Waited outside after opening time for the doors to open. Staff completely indifferent. Have been there before and all was okay. But this experience very poor. Standards falling. Walked away.

Cozy quiet restaurant/pub that we don't visit enough just because of work schedules but every time we do go, my wife and I are always asking ourselves why we don't get down here more often.Great food. Great service. Good music in the background that isn't playing loudly so conversation can be had at normal speaking levels.I always get the bison burger since I don't have burgers, especially a really good one, all that often. My wife experiments more with the menu.Champagne tastes on a beer budget. ?Parking is seldom an issue unless you go during church hours as there's one behind the building.

A lovely small British style pub. Had the Drambooyah cocktail which paired well with the fish and chips. Servers are great. Wife had espresso martini which she really enjoyed.

There are a few things that immediately differentiate a restaurant from a really good restaurant for me: the music, the quality of the napkins, and whether they provide good mustard & hot sauces. I know that's a bit silly, but I can usually tell if I'm in a place I will like by these simple identifiers. So, with that being said, Henry 8 Pub was off to a rolling start when I walked in. Marvin Gaye was gently streaming off the speakers, at a comfortable level that allowed me to hear and speak with Naomi (absolutely wonderful bar staff here). The napkin, a thick soft high quality napkin - as weird as it seems - tells me immediately that the owners have pride in their food and that I can expect a good meal. And hot damn! A Restricted R Rated Batch quantified hot sauce showed up at the table when I ordered a smoked salmon Bennie. It is outrageously delicious.The Bennie showed up quickly, but not too quickly. The chef took time and care to plate it and it looked so good. I have nothing bad to say about this pub, they have nailed everything: fantastic service, comfortable atmosphere, delicious food. I wish these guys would teach courses to other pubs and show them how to up their game. 5 stars all around.
I go here about every other week to eat. The food is great and i really like the old style tavern feel to it. The gentleman that works the bar on the weekend is not very attentive and has given us an attitude before which was a bit annoying and rude. There is a lady who runs the bar at times who is absolutely great and I love when she is working. My rating is lower due to the gentleman who every time, lacks attentiveness despite how busy they may not be at the moment. Other than that, I absolutely love this place.

Great pub food and calm atmosphere.The staff were amazingly kind. We needed a place to work for a few hours and they shared the wifi and let us sit there (it wasn’t a busy time), drinking tea.Highly recommend the Guinness chocolate cake. Sinful!
