We decided to stop in at Old Richmond Grill while running errands nearby. We had read reviews and knew it was a smaller place with only five booths and ten seats at the counter. There does not appear to be any real defined parking but there sure were a lot of cars parked around the small building. We picked a spot near the back. When you walk inside, the booths are along the front wall to the right and the counter seats are to the left with the kitchen area behind that. Lucky for us when we arrived a booth had just became available. There were several people picking up to go orders during our visit. We were quickly provided menus and our drink orders were taken. The menu consists of both breakfast and lunch items. My wife chose the supreme omelet, potatoes and a biscuit while I chose the double bacon cheeseburger with tots. We also couldn't resist ordering hot chips with ranch. Old Richmond Grill is the epitome of a down home greasy spoon diner. You could tell this is a gathering place for regulars by the interactions between the staff and the other customers. The walls had writing all over them in random colors from what we believe are people that have visited. Nothing fancy here, in fact we read the bathroom is located on the exterior of the building but the sink is inside. We can attest to seeing a sink on the wall in the dining area so we assume it's accurate. Our food arrived quickly and looked good. The hot chips hit the spot but my wife felt her omelet, potatoes and biscuit lacked flavor. I really enjoyed my burger and tots. read more

The food is always plentiful and homey. The prices are great. The staff is friendly and the service is fast.

Came here to try the Cheeseburger Club, one of my favorite sandwiches, and while the club was OK, the overall experience was not pleasant. This is a very small diner with about 4 booths and stools at the counter. The placed filled quickly, several booths with small, noisy kids - it got loud and hectic in a hurry. People waiting for a space stood all over including right beside my booth. I got a take out box, packed-up my mostly uneaten sandwich, and headed for the hills, better to fight another day. read more

Old Richmond Grill - Cheeseburger Club - just ok - Southern Near Me - Pfafftown, North Carolina

Very small diner feel. There's 5 booths total inside with some bar seating available . (Very similar to Waffle House). The biggest downside to their small size is that the restroom is outside and it has no sink to wash your hands. The sink to wash your hands is in the dining room. Our server was really sweet and made some great recommendations. I ended up trying the fried catfish platter based on her recommendation and it was pretty amazing. It was fried to perfection and was dried with their homemade tarter sauce. The mac and cheese tasted like box Mac and cheese but it was still good. My husband had the ribeye sandwich and he said it was loaded with flavor. We ordered a side of chicken pot pie and the portion size was pretty big. I can only imagine with the entree size is like! read more

A guy pulled up in a tractor and came in for breakfast. This is a small country breakfast/lunch joint. The waitress was very friendly. The service was fast. Felt like we were at grandma's house for breakfast. The bacon might be the best I've ever had. The hash browns are home fries style and were fantastic. I love going to diners and this will definitely be a top spot moving forward. read more

I stopped here for lunch today as I was wanting to try something new and had read good reviews about this place. Old Richmond Grill is one of those old school, home in the wall places that serves up neighborhood food at a decent price. The place is located in Pffaftown right beside Bethania, NC. It's located kind of in isolation right at he corner of a stoplight so you cannot miss it. Parking is pretty much of you can find a spot, or you make your own spot since there are not actual spots. I noticed the place seems to be where a lot of locals come, you know the place where the staff watches people's kids grow up before their very eyes. The place is relatively small as their are about five booths and the rest can sit individually at the counter like diner style. I would recommend getting there early or between the breakfast, lunch, and dinner rush. It should be noted that they are also open longer on the weekends and close around 2:30pm during the weekdays, Monday through Wednesday I believe. The waitress was nice and got my drink pretty fast. I had sweet tea, which I had no complaints about at all as it wasn't ridiculously sweet like some places. One of the reasons like like this place is that they serve breakfast anytime, or until they run out of stuff to serve breakfast for the day. That's always a plus in my book! I opted for the Super Omelet which had virtually all the meats, veggies and cheese thrown into 3 eggs. It has sausage, ham, bacon, onions, green peppers, mushrooms, and American cheese. It was really delicious, hot and it was so big that the omelet was running off the plate! It came with hashbrowns and toast or a biscuit. I got the biscuit which may have been a little over cooked but it was fine, it came with two of them by the way. I thought the ham could have been cut into smaller pieces, but I was so hungry it didn't even matter. All this was for less than ten bucks, $9.29 I believe. I would come here again for sure. It's got that down to earth feeling to it, and it's really reasonable. Its places like this is why I am thankful to have Yelp! read more

