I was introduced to this place by my coworker and when I tell you they have the best breakfast in town. I usually order the spicy sausage breakfast with scrambled eggs, grits and toast. I would definitely recommend here if you are in the area read more

Tired of the same-o same-o for breakfast, we checked out this neighborhood cafe. The owner is a very nice lady who took our order. We both had the two egg breakfast - I ordered the linguisa, DH had bacon. We both ordered our eggs over easy. She asked if he wanted his bacon crispy and he replied "not too crisp". She also asked if we wanted our potatoes crispy, and we said ok. We did not wait too long before our food came. My linguisa was well cooked, not too greasy. The bacon was a little too crisp for hubby's taste - they seemed to shatter with every bite. Our order for eggs over easy resulted in solid yolks, and the potatoes were seriously crunchy - I could hear DH chewing across the table. I guess that's what "crisp" means. I don't know, maybe we just ordered the "wrong" thing for breakfast. It wasn't until after we finished eating that we noticed a sign on the wall stating there was an additional 1$ being applied to the prices on the menu. Sure enough, when our tab came, the prices reflected an additional 1$ per order. For my taste, their food doesn't do it for me. But if you like crispy, crunchy and well done sausage and eggs, you may well love this place. read more

Solid small hole in the wall. I ordered Kylie's scramble w rice. The scramble was great. Rice was over watered to my liking. I skipped the toast since I did not need the extra carbs. Would come back again if in the area and try a different scramble. Thanks. read more

I wanted to take my girls to breakfast today I remembered I saw this spot while getting gas across the street one day. Been meaning to try it so today was the day. The waitress was really nice it definitely felt homey the people that were there seem to go often I like that feeling. The food was perfect. The pancakes were delish! We will definitely be coming back. read more

2 years later and the service is significantly better! I had a veg omlette with hashbrowns and sourdough bread with coffee. Everything was fresh and promptly served. Slightly cheaper than similar places in the area. read more

Cafe McBryde - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Richmond, California

Good services and delicious food, I really recommend a cozy place but they make you feel happy.

Stopped by for an early morning breakfast. Not many places open this early so we gave it a try for the first time. So glad we found it. Small homey place with great service with friendly wait staff. The breakfasts were outstanding. (How can it not be when they have rice on the menu for breakfast?) My Joe's Special was very tasty unlike others I've eaten We found a new place for our pre-golf meals. Will be back! read more

I've been coming here for years and I always get the same thing. The one and only MycBryde Omelette will make your morning that much better. I seriously trust this place to always deliver and they've never failed. I trust them more than I do my job lol. Customer service is incredible, they always have regular Richmond residents in there and you can hear the connection they've made with anyone who walks in. I'm proud to be a Richmond resident and I will always support Cafe MycBryde. read more

A much needed, local to us, neighborhood quick service (not fast food) restaurant with a great vibe and personal touch. Family owned and run. From fancy creations to basic breakfasts, lunches and treats, you can't make a bad choice. Food is fresh, well prepared and brought to your table with a smile. (NOT open for dining in at the moment of course.) Call, place an order and pick up a delicious moderately priced meal within 15-20 min. Help Cafe McBryde survive the year. They'll soon be open 100%, but don't wait! Treat yo' self today! read more

This place is wonderful! It instantly rose to the top of my 'favorite breakfast places' list, and it has stayed at the top ever since. I sit at an outside table next to the roses and feel like I'm on vacation! Everything on the menu looks great; I'm in a happy rut with scrambled eggs with cheddar cheese plus french toast plus a side of crispy sausage. Great coffee, too! read more

Great food & awesome service! Also, not sure what coffee they brew here but it's also super good and fresh. This place is a Richmond staple as far as breakfast goes. read more

My husband loves to eat at out-of-the-way places. This place was a great find. The food was delicious. Our waitress felt like a family member. My breakfast looked so good I couldn't wait to dig in, I even forgot to take a picture of my food. read more

Soooooo good. I had the chorizo egg white scrambled w hashbrowns. Wanted seasonal fruit but hashbrowns is something I must get lol service is great no complaints read more

Our neighborhood spot. We get brunch here a few times a month. Great diner style fare, always fresh and cooked well. We particularly love the scrambles and omelettes. However, it'll get five stars from us when they switch from using single use plastics, like jelly servings, etc. read more

Excellent service, excellent food, a must in our local neighborhood. Never disappointed, love this place.

