Good food, and the staff was really friendly and attentive, even when we showed up with 20 people 15 minutes before the kitchen closed! Thanks for the great evening!

This place is outstanding. Dates back to the 1820’s. Atmosphere is that if an old Scottish Pub. Must visit for those that like a low key cozy atmosphere.

If old buildings aren't really your thing then the atmosphere might not be for you, but the food and staff are consistently very good! I appreciate that it stays open late, but to also offer some of the best pub food in Halifax at reasonable prices on top of that? GOAT

First time dining at the Henry House and it was a pretty disappointing experience. The fish and chips was the smallest portion I have ever received. The fish was not crispy at all, fries were mediocre. The table sitting next to us also ordered a fish and chips and the portion was much larger so not sure what happened. The server very clearly did not want to be there and it came across in his attitude. It was cool and drafty despite the fire places. Wouldn't eat there again.

We noticed this designated historic property near the accommodations we booked for a winter weekend getaway in the city. Fast forward a year and we now live here. Checked out Henry House after a live music event. The Drawing Room was open (only on Friday/Saturday), so we ventured upstairs instead of down to the traditional pub. What a lovely, classy and cozy lounge to enjoy a local draft beer or cocktail inspired by days gone by… early 1800s, prohibition era or modern twist on an old fashioned. 10/10 Bonus: Learned about the Halifax House architectural style.
Very cool old pub and a great place to stop for a pint and some food. The downstairs pub area had a nice fireplace going but the entire building has a great atmosphere.

Had an early fish and chips meal last night (Jan 24) and loved the atmosphere. The waiter (I missed her name) was delightful and helpful and enhanced the experience enough I'm writing my first review in decade.

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.

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 :)
