Hennigan's Restaurant And Bar

Well I realized why I haven't been to Hennigans in 20 years.. Service was terrible, waited an hour for food was mediocre at best .. and the unopened malt vinegar given to us was 2 years past it's date

Slimy, off color, foul smelling. Words a chef loves to hear when describing a finely aged blue cheese, but not when it comes to talking about cured meats. We had our annual kitchen Christmas party here this year as we have had for the past many years. We've traditionally ordered pizza in the past but decided to switch it up this year. The buffalo chicken dip was amazing! The tortilla chips were light and crispy and obviously made fresh. I didn't get to try the mozzarella sticks bc they got absolutely gobbled up before I had a chance but the marinara sauce was nice. The cheese and vegetable trays were pretty standard and acceptable. Then we got to the meat tray. While most of the meats were of good quality there was a ring bologna that did not fly with any of our staff. It was slimy, greyish and smelled rotten. Being a 25 year professional in the industry I understand that things happen and sometimes less than quality product makes it to the table. I can forgive this. What I can't forgive is blatant ignorance by management when a problem is presented to them. Manager Lisa gives off big Kitchen Nightmare vibes. She was willfully ignorant and blindly defensive when I brought her a sample of the obviously rancid meat and told me "I tasted it and it's fine", which it clearly was not. Instead of working with me to make amends, she went into a spiel about how she's been doing this for years, and how clean and organized their kitchen is and blah blah blah. (Insert any random and clueless face from that famous Gordon Ramsey show here.) Defending your staff is one thing and I get it. Willfully disregarding a legitimate complaint and putting people at risk for a food born illness takes a special kind of person though. Lisa is that kind of person. Her argument of "it's been sitting out for two hours" flies in the face of reason. First of all, why would one serve a product that is known will be sitting out for an extended period of time if that product will not last that long. Secondly, these are cured meats we are talking about. It takes weeks or even months for them to develop the level of slime and rancid smell that this ring bologna had on it. Even potato salad is LEGALLY allowed to be left out for 4 hours before being thrown away as per the USDA guidelines as it contains mayonnaise which can spoil quickly. We're talking blazing hot summer days here with the sun beating down. Not a climate controlled environment like a bowling alley. Long story short we will be looking for a new location to host our Christmas party next year which is a shame as we really do enjoy our yearly bowling outing. Nice job, Lisa. I hope you get your act together before you make someone tragically ill.

Insanely expensive bar food. If you order takeout, they secretly tack on 10% for gratuity (even though you're not being served??). They charge almost double what they should for meat as well (i.e. Caesar Salad = $13 + Chicken = $5 = $18 Salad??? - It's a $10-$12 salad at best...) The food you get is worth roughly 2/3 what you pay - it's just okay! I don't understand the 5 stars from everyone. It's a bowling alley/bar. Crazy *$20 Quesadilla in photo ($22 after surprise tip)

We came in from Pittsburgh and didn't want the fast food choices. Really pleasantly surprised. Cuban was excellent and the onion rings were perfect.

We loved coming to the deck which we disappointedly found out it’s closed indefinitely
Sadly the food is good
The restaurant is dated
You lost eight good customers
Many more via word of mouth and social media
Big business mistake not opening the lovely deck

Traveled to PA from Texas and wanted to try this place. Got there at 9:15 and it took a good 5 minutes for anyone to even acknowledge me. I was going to place a Togo order. Was shocked to learn that they were shutting down the kitchen and couldn't serve me even though the restaurant doesn't close til 10.Disappointing.
