Henry's Cafe - Middlesbrough

My daughter is a student at askham Bryan college within Stewart's park ground's and the students go to Henry's for lunch. She ordered ham and cheese toastie with chips for her lunch, when she got her food the ham and cheese toastie was hot and like it was meant to be but the chips were undercooked, cold and disgusting.

I often visit this restaurant after a Parkrun on Saturday mornings. The positives include a beautiful setting, a variety of food and drinks, and ample indoor and outdoor seating. However, the negatives outweigh the positives. The coffee is usually terrible and inconsistent, sometimes served scalding hot which burned my partner's tongue. There are often long queues during busy times and the food is mediocre at best.

Went there in the morning 13th March 23 we ordered cheese burgers and chips , the cheese burgers were absolutely horrible they had being left on a hot plate because they were hard and tasteless , to be honest we should of complained but we were in a hurry with a long journey ahead , but I advise everyone to steer clear it wasn't cheap and was rubbish.

I'm struggling to find words for how incredibly bland and dismal the coffee is here. Imagine dishwater, after you've rinsed out an empty jar of instant coffee. That's what this coffee was like; coffee-rinsed dishwater, with too much milk added. I at least like to decide how much milk I add to my dishwater. On the plus side, it's a nice setting with clean facilities and friendly staff, so a point for that.

We visit the park every Sunday with friends, we always end up here. The coffee is good, the food is quick and simple (touch pricey). The staff are absolutely fantastic, so friendly and always up for a quick chat when its quiet. There is plenty of seating out the front, the back and inside. They have no issues with us pushing some tables together so we can all chat.
