Found the Wet Hen Cafe. It's small but mighty. My go to in a new restaurant is Eggs Benedict. If they offer it and it's good everything else on the menu will be too. Guess what, it was excellent. The hollandaise sauce was wonderful, just a hint of lemon and it was served with home fries that were cooked to perfection. I took one of their pastries back to my office with me for later and oh man. read less

My favorite breakfast spot in town! Never disappoints my family and I have been going there for years now! Keep up the great work guys!

Mary and I for lunch Traveled to REno with a very good friend. Stayed at Harrah's and did a lot of fun things.
Food was good at the WEt Hen and very cheap

Let me tell you for the food, the service and price, were great you cannot go wrong. From the moment we entered the door we were greeted, and felt we were right at home. We ordered with no hassle, and to top it off the food arrive pretty fast. I had the biscuits and gravy and 2 sausage patties and scrabbled eggs. The other orders were a strawberry Crepe and the Hungry Rooster.There are no complaints, the plates were bear when we left, everything was eaten. They give the right amount of food, that does not make you stuff your face. If you have a chance I would say try it, you will be pleasantly surprised. Again this review is based on my personal experience. I am hoping you will have the same. Enjoy. read less

One of my friends chose The Wet Hen Cafe as his family lives near by and has breakfast here frequently. The service was excellent and the staff was super friendly! Four of us met and ordered different items from the menu and everyone agreed that all of the meals were really good. I had the Biscuits and Gravy with sausage patties...Delicious! I will definitely be back! The outdoor seating area looks like a nice spot and will try that on my next visit. read less

Neighborhood fav. We live this place. The staff is always so friendly and nice. The service is quick and the food is always so fresh.

Food was great. Nice portions. Customer service was outstanding. They checked on us several times to be sure we were satisfied. We'll definitely be back!

Really... read moreI did a little research on TripAdvisor & saw that The Wet Hen Cafe was rated #1 in Reno on TA, so I thought I should check it out. Really glad I did. The Wet Hen is an informal, cozy little space that reminded me of part diner/part lunch counter. You have to order at the front counter & then an employee brings your food to your table.

The service was great - people are friendly & thoughtful & FUN... & also, they don't hover, which is always nice in a food establishment. I ordered the ham & cheese omelette - it was decent, a little over cheesy (I should have asked for light cheese; it seems I got a pound on the omelette.)

The space is cozy/small - might be better to do a take-out/to-go for my next trip to the Wet Hen. ALSO there is an outdoor space/pergola that might be nice - esp. since they were just installing sunshades to encircle the pergola/outdoor tables.

I'll definitely be back, & will try a lunch item next time. read less

You order at the counter and they bring the food to the table. Everything is freshly made and baked at the restaurant. Services was friendly and efficient. The restaurant and bathrooms were clean. Our food was very tasty.
My only comment would be the same comment I make of all restaurants that serve breakfast: like to brag about their fresh baking etc. because they don't use additives such as High Fructose Corn Syrup. However, then they serve toast and the only jam is Smuckers where the second ingredient is High Fructose Corn Syrup or pancake syrup with HFCS.
We would highly recommend this restaurant. read less

I love that it is not overly sweet. We each had an omelette which were just the way we like them. My husband loved the biscuits and gravy too. A bonus was the family story about the owner’s father. He was an executive chef and he was the inspiration for the restaurant. Love this place! We are planning a trip back for lunch. read less

Best hollandaise sauce ever. Folks are so friendly and hospitable, just love the delicious food and pleasant atmosphere. Can't wait till we go again.

My husband and I go this restaurant frequently for breakfast/brunch as the food is so good. I have ordered omelets, quiches and soup. I occasionally order a latte. All have been excellent. Other than the specialty coffees, drinks are self serve. We love that the staff will come by and ask how the food is and if there is anything else we need. The local artwork is unique and you can also buy it off the walls. This is a must for anyone who loves excellent food. read less

It was my first visit and by the end of breakfast I knew I would be back the next morning again. No hotel venue was going to replace this excellent dining experience. Everything was delicious.
The Hungry Rooster included perfect eggs with equally crafted bacon and english muffin. Righteous homemade hash browns and a great espresso.
Yes. Go. read less

I went for the Black Forest ham and cheese on wheat, along with a cup of potato & leek soup. Perfect. Don’t forget to have one of their incredible fresh baked cookies - white chocolate with cranberries. So many good things on the menu for breakfast and lunch. Killer service too! Ordered the special, strawberry french toast. Didn't taste bad but I've had better. He reason for the four rating is because they give you a warmed coffee mug. Loved that bit. Coffee was average. Nice place overall. Like the setup. read less
