Henry Street Ale House - Brooklyn

Good beers and food. Kind people and friendly service. I'll visit again!Food: 5/5

The girlfriend and I weren’t terribly impressed with this place. All the food we got was not in line with what we had expected. We were especially disappointed by the chicken tenders, which were nothing like the stereotypical chicken tender you’re going to get anywhere else. They’re battered with tiny (I mean tiny) slivers of chicken. Don’t think we will go back if we are craving bar food of any kind. Fried pickles were decent though.

A little on the pricey side, but the selection is really nice. I can’t speak to the food but it’s all local beers and I only knew 20% of them. Bartender was pretty nice too. Extra points for playing John Coltrane on a Sunday night ??

Found this pub after walking over the Brooklyn Bridge from Manhattan. Lovely spot to stop for a bite to eat and a few pints. It's an old-school local bar with a great atmosphere. Tasty food, great service and a really good atmosphere. If you're looking for somewhere for good grub and a few drinks while visiting Brooklyn, I recommend the Henry Street Ale House

Hmmm so i tried henry street ale house on two separate occasions. the first time was a male bartender and he was great! we ordered a few rum and cokes, a margarita, and a long island. you can tell he was an experienced bartender. he perfected those drinks. i told myself i had to come back: a plus that the ambiance was very low key. fast forward to today, our experience wasn 't as great. this time i started with a long island. the bartender seemed to fumble with my drink a bit. she also kept complaining about how busy it was which is understandable, it was def crowded. when i took a sip of my drink, wow. so bad. i hate to be the person who returns a drink. i tried so hard to like it but it was so off. i eventually just asked another bartender if she can remake it. our original bartender comes back and mentions that they never make long islands (yet i ordered one my previous visit no problem). so instead, i opt for a rum and coke. she mentions in a condescending tone that i lucked out because long islands are very expensive and rum and cokes aren 't. uhm ... sure? i mean it wouldn 't have been a problem if you made it correctly but go off? lol! i ordered one more rum and coke and asked for the check. i most likely wont be back. the food def looked good tho, i wish i tried it before i wrote them off.
