Henry's - Wallingford
About This Spot
Nestled along a quiet stretch of N Colony Street in Wallingford, Henry’s unfolds as a comforting corner of familiarity in a town that values genuine connections. From the moment you step inside, the steady rhythm feels unhurried — like settling into an old friend's kitchen rather than a typical restaurant. It’s a space where the worn wooden tables carry stories and the modest décor invites you to slow down and breathe in the warmth of a place that has welcomed locals for years.
Henry’s exudes the gentle ease of a beloved neighborhood breakfast spot, where each visit offers a reassuring sense of homecoming. The air hums softly with lively chatter—a mix of early morning regulars, families sharing weekend moments, and passersby discovering their new favorite nook. It’s not about flash or polish here; it’s about the sincere atmosphere and the human touch that makes every meal feel intentional and unhurried.
Breakfast at Henry’s embodies the kind of simple, heartfelt cooking that comforts without pretense. Whether it's the hearty embrace of a bacon, egg, and cheese sandwich or the nostalgic sweetness of chocolate chip pancakes, each dish feels thoughtfully prepared and satisfying in its familiarity. The menu leans into straightforward classics, lifted by genuine care rather than flashiness—reflecting the same down-to-earth spirit that Henry himself brings to the table.
What truly sets Henry’s apart is that lingering sense of connection—between guests, the food, and the space. The owner’s welcoming presence quietly anchors this, turning strangers into regulars and encouraging a spirit of belonging. In a setting where friendly hellos are as integral as the comforting meals, Henry’s stands as a quietly cherished part of Wallingford’s daily fabric, inviting visitors to slow down and savor small, human moments along with their coffee.

Eating at Henry’s makes you feel like you’re right at home. Went for breakfast with a couple friends and we all had great dishes. I got the bacon egg and cheese breakfast sandwich, a friend got a sausage egg and cheese breakfast sandwich and another got chocolate chip pancakes! The big draw to Henry’s though is Henry himself. He is, without a doubt, the most endearing and sincere man! We had such a great conversation with him about music. Henry has such a great heart and it’s evident in the food. It’s made with love. It’s made with care. If you’re looking for a cozy, no fuss spot to get a great bite, cannot recommend Henry’s enough.

I was in Wallingford for car service. While waiting we walked down the street and came upon Henry's. The service was very good, greeting us as we entered. The kielbasa cheese was delicious and at very reasonable price.

First visit, and I had marvelous steak tips and eggs. Friendly service, and you feel welcomed like coming home to family. I look forward to trying Henry's lunch and dinner options!

Was shocked to read some of the negative reviews after eating here a handful of times. The owners are so incredibly friendly and nice. The food is really consistently good. I always get pancakes but my boyfriend gets breakfast sandwich, home fries and hash(he said the hash is really good.) yes, the place looks kinda run down but it's clean and in a old building. Definitely our new go-to spot. Strawberry shortcake is delicious!

Henry’s is the absolute best! Their food quality, service, and atmosphere are all outstanding! Henry really makes you feel at home and his pot roast is literally the best I have ever eaten! My teens love his burgers.

Breakfast with love and then some. We had an awesome breakfast after a red eye flight from Vegas. It was a late breakfast and we had the place to ourselves with Henry. Super nice guy. Best eggs Benedict over corn beef hash, I've had. And the pancakes were melt in your mouth, delicious. He's been around for about 4 years and I wish we would have come sooner. We found our new breakfast spot!!

My first visit. A simple place and very clean. The owner is friendly and you can see him work in the kitchen while he makes your food. It’s like eating in your dad’s kitchen. The food was very good. My only complaint is I had the lobster roll and the bun was soggy. I’d like it toasted more so the butter doesn’t completely destroy the bun. Burgers were excellent and the crab cake and ribs were also yummy.

We had apple cinnamon pancakes, french toast, eggs with corned beef hash. Everything was made by the chef and it was all delicious! Everything tasted homemade, fresh and made with love! One of the best experiences I've had in a dining establishment. So so happy we came here. Evening should come and experience Henry's
