and made sure we felt right at home. Their warmth and efficiency truly enhanced the dining experience. Highly recommend!

Super cute diner in the middle of downtown burlington. We had brunch there before exploring the city. The waitress was super nice and the service was really fast. 10/10 It was a bit pricey but i would say the portions were really good so it evens out.

Very bad service, we will not go again even if it was a must for years.

I ve been a loyal customer to Henry s for a year straight also new to Vermont. I love the food and all the service prior. I receive terrible customer service from a waitress who always given me bad energy whenever she works there. I ve never encountered this kind of service before. Henry s is a great place to eat and the staff is terrific but this one staff member who s new to the team doesn t embrace people of different cultures to well. So I think Henry s need to train new employees about diversity and inclusion and being respectful towards customers who come from different ethnic backgrounds. This incident to place this morning on12/3/24.

Cool vibe and great location. Sadly when we visited as a group of 2, we were in the waiting area with multiple other groups of 2 while there were three booths wide open. We were all waiting with ETAs of 20-25min as these tables were open and empty, and a family of 3 walked in and got seated immediately at one of the booths. Turns out they will not sit a group of 2 at a booth, and instead had 8 people crammed by the front door while a family walks in and skips all of the people waiting and gets seated.. what a horrible business decision to do that. Making guaranteed customers wait in favor of potential customers who may never come..? Makes no sense. You could hear the other groups discussing the frustration as well. My girlfriend loved the breakfast sandwich but there was nothing to write home about with the eggs benedict or homefries (home fries were cut into tiny bits and were dried out). Would go back sometime but never again if its remotely busy.

November 21, 2024

Food was horrible. Home fries were hard and rough, ordered turkey bacon and got charged extra just for them to taste like rubber. Food was very expensive for the quality to be so crappy. I will continue going to friendly toast. This restaurant is definitely not what i grew up on, so much has changed and not for the better. :(. Waitress was nice.

Really cute spot! Love the historical aspect, the food was good. Service was everything you expect it to be in a diner.

November 21, 2024

Went today on a recommendation. Was severely disappointed with what I received. The bread on my sandwich was burnt and the fries were soggy. I couldnt eat the fries as they did not have a very good taste. The sandwich with the burnt bread I just tolerated as I was hungry. My waitress was awesome, but there was another very loud one. She was very irritating to listen to and started talking about politics and bashing politicians. Was not appropriate for an employee inside a public restaurant. To say the least, I will not be returning or recommending.

Nice little diner walking distan e from where i stayed in downtown Burlington. Friendly on the ball staff and place was clean for a diner. Got my coffee before i had to ask for one, awesome. Had the phillie cheese steak skillet and it had good flavor but the potatos were from the day before and damm hard to chew, not burnt or over cooked but hard like cartlege. Not a big deal will def be back to try them again, hidden gem in my opinion and priced right!

Excellent food, great retro vibes. One area of improvement / suggestion is that the wait time estimates become more realistic. There were around 40 people in line and everyone around me was told 20 minutes, yet we waited for an hour to be seated...

Visited on a Saturday morning during the fall peak season. It was extremely busy around 11 AM. it is best to visit earlier in the day. Wait time was about 40 minutes. Portion sizes were great. Pancakes with Vermont maple syrup and bacon were tasty. Would have enjoyed more syrup, but I understand it was extra. We spent about $25 for two. Parking: Limited paid street parking available but also a parking garage is nearby.

September 21, 2024

Waited about 15 min for a bar seat. Waitress took my order but something felt off as she was almost walking away not looking at me while I m trying to order. Anyways about 45 min passes, no food, no refill on coffee, no check in about when the food is coming. I left. Something about the experience felt off to me. I m not making any claims but I know I won t go back or recommend.

Best place for lunch walking distance from the marina near Church Street. We wait a bit before getting in but its worth it. The coffee is good, everything is always good. The service too. You must give your name before waiting outside, when your table is free, you will be called on the intercom. The girl at the front desk is more busy taking sips of her coffee and looking at the floor rather than seeing you and taking your name, bother her and call your name. Which explains 4 stars and 5 name.

Overall good experience. There was a wait but it was quick (5 min or less). Service was prompt to get orders in etc, wait for food was a little better than average. Food was I would say standard diner fare done well. I am not sure if our server was not having a great day or not, but it felt like every time I took a bit of time to order or eat (I had them to return later to order, and she came over 4x to clear plates), but I definitely felt like they wanted us gone. I get it s a diner and the need for a quick turnover, but there was a large presence of move on .

