We love getting to know our community, clients, and food truck fans. Every day we get questions from people wanting to know more about Henn House Barbeque! Here is a list of Frequently Asked Questions to hopefully get you started and see why Henn House Barbeque is different.
1. Where is Henn House Barbeque located?
We are based in Altona, Illinois. Although we do not have a restaurant, we do host events at our Altona locations. Events such as wedding tastings, Cooking with Phil, and our take-home-meals happen right from our Henn House space in Altona!
2. Are you going to open a restaurant?
Although we know to "never say never"...opening a restaurant is not the plan. We love being able to have personal communication is each one of our catering clients and don't want a restaurant interfering with that. The Food Truck is a great middle ground for us!
3. Where is the food truck set up?
The Henn House Barbeque food truck wanders! This Summer/Fall you'll find us in Galesburg, Oneida, Peoria, and more! The best way to keep up with locations is through our VIP email list, Facebook, and Instagram.

We have an awesome staff! Henn House Barbeque started with me (Phil) and a smoker. As we grow we have added a great team to help serve our clients best.
6. Is there a minimum number of guests for catered events?
There is no minimum for catering! Planning a family gathering for 12 or a wedding for 1,000 we can accommodate you!
