| - King Henry's is my go to local bar. I can confidently say that I have been to this bar more than any other bar in my life. Whenever I feel like going for a drink, a bite, watching a game, meeting a friend, or whatever the case may be, I typically head over to Henry's.
I've been frequenting this bar ever since my older brother took me there when I was 15 or 16 years of age. He was a regular, and per the usual knew everyone in there, so if I strolled in with him I was good. Long story short, this is a bar I have always felt very comfortable in.
You might be thinking this is a fancy or sleek looking bar with amazing food, service, and big flat screens, but it's really just a simple ordinary bar with an old fashioned styled décor. The venue itself is not all that big but uniquely layed out. There is a decent sized bar near the entrance and 5 or 6 tables slightly elevated to the left of the entrance. Towards the back are roughly a dozen booths which are fairly tight to the point where 4 people in a booth would be uncomfortably cramped. Solid for a date however ;)
The food is traditional pub grub and doesn't take forever to come out like some other bars. I almost always order the King's cheese fries: A sizeable dish of fat fries, smothered in gravy, bacon, cheese, and subsequently baked to sh!t. Aside from that stroke, the Philly Cheese Steak sandwich is soild, as are the fajitas and Arms Burger. Please note I claim the food to be solid, the food isn't blow you out of the water incredible, but def hits the spot.
Other notable mentions include Hoeegarden and Guiness on tap, clean washrooms and good service. The staff are also typically willing to accommodate your sport viewing needs as they have over a half dozen TV's throughout the pub. Catch you there for a pint.
