I heard about the Hen House through my neighborhood group. It had opened up earlier this year and is affiliated with one of my favorite brunch places, Toast. Both good reasons to visit!I came here on a day off from work since their hours are from 8am to 2pm on most days. There are definitely coffee shop vibes when you walk in. The space is a decent size with booths on one side and tables in the middle and on the other side. You order in the front where there is display of all of their gluten free bakery goods and a menu. The menu isn't exclusively GF but there is the option to make your order GF. I chose to try the Breakfast Burrito with a Cauliflower soup as the side and a coffee. Once you place the order you take a number and find yourself a seat where they will bring the food to you. My Breakfast Burrito was very good! All of my favorite things in it: eggs, potatoes, and chorizo. Chorizo always has a great flavor! The avocado pieces were a bit big as was the cheese slice which I ended up picking some out. I really should have just asked to have no cheese since I'm not a big cheese lover.Drinks: The coffee wasn't my favorite. I usually like my coffee black, but ended up adding some cream.Service: Very good- everyone was very friendly!Parking: Street Parking.

Overall, everything about Hen House was great. The person taking our order / serving us was friendly and helpful. All 3 of us enjoyed our dishes, including the person who has very extensive food allergies. The place itself was modest, but cute. They have a pastry special where you can do 6 pastries for $16, which given the quality, was great. Would definitely consider again. Since we went back in June 2024, we learned that they make Tartine king cakes during Mardi Gras which are currently my favorite and it's wonderful to know that we have such a delicious king cake option on the West Bank.

Cute and delicious with great service! Also highly recommend getting cookies to go. Especially the oatmeal cream pie. I brought one home the other day and I've been asked twice now to stop and get another one! ha

The Hen House has so much potential but fell short for us. The wait was long and the portions were small and over priced for what you get. They were not prepared for a busy morning rush. The silverware sits on a cup on the table and some of it was dirty.

Really good breakfast spot in quiet part of town. The service is super friendly. Try the grits. Very creamy. They serve what looks like a homemade jam. It was the best. I plan to go back again and again.

Searching for a gluten free option for one of the members of our group and found Hen House. Wow. If you are gluten sensitive this is the place for you, but if you don't have gluten issues this is still the spot. Friendly, helpful staff and delicious foods. Had shrimp and grits, blt sandwich, gluten free breakfast sandwich, gluten free breakfast burrito, cheese scone, and gluten free coffee cake. Every one was a winner. Played great music and not too loudly, too. Highly recommend.

A gluten free bakery & café in Gretna? A literal god-send. Us celiac folk spend so much of our day hungry and foraging, trying to eke together a decent meal from tiny, flavorless, overpriced "bread". We scour a restaurant's menu beforehand for GF items forever wary that we'll get dosed by a bit of the old wheat devil dust.And then, there's Hen House. As an individual who has celiac and also loves to eat, I fully appreciate the love & care that goes into making their broad array of baked goods. As a chef, I further appreciate the skill that goes into making these things... GF baking is a whole different ballgame. And Hen House knocks it out of the park, every time that I've been.My partner tells me their normal bread is also extremely good.I've never left a Yelp review before. As a food service professional, it feels odd to do so. However, this place deserves glowing praise. Ecstatic praise. Hallelujahs and acclamation. 10 stars.
