King Henry’s Arms

Went with some friends last night.
On the great side is the beer selection here is top shelf.
Lots to choose from from local to imported.
Food is ok if you like stuff from a fryer for the most part.
Staff is a great bunch if you can understand their humour.
Atmosphere is where we need an update and a cleanup.
I think they need to fix it us after all the years.
Price was fair considering the other local options.

I came here as it is close bar to my house. I like it more than archepad which is the other bar close by. They have good deal. On Tuesday amazing pizza I think it is the best deal in here as the pizza are tasty and well made. Other days deals are good as well on wed they got 5 pitchers of creemore which is good as well. Over all the place is nice they got good amount TV screens and great deals for a bar at this location. I will recommend this place to ppl living around

King Henry’s Arms has that comfortable local pub atmosphere. We liked the service very much, friendly staff, good food, we will stop by again!

Great Pub with live music!

Sometimes even I take a good place for granted — guilty. You all know what I mean. You visit regularly, you eat their food, drink their booze and then don’t call or visit for awhile. It’s sort of like that «person» you call when you’re not dating anyone or are between relationships, not for anything physical but just for the comfort of not being alone.
It’s a sad trait and when it happens to a place like King Henry’s in Richmond Hill I feel extra bad because they’re often overlooked but are doing so many amazing things in this Richmond Hill staple that they deserve our patronage.
Like, did you know that King Henry’s has one of THE best rotating selections of Craft Beers on tap here? True story. I would challenge you to find a spot in the Hill that has had more OCB’s on draft then KHA. Heck they even signed up to have the extremely limited edition Unilocal beer on tap when Great Lakes developed it in November of 2014.
But is the beer enough to make you venture to this plaza at the corner of 16^th and Yonge? Probably not unless you’re a Hop-​Head purist. So here’s another reason, their food is bloody fantastic. From simple pub foods like wings, which are massive, to their unique offerings like pot pies (kidnet, steak, chicken, etc) without the pie portion (more of a stew with pie crust laid on top), KHA has the eats that make your tummy feel good!
Now I’ve read some reviews mentioning that the space is touch dated and while that may be true, it’s only a matter of time before it gets a facelift but that isn’t important to me. What I love about this place is all that I’ve mentioned before plus the awesome staff and quirky regulars. The regulars are an awesome bunch whom you can find seated around the bar at all hours talking sports and even some nonsense sipping on domestic ales for hours at a time. I’ve sat amongst them and while they bare the prickly exterior of the a-​typical regular, their the nicest gang and welcome most folks into their conversation (provided you’ve got something of merit to add in).
Since the closing of Canadian Tire and Futureshop in the area, you might not have the added drive to venture into the plaza, but if you’re considering the McDonalds next door, simply part your car and come in, you’ll be much happier with your choice, the food and heck the prices aren’t too bad either.
I dig this place and all that it is!
Eatcrest Out

Their chicken wings is the bomb. I live in Mississauga but drove all the way up there for the wings. We ordered honey garlic, sweet chilli and mango chipotle.
Half price wings on Mondays.

My girlfriends and I decided to have a night out away from our husbands and children. One of the girls lives in Richmond Hill and her car was in repairs, so we all had to drive up there. We ended up going to her neighborhood pub King Henry’s Arms. We didn’t want to do anything too crazy, and just wanted to sit down and have a couple drinks while we catch up. The waitress was really nice and friendly. She was fast at getting all of our drinks and food. I ordered the ribs and they were quite god for the pub food. The drinks were made well also. Not too strong, but had just enough kick to it.
Everything was fine until a couple of drunk guys from the table next to us started discussing our physical appearance. We ask them to shut up and mind their own business, yet it had no effect. We called a waitress and the only thing that she could suggest was to move to another table… We paid our bill without finishing the food and left. I don’t think we’ll be coming back.

I just spent a lovely couple of hours at King Henry’s with my daughter for lunch. Whenever she comes home to visit she always wants to go to «the Pub». I had the Steak and Spinach Salad, It was excellent! Generous serving of steak, cooked perfectly as I asked, crisp spinach, sauteed mushrooms and aged cheddar. The dressing was fantastic!
I noticed that the owner’s have refurbished the booths and they are much more comfortable then past reviews would have you think.
Don’t come here expecting a fancy place, come here expecting good food, friendly faces and really funny servers and you won’t be disappointed.