I had been meaning to try this place out ever since I read about it in Our State. I finally got the opportunity today. This is a small little hole in the wall right on the outskirts of Winston-Salem in the small town of Pfafftown. It's the kind of place where everyone knows everyone else. I always find this as a good sign, because if the locals go there every day then it is usually the type of place that you want to be. It is a great example of a locally owned small Southern diner. There is limited seating, but right as my girlfriend and I walked in the door someone offered up their booth to us and went to sit with a friend. Generosity and friendliness were themes for the rest of our meal. Everyone was very welcoming. They have things that are on the menu every day, but they also have daily specials that they write up on the board. They also don't have a specific time when they stop serving breakfast. It is merely determined on when they run out of ingredients. I had the Super Omelet, which they basically throw everything that they have into (3 eggs, ham, sausage, bacon, onion, green pepper, mushrooms, and cheese). It was delicious and I was happy to get a breakfast item at 2:00 in the afternoon. On the side I got a made from scratch biscuit (above par but not great) and some really tasty home fries. Also, it is always worth noting when a place has good sweet tea, which is the case here. This is definitely worth a try if you are in the mood for some good local diner food. I will be back. read more

I chose to eat lunch at Old Richmond Grill today. It is a breakfast and lunch place with dinner two days a week. The dining room seats about 25 including about a dozen counter seats. The owner is a local youth minister and proudly displays his faith prominently throughout the restaurant. My meal included a hot dog and a hot ham and cheese sandwich. The beef hot dog was grilled perfectly and served on a deliciously toasted bun with mustard, chili and slaw. Both sandwiches were excellent but the ham and cheese stood out enough that I will definitely visit again eat the same thing again. A variety of dessert is available including B&G Fried Pies. The waitress offered to heat the pie for me. I have never tried one of these heated before and being adventurous I agreed. I was incredibly satisfied with the result. Heating the pie with a little butter really kicked up the taste and quality of this pie! Considering I ate two sandwiches and a pie the entire meal was around seven dollars which is a fantastic price for a meal out. The waitress was the only member of the staff with whom I spoke. She was exceptionally friendly and provided fast and courteous service. The owner was also friendly and spoke to several other patrons over the counter between preparing meals. He seemed familiar with several of the other customers. Overall there was nothing negative to say about the meal. Everything was great and I will certainly return again soon. read more

I went today for the first time, mom and pop place, people very friendly and nice. I felt good. I ordered baked chicken with coffee slaw and pinto beans and cornbread. Oh my it was delicious like it came out of my mom's kitchen. My husband loved his meal as well. We will be going back a lot. And the price? Very reasonable. You want some home cooking? This is the place read more

Still love this place. The food is good, the prices are right, and the staff are friendly. Cannot beat a local, waterhole like that.

Horrible experience. I paid nearly $18 for two double cheeseburger specials. No drinks, soggy, half raw fries... Not to mention I was asked in front of other customers what I would like to tip. So naturally I felt obligated to do so even though my order was TAKE OUT. Server removed $1 bills from the register after asking me what I would tip and put them right into her own pocket... Sneaky. Absolutely will never go there again. read more

Yummy food, quick service, down home family atmosphere! I can't wait to visit again soon. So glad it is on my way to and from town. Prices and fantastic too!! Would recommend to everyone! read more

Was driving down the road to wine tasting and decided to randomly stop here. It was perfect! A little hole in the wall diner off the side of the road. Super friendly people and quick food with a smile. Not a lot room if it's crowded, but otherwise a perfect stop on the way to or back from wine tasting. It seems like the place where they would remember your name and order if you came back twice. I particularly liked the steak and cheese sandwich. Hit the spot! read more

Service was great. Grilled chicken salad was ok. Had two small bones in it.

Great lunch Hot Dogs, country meat and vegetables, Meat loaf, mashed Potatoes and greens. Breakfast with tenderloin biscuits, eggs, and sausage gravy. read more

We went for dinner tonight ( Monday night Sept 12, 2011) for the first time since they opened at the new location. They have 5 booths and about 10 lunch counter stools. The air conditioning seemed the right temp. There were two booths ope and we chose one. It is a very tiny restaurant but very quaint and friendly. We were greeted with enthusiasm and we ordered unsweetened tea. It was good. The menu has two sides, one for breakfast and the other for lunch and dinner. I ordered the fried chicken, mashed potatoes with gravy, green beans and a roll. They tasted very home cooked and I liked the food. My friend ordered the sausage and onions with cream potatoes and gravy, mixed veggies and cornbread. He enjoyed his food also. When we were through the waitress offered us a refill to go on the teas. The bill came to about $15 total not counting the tip. They ONLY take cash so come prepared. If you like fancy new style restaurants, this place is not for you. But if you like grandma's old fashioned southern cooking served in an old fashioned grill style building you will enjoy your visit and dinner. read more
