One of the most eagerly awaited restaurant openings of the year, The Henry, will officially open on April 2 at the historic Uptown Plaza, located at the northeast corner of Central Avenue and Camelback Road. This marks the second Valley location for Fox Restaurant Concepts’ celebrated “greatest neighborhood restaurant,” following 14 successful years in Arcadia.
Since its debut, The Henry has earned a reputation for its inviting atmosphere, delectable menu, timeless style, and a touch of Gatsby-era charm. The Uptown location aims to capture the same essence, blending the classic Henry experience with the vibrant energy of the Uptown Phoenix neighborhood.
“In the same way our Arcadia restaurant has become woven into the fabric of the community, we envision The Henry Uptown as a gathering place for the neighborhood and beyond. We’re pleased to bring The Henry experience to such an iconic spot in Phoenix,” Founder Sam Fox said. “From early-morning espresso runs and afternoon business lunches to late-night martinis with friends, we want everyone to feel at home any time of day.”
Guests will find familiar favorites from the other location’s menu, including freshly baked pastries, brunch items, and specialty coffee. An exciting addition to the new location is a larger, more expansive bar offering an even wider selection of expertly crafted cocktails and curated wines.
The new location, housed in an all-new construction on a well-known corner of Uptown Plaza, boasts a unique style that sets it apart. From the moment guests approach the rich, green exterior awnings and the centerpiece fireplace on the front patio, the restaurant’s timeless vibe beckons. Inside, the space is designed with café-like coziness, featuring warm leather banquettes, sky-blue tufted chairs, ornate wooden and marble tables, and a spacious private dining room. The bustling open kitchen adds to the lively atmosphere, making it a perfect spot for any dining experience.
To celebrate its grand opening, Fox Restaurant Concepts has partnered with Make-A-Wish, donating 30 percent of opening day sales to support the organization’s mission of granting life-changing wishes to children with critical illnesses.
The Henry Uptown is located at 2 E. Camelback Road, just a short distance from its sister restaurant, Flower Child, in the same plaza. The restaurant will be open Sunday through Thursday from 7 a.m. to 10 p.m. and Friday and Saturday from 7 a.m. to 11 p.m. For more, visit thehenryrestaurant.com.
