Henry's Homemade Ice Cream

We drove by on a random day while talking about ice cream and made a U-turn to get there. We were helped by a lovely and pleasant lady behind the counter who gave us some context to Henry's! It was my first time seeing a superman flavor in over a decade so I had to have some. Their scoops are outright HUGE! We all ordered a kiddie cone and it felt as big as a braum's regular.Their front flavors switch when theyre out and they have classic flavors hidden behind the counter! (read the signs) They also have hotdogs and such as well. will definitely be coming back to support this local small business!!

After our Family Father's Day lunch. We went to chill at this Ice Cream Shop. I ordered Banana Split with vanilla, chocolate and strawberry, everything on it. It's delicious. Friendly Serving Staff. Clean and nicely decorated ice cream shop. Lots of parking, too.

Good ice cream, reasonable price and the best part is it's so clean on the inside. Also they have a really good hot dog deal, I don't know if it was a special at the time but when I was there it was two hot dogs, chips and a drink for $4.29. I think my only complaint would be that I had the waffle cone crunch on my visit and it was all kinds of rainbow colors which in my opinion was completely unnecessary, there's no reason to add food dyes to ice cream. I get that it makes it more fun for the kids but Unnecessary nonetheless. *Poor *Decent *Good *Great *Best *JLFoodie CertifiedFood. GoodService. BestCleanliness. BestConsistency. Good nothingVariety.

I love Henry's! This is a must-stop local ice cream shop in Plano that's been in the business for 30+ years. They have so many specialty flavors such as mango, lime sherbet, and corn. The prices are great too especially with how much ice cream they give you. They have an old-style classic design, with wooden chairs and big round dining tables. It reminds me of furniture from thrift stores which brings back memories from my childhood.I love the mango flavor. It's creamy, light, and sweet. Other places have mango flavor as a sherbet, but this store actually sells creamy mango ice cream which is exactly what I'm looking for. The workers are friendly and they'll let you sample the flavors as you like. I usually ask for 1-2 samples since the store is always packed when we go, and I don't want to hold up the line. Their butter pecan is so delicious! They don't limit the amount of pecans because every lick has a piece of pecan! Each scoop is huge, and it'll definitely fill you up-- even their kids' size. Their cones are very affordable as well. The waffle cones are $1.31, and the cake cones are $1.10. Most places sell them for $3+. The only thing they can improve on is putting napkins on every table. There are napkin holders, but never any napkins. We always have to go back into the line just to grab some. There are so many flavors here so everyone will definitely find something they like!

Although we hadn't been here in several years - it has always been our go-to for an ice cold sweet treat on a hot Texan summer day (and every season in between). This past visit, yesterday 8/6/2024, I glanced over the available flavors and decided on one scoop of Guava and one scoop of Vanilla Almond in a regular size cup. Mom got a scoop of Coconut and Vanilla Almond (also in a regular size cup). The ice cream itself lent a rich, creamy flavor with a smooth texture and mouthfeel. It also did not melt right away, so it is clear that high-quality ingredients are utilized in its preparation. Upon entering, we were assisted by Jamie (and a gentleman whose name I did not get). Seating is limited, and I would imagine it gets crowded at peak times, so try to time your arrival accordingly. We custom ordered 1/2 gallon of Guava and 1/2 gallon of Lavender Ice Cream before leaving. The first time I tasted the Lavender Ice Cream was at Fireside Pies in 2015 (at Shops at Legacy in Plano which closed its location and is no longer in business) and have been addicted ever since.

Been a fan of Henry Gentry and his exceptional homemade ice cream since he moved here to Plano Tx in 1992.I agree with every positive review regarding his products and old fashioned store.Today I want to feature his Hot Dog special.With Portillo's and others opening with emphasis on Chicago Dogs you must try Henry's American Dog.It's reminiscent of 1950's old fashion style. He uses Hirsch's specialty meat.No tough casing to chew through!Two big Hot Dogs ,chips, and a drink $3.99You must stop in and try , plus top it off with a scoop of ice cream the size of Texas .

So very disappointing. We've been coming here for almost 20 years, tonight cones were handed to us half melted half gallon in the freezer was soft before we got to thecar.

I hadn't been here in a while. Things have changed. The ice cream was so soft it was almost liquid. There was no depth of flavor. Very little ingredients. I don't go back.

The summer of '22 was a hot one so I ended up checking out a bunch of local ice creameries to cool myself down. I am definitely down to support a local business, so that's why I gave Henry's a shot. Compared to the places I had been to recently, the flavor selection was a little lackluster. This may also be an unfavorable opinion, but I did not like the wooden spoon they served the ice cream with. I prefer a smooth plastic vehicle to deliver the cool dessert to my mouth, rather than that dry wood product. The seating inside is large and good for groups. Plenty of parking in the lot outside. Random side note: I was kind of put off by the large signage about Chase bank in the storefront. It seems very passive aggressive.

Based on the positive reviews, we decided to give this place a try. Upon arriving, I was immediately thrown off by the sign on the window exposing the owners strong distaste for Chase Bank, supposedly caused by a previous financial incident. I will add the photo for others to read for themselves. Neither of us found this appropriate or professional to be plastered on your stores window. We went inside and there was one girl who greeted us who was very friendly and we tried to disregard the sign out front....until we read the menu and they created a flavor called "Dump Chase"...these people really hate Chase Bank...The first girl who greeted us went to help someone else as we were still deciding what flavor to try. The other employees working at the time were not friendly at all and rather rude. I didn't get any names but the friendly one was a brunette with a nose ring and some tattoos. Shout out to her for being a light in an otherwise not so bright environment. I ordered a spumoni ice cream on a waffle cone and the ice cream itself wasn't bad but as soon as it melted even a little it was pouring out a small hole at the bottom of my cone, which wasn't a fun experience. Overall, not the best first impression aside from that one nice employee and we won't be returning. I would also like to advise the owner to take down that sign about Chase as it left a terrible taste in our mouths and I'm sure will/has for many others. Regardless of what situation occurred or your opinion of another person and/or company, publicly bashing them and then vindictively naming a flavor negatively after them is petty and does not look good for your business.
