Henley sits inside the Kimpton Aertson Hotel in Midtown, built around the idea of a modern American brasserie — local ingredients, French technique, a comfortable dining room meant for lingering over cocktails and dinner. The bar runs its own seasonal cocktail program alongside wine and locally brewed beer, and a patio extends the evening outside when the weather cooperates.
Regulars return for the sweet potato rolls, Southern benedict, and pork belly, with chicken and dumplings, trout, and biscuits with honey butter also drawing consistent mentions from diners.
Behind a hidden door, Henley runs a separate experience called Rabbit Hole: Chef Kristin's tasting menu served at a Chef's Table, a different register from the brasserie dining room out front.
