This place is very unique in a simple way. i found this spot online and heard it was cheap and old school and that caught my interest. i went with the gf to get two orders of cheeseburgers, fries and one chili cheese dog. the food quality is classic drive in, nothing crazy but nostalgic in lack of a better word. the fries here are great but my favorite part was the chili cheese dog. reading the communities reviews it seems this place is mostly known for their hotdogs and i gotta agree their hotdogs are pretty good. service is fast and efficient and their prices are pretty good! i will be back! read more

Richard's Drive In - Cheeseburger French Fries Hot Dog - Sandwiches Near Me - Easton, Pennsylvania

Best hot dogs in Easton Area...Period! Steaks good! Soft Ice Cream and thick Shakes! Great! Service is quick even when busy! read more

I've been driving by this cool looking spot for months so today I decided to give it a try. Ordered a few "California burgers" with cheese and some cheese fries. It may have been a little busy so they forgot the onions on my California burgers. The buns could've been fresher because they felt and tasted a little on a dry side, even broke apart easily. The service was reasonably quick although I was skipped over by a guest. The ambience was typical for a fast food joint. Drink selection is limited. I did enjoy their vanilla shake. read more

Came to Easton from FL. First stop was Richard's. I got a cheese steak. Roll was not the same and didn't taste like I remember. Not near as good as they used to be. read more

Service is always great. Never had a problem. I've been going for over 10 years and the cheese fries here are amazing.

Fast service and delicious food. No ... you won't get a "diet" meal, but you will enjoy it! The small indoor space promotes a strange type of camaraderie ... everyone hungry with anticipation of the great taste to come :) read more

Not the prettiest but makes great food! I will stop here anytime I want a quick bite. Thank you Richard's staff!!

Great food, friendly service, locally owned. I can never choose just hamburger or hotdog, here, so my suggestion is to get both. Great fries, too! What else could you ask for?! read more

Read the reviews and almost didn't go. Not the best chili dog but very tasty and neat. Smelled the bacon upon entering so I got a bacon cheeseburger. It was just right. Now the fries are where our meal shined. Had to go in for a second order. They were so soft inside. Almost mashed potato soft with the perfect crispy shell. It does not deserve reviews less than 3 stars even if you had a bad item. All the workers were very nice! read more

Cheeseburgers were a little too greasy for me little red inside but I did go inside and told them about it. They offer me two new ones and I told him no. read more

Richard's was the ultimate in basic hamburgers, cheeseburgers, Hot dogs, cheesesteaks, French fries. Soft ice cream. Ihad been going to Richard's many years. Prices have gone up like everywhere else The quality has gone down!! Unfortunately, they have cut down on the sizes of their steak sandwiches, The rolls got shrunken down to 3/4 of the size of the originals. It's like all the other original places that had great food and a good reputation, But it seems like no one is sticking to the original formulas that make people want to come back. All portions seem to be sacrificed. It's a shame. I knew Nick well. He would not be happy. The original owners were really great people. read more

Love this place!!! Hot dogs great and many side options! There are tables outside and the prices are good.

A long way from my memory of this place. Food sucked, Greasy Dicks kinda spells out what this is. Nick, Teddy and Jimmy would have never served this read more

The burgers were absolutely nothing special. The French fries were the same frozen things I can buy at Giant. The prices were high. No thank you! I can say I went once because everyone raves about it. They can keep it. Avoid! read more

I grew up in Easton and this place went right in the toilet. Super high prices and low quality. Stale buns their cheeseburger taste like wood it's sad. It used to be a great place. read more

I've been going to Richard's since I was a kid. Always loved it. It's become pricey over the years and the service isn't the same. Often order 3 hot dogs and get 2, coke with no ice and get ice, overdone fries. Depends who is working. If some of the older crew is working, it's better. When the younger workers are on, that's when the orders are not always accurate. Sorry, still love the place, it's just changed over time. read more

Comfort food is the best especially here at Greasy Dicks. A favorite since I was a kid, I love their cheesesteaks! Pirogies and fries are great too as are their milkshakes. You can't beat the prices either. Stop in to grab a bite, you won't be disappointed. Be sure to bring cash as they don't accept credit cards. They do have an ATM machine. read more

Richard's Drive In - Love this place! - Sandwiches Near Me - Easton, Pennsylvania

