Here's my Yelp review on Henry's 12th Street Tavern!  


Stars awarded = 2


Wait service: great for how busy it is

Bartending service: Good for beer and simple well drinks

Food: Pretty good

Drinks: Generally good


Price: About average

Ambience: Good for your yuppies and people that want to be yuppies

If you're a yuppie, this is an absolute great place to go.  So why the three stars?  Well, I'm not quite up to yuppie status yet  :-(

The above rating would normally garner four stars from me, but I've taken one away for bartending service.  As noted above, I said it's good for beer and simple well drinks, but let's face it... even my 8 year old cousin knows how to serve draft beer and make well drinks.  Anything more than these duties might cause a mental breakdown with the bartenders at Henry's.  Allow me to explain: came here twice recently...

1st time: opened a tab, one of my drinks was a long island iced tea, it came back with a lot more than just a "splash" that it should come with (we're talking about a full shot of alcohol missing cause of coke substitution) but whatever, anger level only 1 out of 10.  Paid in cash upon leaving... didn't get my ID back... of course I forgot to make sure I did cause I wasn't quite in a remembering mood at the time, but it should've been returned upon payment.

2nd time: ordered some scotch whisky... bartender asks if I wanted rocks, I'll admit... that should've been the first clue, but I disregarded it because I wasn't in a higher level of thought mood at the time... anyways... I get mine straight up cause that's how I roll... but for my friend, I asked for a hint of water and to make sure he knew what I meant, I also said, "just a dash of water" for his.  So I probably shouldn't have used cooking terms because not everybody knows how much a "dash" is.  Anyhow, the bartender proceeds to water down the scotch enough to turn the deep amber color into a piss-like Heineken color as I grimace in horror... anger level 7 out of 10.  I just relived that moment while typing this and docked off another star.

In all honesty, I'll still go back to Henry's, but I won't order a drink other than beer from them again.  Or maybe I should order a rum and coke... maybe I will ask for just a splash of rum and then request a dash of change for my $2 bill.  Then I'll leave a real pinch of change for a tip.  Wow, that'd be nice... anger level would be 0 out of 10 if that happened