Never mind. We want you to be successful. My comments were to the owner, meant as constructive criticism. As a vegetable farmer of 25 plus years, and a provider of fresh, organic produce to many of the finest restaurants in San Francisco, I have always told the Chefs I deal with - "Your food can only be as good as the ingredients you use". I hope I got your attention and you think about my point, and not my name. Again, Good Luck, Dutch Uncle Dik read more

Always try find some local gems when traveling, and this small Cafe did not disappoint! Food arrived promptly, server checked on us multiple time. My husband had the chicken fried steak, not overly breaded and not hard as a rock. So tender in his words... you can cut it with a look. I tried the corned beef hash scramble with veggies. Excellent. Not too salty as some corned beef hash can be. Great job read more

I've lived in the neighborhood for 27 years . This this is one of those local spots that I just never made the time to stop at. This past weekend my BF and I decided it was finally time. I had heard so many rave reviews, I really had high hopes. I'm not trying to sound overly dramatic but what a major disappointment! We arrived at about 12:30 on Sunday afternoon. With the exception of one, EVERY TABLE was covered in dirty dishes. The hostess half-heartedly waved us to the one clean table. No less than 4 employees were lazily hanging around making NO ATTEMPT to bus the tables. Only when two more customers arrived was a table cleared. We watched as these young women walked by these filthy tables again and again and again empty-handed, without clearing a plate. Only when another woman came out from the kitchen to help did they make any attempt to clean up. Although the food was fine, trying to eat while looking at all these partially eaten meals was less than appetizing. I can easily go another 27 years without returning. read more

See all

Good food nice people and lots of cops. So I have passed by this place 1000 times and recently started hearing about it so since I was in the neighborhood and where I wanted to go didn't open until 11 and my stomach was growling I stopped at cafe mcbryde. When I walked in I seen a table of SPD and another table with RPd so I almost turned around but I was too hungry and had no reason to be afraid of the police. The services was quick and food was good and cheap. I wish they serve Mimosas but then again nevermind no I don't not with the cops watching lol. Naw they was busy eating read more

Yummy place, went here this morning for pick up because during these times still need to support local businesses. I will be back. Enjoyed are meals. It hit the spot. read more

New management, very unsanitary, asked dir my money back the owner proceeded to curse at me, the staff continued to touch walls, other apparatus without washing hands nor use if gloves... read more

Absolutely love this place! An ideal early Sat. morning routine. Great cust. serv., food is great, great atmosphere. 5+ Stars!

Richmond is one of the most diverse cities in the country, but you might now know it from driving down one of its main thoroughfares. San Pablo Avenue in Richmond is, like so many streets in the country, dotted with strip malls, gas stations, and nail salons. Hidden about three doors east of San Pablo Avenue, on McBryde, sits a true hidden gem, Cafe McBryde. It's a family restaurant, in that the owner treats everyone like family (and her wonderful daughters work there part-time). The food is always fresh (not frozen) and delicious. Denise, the owner, adds new items regularly. I love the veggie omelettes and the turkey burgers. She makes her own turkeys, year around. None of that processed turkey. You have to try the spicy turkey omelette. The decor is clean and charming, but not pretentious. I have been a little hesitant to post this review because Cafe McBryde is small. We selfishly want to keep it to ourselves, but after reading a review that doesn't even seem like it's from the restaurant we frequent, I had to post this. read more

I love your cafe! My mother and I attended the Coffee with the Cop event and we had a wonderful time. The food was delicious, fresh, and cooked to perfection! The service was great even with the crowd....dont get discouraged you all are doing a great job! read more

I LOVE this place. I've only known about this place about 3 weeks although it's been around 29 year . I ordered from there 5 days in a row trying new plates. Never had a bad dish. Amazing French toast! It's small inside but cozy. Best place around for breakfast that I know of. read more

When I entered I was not greeted for a while and when we finally sat down we did not get menus for quite some time either. I had to catch the waitress and say ok we are ready to order as she didn't come back to us for a while to take our order. The food took a long time to come out and would have appreciated a thanks for waiting or a would your child like to color while waiting. The food was ok, average. read more

Came here for breakfast! And wow I am in love with the vegan options that they offer. I was able to get a burrito with hash brown inside!!! Sooo bomb. Went back after the next day. The staff is really kind!! The vibes are calming and makes you feel comfortable. Really good spot that I didn't know about. Yum! read more

I have been meaning to come eat here for a while and was tempted again by the big family breakfast sign. Today we came and ate and it was great. We will come again- I had the Luis omelette with homefries and shared some waffles and pancakes everything was great read more

So good! I had the California omelet I think, it had bacon, tomato and avocado. Wow, so yummy! My husband had bacon and eggs and he absolutely loved the bacon! Service was very friendly. Cute little place. Thanks for the great breakfast. read more

This place has good breakfast. I like the staff and I like the coffee. There is a gas station across the street, so that's convenient. It's a great little place. read more

Great fluffy French toast. Which my all time favorite and great customer service, overall good breakfast experience for me and my younger brother. read more

Good for a quick breakfast. Food wasn't amazing, but it was good. Server was very nice and attentive. Definitely better than what I expected for being a little hole in the wall place in Richmond. read more

This place had really great food. The flavor in the food is amazing. I believe it is family owned. The service was really nice and fast. Prices are beautiful. This is a great place to go. I'll definitely be back. read more

