About Henry'S Coffeehouse
The most prevalent question asked by visitors to Denali Park's newest addition, Henry's Coffeehouse, is "Who's Henry, and why does he have a coffeehouse?" The answer is never what people expect. After all, who names a coffeehouse after a sled dog?
Jon and Karin Nierenberg decided to name the new coffeehouse at EarthSong Lodge after one of their sled dogs. While all mushers will agree, every dog is different and special in some way, Henry definitely stands out as an exceptional example.
Born in 1987, Henry was purchased as a yearling. Checking in at 85 pounds, he fit right in with the medium size sled dogs. Henry had an exceptional career up until his retirement in 1999.
Expeditions took him and his fellow dogs to an amazing variety of places in Alaska and the north country. Henry was on trips in Gates of the Arctic, Northwest Passage, and the Iditarod Trail.
He and his intrepid fellow sled dogs survived an avalanche on the Golden Stairs along the Chilkoot Trail, and navigated through crevasses and ice-falls climbing 16, 000' Mt. Sanford in Wrangells-St Elias National Park. Henry also had extensive exposure to the glaciers on the north side of the Alaska Range in Denali National Park.
The coffeehouse honors a dog unique in the mushing world. Throughout the building at EarthSong Lodge, there are sled dog items and reminders of Henry and his companions.
Sled dog artwork and maps of Henry's travels can be found upstairs in the dining area.
Many of the menu items are named after his family, like the Henry Special (a caramel drizzle latte with vanilla and whipped cream), Uncle Henry's Pesto Pizza, Tigger Breakfast Bagel, and the Pooh Bear (sausage, egg, and cheese on garlic bagel).
Every evening at 8: 00 PM, during the slide presentation, guests can see photos of Henry and his fellows traveling through the park and up on the glaciers. We like to think that if Henry was still around, he would be extremely happy to spend time at the coffeehouse doing one of his favorite things. . . hanging out on the sofa, checking out what's going on, enjoying some scratches behind the ears, and catching some ZZZZ's.

So, I walked into Henry'S Coffeehouse at Mile 4 Stampede Rd, Healy, Alaska 99743 and got myself a latte. Let me tell you, it was like a warm hug for my soul. The place is low-key and down-to-earth, just my kind of spot. The barista was cool and knew their stuff. If you're in the hood, don't miss this gem.

Henry'S Coffeehouse is a coffee lover's paradise. The beans are sourced from around the world, and it shows in the complex flavors of their brews. Yes, it's a bit pricey, but the quality is worth every penny.

I had high hopes for Henry'S Coffeehouse, but it fell short. The coffee tasted bitter, and the service was slow at the Mile 4 Stampede Rd, Healy, Alaska 99743 location. I'm not sure if I'll be returning.

I stopped by Henry'S Coffeehouse for a quick caffeine fix, but the line was long, and the service was lacking in efficiency. It's not the place for a hurried coffee stop.