Only stopped for ice cream. Parking was an issue due to overcrowding from business next door. Owners frustrated, rude to customers. They need signs posted for their restaurant parking spots and enforcing legally not by threatening people with flattened tires if they're parked too long. Will not return due to extremely rude woman behind the counter. read more

Started eating at Richard's when it first opened in 1966. Some of my classmates are in a photo on the counter. It was basically a staple 2 or 3 times a week until I left the area in 69. I never pass up a chance to stop by when back visiting friends and relatives. Great menu! Cheers! read more

Have a hotdog with everything, a cheeseburger with the works, and a black and white milkshake and taste your childhood. Richard's Drive In, better known to locals as Greasy Dick's. What an institution! Hotdogs still are less than a dollar. The food here is made to order, and made great. If your watching your waistline, you may wanna pass. Hotdogs are fried in peanut oil. Burgers are cooked to order on an old school flat top grill. The buns are steamed and slathered with ketchup and mustard. The onions are the finest of fine chopped. The service is always friendly and they pump out the food, believe me. Always a treat and a step back in time at Greasy Dick's (I can't even call it Richard's). The food is terrific. read more

No frills, classic burgers, and super satisfying. If you want health food, bathrooms, variety, or white glove service, look elsewhere. If you want to pick up a couple of greasy burgers quickly with hot fries and a cone or milkshake, this is your place. Nothing fancy, get the burgers with everything and you won't be disappointed. For the same price as McD's you can get 2 hot, cooked to order burgers that aren't frozen and fries made the moment you order. Can't complain about that. Eat outside or in your car. Cash only, be an adult and make eye contact with one of the employees and they will serve you as soon as they can. read more

I did not grow up in the area and the only reason I know about this place is because of my boyfriend who remembered years ago that his mom liked the milkshakes.... One day while we were in the area we stopped and I'm so glad we did. It is a little "hole in the wall" place but the food is excellent, the people are friendly (hey boss man) and the black raspberry shake is like no other. It is now a staple stop when we want a quick bite. read more

My boyfriend was having a rough night at work and called me to grab him a few cheeseburgers for when he gets off because he has been craving Richard's. I called Richard's last night around 8:30 pm to ask what time they close as Google isn't always 100% accurate. The woman on the phone told me 9:00 pm. I arrived at 8:45 pm to find the employees sweeping and mopping the floor. I approached the door, and it was locked so I motioned to the employees. They motioned back that they were closed. If you close at 9:00 pm, the door says 9:00 pm, Google says 9:00 pm, and the woman on the phone said 9:00 pm, why are the doors locked at 8:45? Why are the employees sweeping and mopping at 8:45? If you want to lock up and clean at 8:45, I suggest you change your closing time on Sundays to 8:30. This was extremely frustrating and definitely turned me off to this establishment. read more

Very Old school. My experience was pretty good there. The person who takes your order pretty much takes care of you, cooks, assembles order etc and checks you out. Food was not bad. It's a quick drive in kind of place and this place delivered exactly that. Had a cheeseburger, onion rings and a shake. Only downside is cash only, but hey, pricing is great. Would definitely come back read more

Classic place to get a quick and delicious bite to eat. Not healthy at all but that's alright. Milkshakes, perogies & burgers are YUM!

Greasy Dick's, baby! Best in the biz! Good milkshakes. Great fries, get em with salt and ketchup.

the mustard, onion, and the pickle are what you get when they ask you if you want everything on it. Say yes. You will not be disappointed. Some 40 years ago I asked for one with mustard, onion , and pickle. I was immediately informed " Thats a hot dog ". Try 'em read more

Stopped for lunch on the way to a service call. Grabbed the cheese steak, easy on the sauce with pickle. Great roll, just the right amount of meat & sauce, wrapped in foil paper. Ate at the very new covered tables right outside the shop. Used to walk across the parking lot to a picnic table right next to the billboard. I will return! read more

Worst experience I have had at any ice cream place in the Lehigh Valley. We got there and were not greeted just asked "What do you want? We only have chocolate ice cream" so my friend ordered a chocolate milkshake and then went to pay and he said cash only. She did not have cash and he pointed at the ATM. The milkshake was $4 and it was a very small cup too. Service was awful, I will be returning here. read more

