The Hen House Of Wheaton

Let me explain why it’s 1 star shy of 5. It started off strong with two hot apple cider cocktails, and I couldn’t taste the alcohol in them ;). Those might have been the best part; never take them off the menu in my opinion. I ordered the seasonal Cuban sandwich, and it was delicious. I particularly enjoyed the elements of the ‘mojo pickle,’ which tasted like a dill pickle, and the pickled onions, which were also super tasty. I paired it with sweet potato fries and a side of sour cream, and it was really good. I love it when my food comes out hot! My one friend opted for the yam yams on the healthier side, and she really enjoyed them. My other friend got the quinoa bowl. Since there is no mention of the quinoa bowl, let me tell you about it based on everything she described while eating it because it was a journey. It came out super beautiful with blackberries and flowers on top—very aesthetic. However, her facial expressions as she ate it were pretty telling of how the food tasted. She tried to describe some kind of garlic taste in the bowl. Initially, she thought the quinoa had garlic, but then it seemed like it could’ve been in the yogurt. The garlic taste was subtle enough to seem like it was meant for another dish, not this one. At some point, she was looking for where the honey was layered in this bowl, but she couldn’t taste it. My yam yams friend had a side of jelly that she offered to my friend eating this bowl of quinoa to try to enhance the flavor. As it turns out, the flavor could not be enhanced even with the jelly. I think the bowl was just a disaster, unfortunately. This poor girl tried to be healthy by ordering the quinoa bowl, but I think it was the first time that anyone has ever ordered this bowl from this menu because it did not deliver. The service was great though!!

My husband and I LOVE the power parfait! We can’t find anything quite like it anywhere else. I haven’t even tried anything else on the menu. Just switch out the walnuts for peacans. Always delicious and beautiful presentation. But, we HATE the loud country music. You can’t even have a conversation! I have head other people asking to be seated farther from the speakers as well. Our breakfast date hack? Order ahead for pick up and take it to a local park so you can have the delicious parfait without the loud music.

Ate here for the first time today and will definitely be back! Between the coffee bar and our server, Jenna, this place doesn't compare to other spots! The eggs were perfectly scrambled and the pancakes tasted like they came from heaven! Our waitress was sweet and attentive and seemed so genuine. I don't know why this was just now our first time, but it won't be our last.

Large menu with many options for all tastes and preferences. Their unique additions to favorites stand out as well as their plating and presentation. They even have a coffee bar with specialty drinks. There is outside dining along the sidewalk or in a beautiful courtyard. They have cute decor with window seats and a fireplace. I highly recommend you check this place out, but if you have a medium or large group speak with them ahead of time about availability because it is a popular place.
