I can’t believe I have never put in a review for this Halifax gem. This place has been a perennial favourite since before it was Henry House - back when it was the Granite Brewery this spot was a regular hang out during all of my uni days - I even had my rehearsal dinner here (for my first wedding lol). It’s always been amazing. Great food, great vibe, with a different feeling on each of its three floors. The basement is more of a proper pub, somewhere to hang out, have pints, study or watch the Coronation Street omnibus. The main floor has a beautiful fireplace and a slightly more formal (but still relaxed) vibe. The curry is great, but my personal favourite has always been the smoked salmon Club sandwich with their house salad, which is divine with blueberries, goat cheese and a balsamic mix vinaigrette which just makes it sing. The pastas are also a big hit, as are all of the traditional pub dishes - bangers and mash, pasty of the day. So good! This place is a landmark, both historically and gastronomically, so do yourself a favour and go!
This place slightly off the beaten path has become a favorite in our visits to Halifax. We love the pub decor on the basement floor, but everyone was ecstatic about the drawing room visit for out of this world cocktails. It's only open on Friday and Saturday night but I don't think I've ever seen a nicer pub. The setting is amazing. You feel like you go right back in time. Mason, the mixologist should be given the Order of Canada for his concoctions! He was 100 % of the time on the money. You just had to ask what type of taste you were looking for and he executed perfectly. We were a group of five. We were supposed to stay for one drink. Ended up have 5 or 6 and ordered a fantastic dinner while we were there. Mason and Adina made our night. This visit was the highlight of our boys trip. We'll be back next year. But we're secretly hoping to attract Mason to bartend one of our Ottawa summer partys this summer! Well done Henry House. You've got a gem.
Wife had Steak pot pie fresh cut fries, I had fish and chips. Both excellent. Glad we stopped in during our east coast trip. Located in a Beautiful historic building inside and out.
The best restaurant in the city. Don't be fooled by national reviews that tout other spots in the city etc. this is our go to in the city, the food is always spot on and the drinks. Also my mother in law loves it which says a great deal :)
Wow!
This is an exceptional hidden gem.
We loved the split dining areas. Basement/ main level and upstairs based on if you want louder to relaxing.
Being British I ordered the Cornish pastie and to my surprise it tasted fantastic. Very well cooked to us British standards.
Definitely recommend with great menu!
Oh the Henry House ♥️ so much love for everything they do. Our last visit was spent at their christmas high tea for our anniversary. They went above and beyond. The atmosphere was cozy and inviting, the food - to die for, and the customer service always leaves you feeling like you’re a part of the family. We will return time and time again.

I went to Henry House for the first time just last weekend.
I am so happy I went. Everything was great from the food, to the staff, to the beautiful decor.
Henry House is a sweet little place to go have some food and/or drinks, with very kind staff and a lovely atmosphere.
We started with some nachos, which our waitress told us would be a very nice size, cheesy portion, also some of the best nachos in Halifax & she was spot on. I have never eaten nachos with pineapple on them before but I actually liked it more than I thought I would. The portions were a great size & the prices were decent. We also ordered some calamari, which was done perfectly and the sauce that came with it was delicious.
We then ordered and shared a club wrap and Caesar salad, which I had to take my portion to go, but enjoyed later that evening at home and it was just as great as the rest of the food.
I ended with a slice of chocolate beer cake, I normally wouldn't order chocolate cake but the waitress again recommended it and she was again spot on that it would be as good as she said it would. It was rich and tasty. I loved it & would recommend it as well.
I didn't get the waitresses name that night but she was very friendly and personable, she told us allot about the history of the house and made the food recommendations that we enjoyed very much.
Our experience was great.
I will definitely be returning to Henry House in the future.
Big portions. We were from the US on a cruise so I don't know about pricing but it seemed reasonable for the amount of food. Old building, lots of character.
What a treat. A beautiful old building, amazing waiter, great food. After a very poor dinner the day before it was exactly what we were looking for.
Service was very good, our waiter treated us well. The time from sit down to eating was good and the food was fantastic. Now although some suggestions recommended the fish and chips I went with the ultimate burger and wasn’t disappointed. My wife had the beef and mushroom pot pie and she thoroughly enjoyed it. Drinks were cold and restaurant was clean. Downstairs provides a very nice ol’school feel.