This place has had the best cheeseburgers for as long as a remember. It's been in business for over 50 years I'm pretty sure. It's a simple hotdog stand with burgers , fries shakes and things like that and it's cheaply priced. However it is cash only, but they have an atm inside Incase you forget. It's simple and quick here and whenever I am home I make sure to stop by. By far one of the best places in Easton, be sure to check it out! read more

There is something about the soft yet crispy hamburger buns that I love at Richards, although my wallet feels they are WAY overpriced. This place I enjoy greatly, and is known throughout the area. You will see cars packed in the lot, and a very unorganized line of people ordering food....that is just the way it is and always has been. Accept it and enjoy the fact that you are a part of the icon. If there were such a think as a Dairy Bar Ranking List, this one would be near the top. They don't have 50,000 items on the menu, it is not very complex, but what they do make, they make well. Go and enjoy it. read more

Just went to Richard's Drive In A.k.A- Greasy Dicks!! My family goes here frequently and I happen to surprise my love with a Banana Split and while waiting an older women (Employee) is outside doing the garbage emptying the cans and putting new trash bags in. Ok no issue right!! WRONG she comes in and starts flipping burgers on the grill without washing her hands then returns back outside to finish emptying more garbage cans. Never going again!! Besides this issue they ALWAYS get order wrong. read more

To be blunt, it has a cult following. If it wasn't for this, then the place wouldn't be half as busy. The food is okay, but just as the local nickname implies, it is greasy food. There is no line....you just show up and when someone looks at you, you give your order. Want to clean out your insides? This is like going to white castle and getting everything on the menu. If you wanted a good hot dog, Yocco's is the place to go to, even if it does mean traveling a bit to get there. read more

As a "greasy spoon" this place - it's the best. Whether ordering hot dogs, hamburgers, steak sandwiches or milkshakes - they are a taste of nostalgia! Their sister place in Fork's Twp. allows for credit card payment and inside dining. But loses the points on "old time charm". Richard's is the place to go after a ball game or on a Saturday afternoon after a morning of yard work. Stop in after dinner for a cone, shake or sundae (soft serve). The bright pink building may make you wonder - but once you stand in line and order you'll find at least 50 more people file in behind you! They are a part if the community and make basic grilled food a necessity. Be sure to bring cash - because they do not accept plastic. For the convenience of the unsuspecting there is an ATM inside the building. While you are waiting for your order (which is barely 5 mins) - enjoy the pictures of Palmer and Easton from years past. Like I said - it is nostalgia! read more

Great little burger joint. Outdoor seating was nice, even though it's next to a busy intersection. Would have got 5 stars if they served tomatoes with the burger. read more

Richard's Drive In - the outside of the restaurant - Sandwiches Near Me - Easton, Pennsylvania

Richard's has a great quick eats menu - dogs, burgers, cheesesteaks, cones, sundaes, fries, etc. The owner of Richard's used to work for Jim's Doggie Shop & "borrowed" their dog w/ everything recipe from Jimmy's (yellow mustard, chopped raw onions, & fresh dill pickle slice). Their cheesesteaks are pretty good as are their burgers. Their shakes are GREAT. If you enjoy eating @ Spot Drive-In (aka The Spot) up on Hecktown Rd in Bethlehem, then you're going to LOVE Richard's. Everything is just a little bit better here (esp the dogs!). This is a great place to go w/ the kids for a quick treat, or to share a big shake w/ the one you adore while sitting on the benches on a hot summer day. read more

If you want great customer service and your order correct, do not go here. If I could give it zero stars I would. Not sure if ownership changed, but the management sure did. Instead of correcting an order or apologizing, the management here actually says "well, we do have high school kids working here". I wonder if you go to target and someone scans your item 3 times and makes you pay for it, if their excuse would be they employ high school kids. Unbelievable. I'll be sure to write this review on every platform. read more

In the course of doing research for an article on ice cream for a Lehigh Valley food publication, we rolled into Richard's to try their custard. Definitely a no-frills kind of place. I'll start with this - we each ordered a small cone - but were shocked by how small the served cone was! It was, like, a "kiddie cone" - and priced @ $3.10. The custard itself was creamy & sweet, but competitors clearly serve up a larger size cone for the money. Hence the two star rating. read more

The original Richard's location. Nice cheesesteaks and other "grease joint" grub. No indoor seating. Limited outdoor seating. Second location in Forks Township with slightly larger menu and indoor seating. read more
