New place as of October/November 2012. It's absolutely fantastic to have a quality beer place at the Shops at Legacy. Of course, there are the pubs (Ringo's, Gman), but they're not restaurants and not suitable for family meals. Henry's is a Northwest import and offers semi-upscale Americana with 100 taps and lots of sports on TV. They did a really good job with the diversity of selection--too many places offer 100 taps of Bud, Miller, Coors, Shiner, Heineken, Stella, Guiness, etc... Henry's has their beer menu broken into ambers, pale ales, Belgians, stouts, strong beers, IPA's, Pale Ales, etc... with a series of about 7 rotating seasonals. There are a handful of locals (Deep Ellum, Peticolas and Lakewood) mixed in with big nationals (New Belgium, Sierra Nevada, Red Hook, Bridgeport, etc...) and a few internationals (Wells, Fullers...).

The food is well done, if a bit pricey ($10-12 for a pizza, burger or sandwich, $15+ for steak, and other entrees.). The staff is friendly, perhaps overly-so, though not terribly beer-knowledgeable. Still, this is an excellent choice: wonderful beer selection, very well done food and family-friendly enough ambiance. The bar area is mostly all adults watching games, but there were a smattering of families in the dining room. We've been twice and will definitely go back.

Went there with a few colleagues from work when I came from out of town. Pleasantly surprised. Nice big bar area with many tappers. Nice big selection of brews except not too many stouts and no BA stouts. But part of the bar is ice which you can keep your glass on to keep your beer cold. Pretty cool. Staff is very friendly. They are always willing to give samples of brews before you buy a whole glass. Overall really nice place that I will definitely try again when back in town.