My girlfriend ordered a vegetarian omelette, when it arrived she noticed it tasted like bacon! Turns out they cook their eggs in bacon grease and don t mention it anywhere. When we told our waitress she blamed us and was a bit rude but we did receive a new omelette (mostly) free of bacon grease. After we had finished our meal our waitress mentioned the homefries that came with the omelette were coated in bacon grease as well! My girlfriend didn t notice and would have been much happier not knowing what she had eaten. This certainly is not a safe restaurant for vegetarians. My food was really tasty though, I ordered the veggie skillet. Also, my eggs didn t have a strong bacon flavor like my girlfriends omelette. Vegetarian options: Vegetarian options are not really available here since everything is cooked in bacon grease

Sausage gravy from a can, frozen chicken fried steak. Bland food, bossy waitresses with attitudes for no reason, extremely rude, food was maybe luke warm. Gas station breakfast sandwich is better then this Sysco canned food. Responding to this review by asking for an email doesn t change the horrible service, the food from a can. Nor does it change the waitresses horrible attitude specifically the cook, who was yelling at everyone. You advertise homemade sausage gravy, when I watch you pour it out of the can and heat it up.

Being a Jersey Girl, I know my way around diners and this is one for the Diners Hall of Fame. First, it has been around for 99 years and was begun with a train car from Bayonne. Points for that, before the food even arrives. We drove up to Burlington for the eclipse from Jersey, not realizing that everyone within half a day s drive would descend on poor Burlington. When we ventured out for food this morning, everywhere had between an hour and 2 hour wait. Not Henry s. This place had a line outside so we were not optimistic, but they said 20 minutes. We had a table in 15. What magic was this? Here s the magic - the place is efficient as heck. The service was quick and friendly and top rate. (Thanks, Kim!) We had our food in about 10 minutes and everything was delicious. My son had two entrees! We plan to get there early tomorrow for breakfast just so we can try more of their entrees. We had some of the eclipse specials and everything we had was truly delicious in addition to being quick and very reasonably priced. This will be our regular place in Burlington for breakfast. With food and service (and prices) like this, I m sure Henry s will be around another 99 years!

Stopped by here looking for brunch. Note we waited about 15 minutes but thats because Burlington was definitely more bustling due to the eclipse. Our waitress and host were incredibly kind. I took our waitresss recommendation and went with the Irish Eggs Benedict while my boyfriend got the chicken fried steak. The food is super delicious -- if youre craving diner food this place will absolutely hit the spot. The price is also fantastic for the quality of the food and the size of it. The ambiance inside too is super cute and bright and its just a wonderful spot. Highly recommend and will definitely be stopping by again next time Im in Burlington.

Waitstaff were professional and were always attentive in keeping our coffee cups full Tables, chairs, and floors were clean. Diningware and cups were cute and the right size for eating and drinking (if youre one of those that like those details when eating out) Finally, the food and coffee were delicious! Nothing over-cooked or burnt. Even the toast was lightly buttered and delicious as is. They were able to make perfect eggs sunny-side up without the egg white being too runny If youre in Burlington, VT make sure you see this spot!

I love going to diners since I travel for work to see the local places. The building is small like a diner, The people at Henry s were very nice, and I felt well taken care of. Unfortunately the food left something to be desired. I had an omelet that came with breakfast potatoes and toast. The portions seemed small. The omelet I felt was small but tasty. The breakfast potatoes were spiced well but dry in your mouth and not very warm, and the toast was great. It was well buttered and toasted perfectly. I left with $20 with tip out of my pocket and not very full. Not a traditional diner experience.

Not from here. Heard this was a good place. Great food. Great waitress. Great atmosphere. Only knock was the girl seating people. EXTREMELY slow. No hustle in her. There were 8 of us waiting to be seated. 2 booths and 6 seats at the counter were open. Took her forever to get us seated.

Cute little diner. Breakfast was delicious. The server was friendly. It was a bit pricey for a traditional breakfast. Lock your car doors! unfortunately, the guy sitting at the table next to us, had a backpack stolen from his car, not long after parking it. When the waitress told him the bad news, that she saw the vagabond take off with his stuff, she didn t seem very surprised. Which means it must happen often :-( They should put up a small sign on the door beware of petty thieves, make sure your car is locked Just my opinion

Henrys Diner has been a part of my life since I was a teenager in the 80s and spent my hard earned dollars on a good meal with friends. Things have only become better since then and the prices are still very affordable. Theres a reason this place can have a line outside the door, b ut you can beat the lines if you get here early. Great food, great service and the interior is so much better than the old days. Keep doing what youre doing Henrys - Ill keep coming back!