Want good grub at very reasonable prices? Do you like small, kinda cool local spots for breakfast and lunch? Do you enjoy a warm, welcoming atmosphere? This is your spot. Fun and quirky and very tasty! read more

I am super into this place. I kinda hinted to my two small daughters that we would get pancakes for dinner, and they immediately jumped to the conclusion that we were going to IHOP, which -- I could see how they got that, but oh god, how my soul wilted at the idea of going to IHOP. I mean it's fun and all but just nerrrrrr. Anywho, so I remembered my husband had recommended this place, since it's "breakfast all day!" and he can imagine no greater feat for a restaurant to accomplish. Well. So we walk in and my 3 year old realizes this is NOT IHOP and pitches a fit. Ohhhh noooo I am THAT MOM. I tell her "oh honey this is better than IHOP! it's owned by real people!" and she will have none of it so I deposit her at an outdoor table where I can keep an eye on her and hope for the best. First of all, the owner and his wife were SO sweet. They acted like the "better than IHOP" line was the best thing they'd heard all day, and they took turns going outside to peer at my daughter and encourage her to come inside. Once she finally did, they were so sweet and (at my request) put a smiley face on her pancake with whipped cream, and watched like she was their own grandchild as she devoured it. Props to the other customers, too, who were all really sweet about it and chuckled rather than glaring at me. I love you, other customers! Anyway so then I glance up at the wall and WHAT to my wondering eyes should appear but oh dear god a bowl of bebimbap. I was like "You make bebimbap?" The guy was like "of course!" I was like "In the hot stone bowl?" and he was like "If that's how you want it!" and I was like BRING ME THAT RIGHT NOW FOR TO PUT IN MY FACE! and he was like ok! and in very short order I was eating some PERFECT bebimbap, the meat marinated to a tender sweetness, the egg raw until I stirred it into the steaming rice while my daughters looked on in awe-mazement. I was all "I am become BREAKFAST EATER" and I ate the shit out of that bebimbap. Stupid me, I had been hauling my butt all the way over to Solano for my korean rice bowl fix. No more. This was bigger, better, more easygoing, and I love the company. Meet me there any old time! read more

*Relax and Eat here* This is my place to relax, read my weekend newspaper, and of course eat a delicious breakfast in a small, quiet, comfortable, and friendly hole in the wall joint Cafe. Having this cafe across the street from my place is such a convenience it makes me want to eat there every weekend. I ordered 2 eggs with hash browns, thick slice of ham with wheat toast and a large glass of orange juice. I sat by the window, looked at the 10/11am drivers on a Saturday morning getting gas at the ARCO gas station across the street on the corner; and casually read my West County Times newspaper - Saturday edition lol. Yup. This place has an old school mom and pop cafe/diner feel to it and i wouldn't doubt that it's family ran and/or owned. The waitress was really nice and made me feel like i had been coming there for years when I've only been there only 3 times in my life. Now it's my understanding that this place has been there for years but I've only known about the cafes' existence for about 4 years now. I give this place 4 out of 5 stars only because they only take cash. They haven't updated there system yet to take ATM/Debit cards yet, and I'm sure they don't plan on it anytime soon unfortunately. So come with cash when you go to eat there! See you at Cafe McBryde. Word! read more

McBryde is a favorite for breakfast when I 'm really hungry. Eggs, bacon, sausage, hash browns are all good, really love the french toast. Friendly service and very reasonable prices for generous portions. read more

I decided to travel by car from Seattle to Los Angeles for the holidays. Sounds crazy, but after all the travel I've been doing recently, I couldn't imagine kenneling my poor dog YET AGAIN--he had been in the kennel longer in the last month than he had been at home with me. So... road trip with the puppy! Fortunately for me, my brother resides in SF, giving me a pretty convenient mid-point to spend the night. I mean, I suppose I could've driven straight through, but I'd wind up losing a day recovering. Blah. Might as well take it easy, and get some rest in the middle. On my way back North, I again stayed in SF. I left in the morning, got myself across the bridge and past what I figured would be the worst points of traffic, and dangerously searched for breakfast spots whilst speeding on the highway. This place popped up, I mapped it, and exited. Gassed up nearby, pulled in, gave Carson some treats, and headed in. It's not the prettiest place, or the fanciest, and definitely not the largest, but it IS warm and welcoming. The gal good morning'd me, and had a pot of coffee in hand at my table as I was sitting down. She had no problem filling up my travel mug, and dropped a menu off as she moved off to take care of other folks. I found myself a veggie omelet on the menu, retrieved an Oakland newspaper, and faster than I could read an article had my breakfast in front of me. The fruit dish seemed fresh, the omelet hit the spot, and I discovered that things in Oakland seem just as dark and dismal as things in Los Angeles, Seattle, and just about everywhere else I've been. Which isn't surprising, considering bad news sells. I paid up, and the waitress still topped off my travel mug for the road. That rocked! Until about 50 miles later when all that coffee made me have to pee. When Nature calls, she dials 9-1-1! read more
