Tinker Cobblestone Farmstead
Cobblestone farmhouse built in 1828, now a museum dedicated to farm life in the late 1800s.
A house built in 1830 that was most notably the childhood home of Antoinette Brown Blackwell, the first female ordained minister in the United States.
Rochester Institute of Technology's innovation and creativity festival showcases what happens "when the left brain and right brain collide," featuring hundreds of student projects from every corner of the university. Robotics, music, sign language, virtual reality, ecology, and weird science are just a few of the many subject areas covered; in fact, most of the projects take elements from multiple disciplines and combine them in innovative ways. Plenty of food, hands-on exhibits, and kids' activities make for an unbeatable value for a day out.
This recreational trail, which used to be a railroad track, runs from north to south through Henrietta. It is popular with cyclists, runners, and cross-country skiers. A trail map can be downloaded here.
Biggest location of the city-wide diner chain, including a large game room and outdoor seating.
This flagship location of the very popular Rochester chain includes soups and salads in addition to the usual subs, chips, and cookies.
This fantastic Thai spot features reasonable prices, lightning quick service (seriously, it's like they know what you're going to order before you get there) and food that always tastes uncannily fresh and yummy. The ambiance is not great, with a huge cavernous dining room and terrible, terrible art on the walls, but the food is consistently good and you can always get takeout. Make sure to try the Thai iced tea. No need to bother with reservations. Open for lunch and dinner.
Has live music just about every night and a full bar. It was absolutely slammed during its first few months, but crowds have moderated a bit; still, it's not a bad idea to get there early on Friday and Saturday evenings.
Think "burrito chain" meets "Indian food". Customizable wraps or bowls with your choice of starch, protein, curry sauces, vegetables, and garnishes. Vegan and gluten-free options. Entrees $12-15.
Bar and grill located across from RIT, many beers on tap.
A branch of the popular sports bar and grill. The steaks are quite good. Take out available.
100% non-smoking studio suites. Indoor pool and spa, free Wi-Fi access, complimentary breakfast.
Holidome
A nice hotel with an incredible six-story glass arboretum (the hotel was called the "Holidome" when it was a Holiday Inn). Well worth stopping in just to see the foliage and landscaping inside. Non-smoking only.
Marketplace Outlets
Has the usual chain stores.
An organic and natural-food superstore; incredible selection and very good service.
A huge selection of both macro and micro brews from all over the world, plus home-brewing supplies. Also has a large display filled with good cigars. Word to the wise: the owners are quite stand-offish, especially to first time customers and some of the beers are not that fresh. Watch out for dust!
Henrietta is at the junction of Interstate 90 (the New York State Thruway) and Interstate 390.