Just a suggestion, but the banquette seating has sunk pretty bad and they need to be fixed. I feel like a four-​year old with how high the tables are in the booth.

what can i say? average pub, nothing fancy. Staff seems to run the place to the ground, bad attitude and bad service. I only walked in here because Lonestars was too busy

I was invited to meet a couple of my Unilocaliest friends here the other day. I had never been here, and was looking forward to it, as the reviews were good, and my friends have always steered me in the right direction in the past.
Unfortunately this time was a bit off target. I walked in to a pretty empty small pub, and was nearly run over by the waitress rushing around. The beer selection is minimal, but as previously mentioned there are a few craft beers rotated on tap.
As mentioned by Jennifer K, they have an appetizer special of 50% off, which brings the prices to reasonable considering the size of the portions, and the quality of the food. The Yorkshire Pudding sounded like an interesting selection, but when i saw it, I was less than impressed, the gravy didn’t look too appetizing at all, and the puddings were burnt on the outside and very eggy, and heavy, not light and fluffy as one would expect. The King’s Fries weren’t the worst, but it’s poutine, nothing fancy.
I’m cowardly, but at least my Unilocaliest friend had the waitress take it off the bill, after the waitress tried to convince us that was how it was done there, never in my life have I heard of well-​done Yorkshire Puddings.
They didn’t really have anything on tap that was of my personal preference. This and poor food prep is all the reason I need to to come back.

3 star for having Seasonal Craft Beer on draft
1.5 star for food
I have been to King Henry’s Arms numerous time and I now come to a conclusion that I would not going to eat here again.
Love their beer selection but the food item was more a miss 80% of the time.
Just don’t ever order their Yorkshire pudding dipping. It was burnt and bitter outside and not cooked inside. The waitress at first told us that ‘s how it suppose to be?! But after I insisted, she ended up taken it off the bill +0.5 star.
Mon-​Fri half price app which is ok price as I doubt I would have paid $ 7.50 for the basket of onion rings or waffle fries.
I would continue to have a pint of Black Oak or Lakes of Bay or whatever local craft beers on tap as pre or post dinner drink.

I visited King Henry’s as one of the Unilocal CMYE event. I found King Henry spacious, casual, comfortable, laid back. That plus a pint of Yel-​P-​A and a homey sheppard pie ($ 18 combo). Okay, the experience was pretty close to a lazy evening at home, minus the PJ, The sheppard pie was delicious. The mush potato was very soft and fluffy but not overly buttery. The meat pie portion was rich in flavour and thick and loaded with meat. The bean was super good; it didn’t seem to be from a can or is there super high quality canned beans? The pint was, hey it was a Unilocal beer, purrrr-​fect!
Our waitress was cool, fast and friendly.

Ok, my mac and cheese was a little bland, but there was so much I liked about this place that it didn’t even matter.
The Yorkshire Pudding Dippers were amazing. I could’ve had two.
Highly recommend those.
They also had a deal going on when we were there (which our server didn’t tell us about, it was like a pleasant surprise when we got our bill) which was half priced apps.
I wish I could remember what time it ran through.
The old cushions on the benches sank when you sat into them but I didn’t mind.
I like the vibe of this place.
They have a LOT of options to choose from.
My friend got steak in GARLIC BREAD.
My other friend got pizza which was okay.
They have daily deals here as well and the beer was good.
I’ll be back.

This bar is a great place to chill out. I ordered Wednesday ribs special and washed it down with Yel-​PA. My friend ordered the king henry burger & Creemore. Both orders came with fries. Ribs tasted Great. Yel-​PA is awesome! Fries were fresh and tasty, one of the best I ever had! Waitress was very nice and professional. Booths are pretty comfy. I love the Rock music playing in the background. Free WiFi (password is their phone number, its on the menu and on their Unilocal page). I surely recommend this place to anyone in the area.

I am in love with this place. They have amazing curry fries and a good selection of whisky. I’m from Los Angeles but enjoy coming here every time im in town!

Love the KHA. A very underrated place and a hidden gem.
The kitchen turns out some amazing food. Highly recommend the lamb shank, the jacko wings (fried, sauced, and then oven caramelized!), and the chicken curry. OMG the chicken curry. So good. Honestly you cannot go wrong with any of the food here. It is surprisingly good for a pub and a place we always recommend.
This place also has a nice rotating selection of Ontario craft beer as well. Important to a hop-​head like me.
The only thing keeping me from a 5-​star is that the place could use a reno.

This was like a 3-​star pub to me prior to the Unilocal GTA Rock event. Now, I have to add another one star to it.
I had never really paid attention to King Henry’s Arms because I like some places more fancy than this place. My bf likes to come here some of the times and so I tried this place before. I tried their pub food but I did not find the food special to me. It was very possibly because I felt that it was not my place lol.
Yesterday, I tried their sample food — Yorkshire pudding at the Unilocal GTA Rock. They were just amazing and it is actually on the pub menu.
I don’t mind go there again and try more of their food plus drinks:)

I’ve been in that Pub many times and I have felt welcome every time. Great staff, nice atmosphere, nice regulars. It’s what i’de expect from a local bar and much more. The only suggestion I have is updating some of the TVs before the FIFA World Cup begins.

Beautiful atmosphere and lovely waitresses, great food