Little nugget discovered on TripAdvisor. We are so happy we took the time to have lunch there. The plates were generous and very good value for money. Special thanks to the radiant Betty for serving us. A light 10 minute wait which was worth the cost for this return in time! Little extra for us: we could go by bike and park them in front of the restaurant! Dietary restrictions: Gluten-free option Kid-friendliness: Childrens portions, menu variety!

We stopped in for breakfast around 930am and got a seat at the counter. It was decently busy and we could see the food coming out of the kitchen. Service was a little slow but when my fiancé was ordering a sandwich the waitress was super annoyed. It was a burden for her to run through the cheese list so he could pick what he wanted, same with the bread choice. Overall, we all thought the potatoes lacked flavor and the bill for 2 coffees, kids short stack, 1 breakfast sandwich, omelet, and a side of hash came to $54! We wouldn t go back so it s good it was just a stop on a trip.

Im happy with changes at Henrys from years ago since I went. The food quality and consistency has greatly improved and i am very happy to have a downtown breakfast spot once again. thank you, Henrys!

I ve eaten at Henry s Diner several times, so my negative review isnt because of one random experience, but a pattern that I ve seen in the way the staff treat solo customers. The waitresses here seem to be constantly irritated, have an attitude, and they have no problem showing that in your face. If you re not going there as a couple, large(r) group, or with a bunch of middle-aged men, the staff can be dismissive and treat you like less-than. I usually sit at the bar, and in one or two occasions, I ve been ignored by the same server who did check, more than once, on the customers sitting exactly next to me. Today at the bar, I took someone s seat who left just before me. So after I ordered my coffee, I asked the server if she could wipe the part of the counter in front of me that was sticky. I asked this respectfully and in a low voice. The response? A loud, angry Well if you d sat in the other spot that was already cleaned blah blah I said don t worry about it , took my stuff and left immediately. Granted, there was one other available seat, but I took the seat at the end because I couldn t fit my bag at my feet where it was too close to another person. Even if you felt that my request was unfair, why should it be such a big deal that you openly and loudly humiliate your customer in front of everyone at the bar? If you wipe down after everyone leaves anyways, why should it matter so much? It just didn t warrant that kind of bitterness. I ve had more than one working-class type of job, and believe me, I get the frustration! But if you re constantly resentful and irritated, maybe switch to a business that doesn t need direct interaction with people. You can t love the money that customers bring in, and at the same time, disrespect them.

It is a great Diner if you know what to expect. It is small and it was very busy when I went there. The service was very good and the staff was friendly. The Omelette was a little smaller and there were less home fries on the plate than I am used to but the quality was very good and the English muffin was the largest and softest I have ever had. The English muffin alone might have been worth it.

Came from Boston on a trip and found my favourite breakfast place of all time. The Mrs. and I love breakfast more than anything and this is by far the best weve ever gotten. We usually look forward to bad diner coffee and flat pancakes but the coffee was fantastic and the pancakes fluffier than any restaurant Ive ever gotten from. Service was great and quick. Very friendly atmosphere. The entry/exit is narrow and busy which is the only downside/partly confusing part of the diner but head in if youre nearby. Absolutely glad we stopped in. Cant wait to go back on the next trip

Just had breakfast at Henry s 97 plus years but has had several owners over the years Not bad but not great and clearly not the best in Burlington Good food and service but squarely in the average column Parkway less than 15 minutes away on the other side of I 89 is the better choice from top to bottom Pancakes Ham Corned beef and omelet at Henris we re good but not in the category of let s return again A one and done experience Ham was tasty but not exceptional Pancakes were flat in taste and texture

If you want to wait 47 min for dried out potatoes, bland eggs and mediocre service, this is your place. For all the reviews and the wait, we all thought it was going to be really super. Its not. They jammed 6 of us into a booth. Since we were all so hungry by the time we were seated, we just dealt with it but as 6 adults we had to take turns cutting the dried out breakfast sausage because there wasnt enough room for each of us to use two hands. Burlington has so many great spots to eat. Look elsewhere.

In my experience, when they give you your milkshake along with the big metal cup with even more milkshake, you know the diner is going to be good. We went for brunch on a cold and rainy Sunday morning and it was exactly what we were hoping for. Even though there was a bit of a line outside things moved really quickly. Classic dinner ambiance. The milkshake was amazing. The eggs benny were delicious. Reasonable prices. Super friendly staff. Very quick service. Free refills on the coffee. What more could you ask for?
