Roadside local bar. Decent offerings, short on staff, no kitchen. Out of Sazerac Rye, Bill the barman gave us his riff. Wish I knew what he put in it, as they weren't Sazerac's, but really tasty. One drink & out, so, not the best judge.

I have had some of the best karaoke experiences here. Solid atmosphere on the weekend, drinks are decently priced, along with good service. Would recommend if you’re looking for a more casual and relaxed night out.

Great neighborhood bar with amazing bartenders. Icy cold beer and Twisted tea. Could not ask for more.

Very local bar with very local people. Bubble machine outside led me to peek in. Next thing you know, I'm sipping on a local brew, the Abita Amber. Very neat spot for a cheap beer.

Great Neighborhood Bar! Joe, Jordan, and Bill are some of the best bartenders in the city. Friday nights are timeless.

Henry's is my go-to bar, and my favorite of all time. Cozy vibes, amazing bartenders (Joe, Jordan, and Bill don't miss) and affordable drinks. As a bonus, there are food pop-ups that come occasionally, clean bathrooms, trivia on Wednesdays, and karaoke on Fridays. As a bonus to the bonus, they're open for Mardi Gras parades and the perfect spot to hang. There's a reason I spend so much time here.

Bill is a phenomenal bar tender! He always takes care of his patrons and he actually makes bomb a** margaritas if asked for! But his bourbon drinks are BOMB!

My friends and I have been visiting New Orleans annually for 30+ years. We love it so much. This year we opted to stay in the Uptown area along Magazine Street, and we looked forward to exploring the neighborhood and trying new places. Henry's Uptown Bar looked like a classic old-man bar that could become our local favorite as our seven friends arrived one by one.On our first afternoon we stopped in to ask if they served food. The bartender was brusque and said no, only tapas on certain days. We thanked him and went on in search of some lunch. We had just flown in. Later we returned with another of our friends and we ordered margaritas to celebrate our first day back in New Orleans. Our friend said, "let's get a pitcher!" The bartender, Bill, looked appalled at us and hissed in an arrogant, petulant voice, "I am NOT a Mexican restaurant!" From then on he was 100% rude, and for no other reason than his own pomposity. He ignored us and sat down low behind the bar, watching a Yankees game on one of the big TVs. Forget about this place. We thought it might become our nightly spot for a couple of weeks, but after that experience we never went back. And never will. Bill is the worst bartender we've ever met in our lives. What a creep, and what a disgrace to the traditional gracious hospitality of the great city of New Orleans.
