One of the best breakfast & brunch places I’ve ever been to. The atmosphere is fun and fresh. For such a popular busy spot, they know how to get the line moving! So don’t be intimidated. This place is very efficient. The food is 10/10. I’ve tried the hearty whole grain bowls, the burrata and the avocado toasts, the breakfast tacos, and the burritos - all amazing. still working my way to trying their sweet section and the mini waffle sampler. There’s something for everyone on the menu. I always appreciate a diverse yet neat menu. Pictured is the amazing burrata toast and breakfast tacos with iced caramel macchiato. Delicious coffee as well. The decorations inside are so fun it’s hard to resist to not snap a selfie!

We stopped by The Hen Ann Arbor for brunch, and everything from start to finish was exceptional. I had the avocado toast, which was flavorful, colorful, and absolutely perfect. The jammy egg added the right richness, and the salad on the side had a dressing with just the right amount of tang to balance everything out. My husband ordered the blueberry French toast , which came out as an impressive stack and were beautifully presented. The flavors were outstanding, perfectly sweet, fresh, and indulgent. Our daughter had the Nutella pancakes and was in pure Nutella heaven. The pancakes were light, fluffy, and generously layered, a true treat for anyone with a sweet tooth. From the presentation to the flavors, The Hen exceeded all expectations. Beautiful food, excellent service, and a cozy

The chocolate chip pancakes and hot coffee were delicious!!! I also loved the bacon, it was deliciously cooked and flavored. My friend got a breakfast sandwich and really liked it. I’d definitely go back here again. The lady who was behind the coffee counter seemed kinda in a bad mood so they lost points for service there due to her being kinda mean for no reason but it didn’t take away from how delicious everything was. Line was long and went quick.

We went on a Friday afternoon so the wait was only around 10 minutes. The line is usually out the door so I avoid this place. The wait time for our food was only 5ish minutes. Very impressive. It was very loud and music was blaring. I could hear my friend but it was definitely a bit overstimulating. The food was delicious for the time it takes to serve. To get water you have to go to the bar and get water from the tap. I forgot to ask for some while at the register because I didn’t realize I needed to ask. The price of the food is decent.

Delicious brunch and worth a visit if you’re in the area. Service is odd- order at the counter, drinks are pick up only/self-serve water, you are seated after ordering, and there is table-to-table bussing of plates and utensils. Like a cafeteria with assigned seating. Not bad, just a surprise. There are so many cameras that we wondered if there were previous/ongoing issues with safety there. The waffle flight was a delight! The grain bowl needs more sauce and is very fresh
