    Oh wow, my first experience here was so good I made a special trip a few days later to try more items and be equally impressed again! The name and restaurant itself don't really jump out, as it in general looks like a fairly standard cafe that you'd find anywhere. However the food here is really the star and I'll go more into it shortly. Parking here can be a bit tricky when it's busy around the area, but there's a good amount of public parking fairly close by. Service is very friendly and prompt, even when busy. They are quite good at fulfilling orders at a good pace even when busy, which is quite impressive given the size and staffing levels. The decor is quite fun, very much a nod to the local area and unique flavor and vendors that are available. I like this as it helps me remember this restaurant as something that uniquely represents Richmond. The drinks I tried here were all done quite well. I found the coffee to be smooth and not too acidic. Hot chocolate was very flavorful and just rich enough, definitely tastes like it's from melted chocolate rather than from a powder. Mocha was smooth, not super strong and had a good extra layer of complexity from the colombian chocolate. The food was definitely the star here. The chocolate waffle was quite unique here as it had chocolate in the batter with chocolate chips and chocolate syrup on top. This was interestingly not overly sweet and quite delicious. The richmond stack was quite spongy with a nice flavor to the batter. I do like how fresh the whipped cream tasted and how the berries were also the perfect ripeness. The pancakes also soaked in the syrup quite well and had a firmness that made them fairly easy to cut. The french toast was another standout dish, with just a light bit of egg flavor and a food fluffiness. The quality of the berries and whipped cream once against shone here and created a balanced bite. The parfait was similarly prepared well and quite delicious. The meat lover's skillet here was packed with meat and the egg was nice and fluffy. It had a good distribution of meat inside and each bite was flavorful without being overly salty. Overall, this is worth a stop on my way up to Lake Geneva or Lake Delavan for a delicious meal. The prices are quite reasonable for quality and service is friendly and reasonably fast.

    Nova bagel. So good!

    The food and coffee is amazing. And the staff is so nice. Try the nova lox bagel. The fresh sliced cucumber and dill was a nice touch.

    Richmond Cafe was a great find. I've driven through Richmond on my way to Lake Geneva, Wisconsin many times. This cute cafe has very friendly staff and fantastic food. I ordered the chocolate waffle. There was chocolate in the batter and chocolate drizzle on top. It comes with fresh strawberries and blueberries. It was amazing. I also ordered the single source hot chocolate. It tasted like a melted chocolate bar. They also sell art made by local artists. I can't wait to come back and try more food and drinks. I can't recommend Richmond Cafe any higher!

    Meh.. food always good but service this time was weird.. We went yesterday around 1pm for a brunch, usually an overall good experience but our waiter just took our plates without asking if we were finished... my mother still had part of her waffle left.. This wasn't our usual waiter so I get that but management please work on waiter etiquette.. (ASK BEFORE YOU TAKE) We're not assholes so we let it slide but please advise, I don't want the waiter bashed for doing this to the wrong person. We didn't tip her directly but put something in the tip jar, hopefully the hint was taken.

    Located on the main street in Richmond this cafe offers an open air spacious atmosphere. Menu features a variety of coffees, breakfast, and lunch. The chocolate strawberry latte was served with a lovely presentation. Breakfast sandwich was good. I ordered the three cheese panini. The cheese was not melted and the sandwich was served cold. They do offer crayons and coloring books for children. Service was mediocre- staff talking at bar. The bathrooms could definitely use a deep clean.

    Chorizo omelet with hash browns

    Great place. I've been here twice on work trips to Richmond, and I enjoyed it every time. The cold brew is good, as well as the hibiscus iced tea. I got the seasonal maple latte last time, and it was excellent -- nice maple taste but not too sweet. The last time I also got the chorizo omelet with hash browns and hot sauce. I asked to remove the cheese, as I'm lactose challenged, but even without the cheese it was delicious. Portion was good, and the service was excellent. The cafe itself is large but still cozy, and parking out front is easy. Next time I go to Richmond I would definitely go back.

    We decided to get away on a long weekend. We found ourselves walking downtown Richmond, IL. For an early lunch we hopped into the Richmond Cafe. It is a clean, spacious, and quaint area. I had the coffee, hummus, potato salad, avocado toast. My kids had grilled cheese. My wife had a sandwich. The meals were all good. My wife and I really wanted the soup, but it was out. My wife drinks decaf but they weren't able to grind beans that day. Those things happen and when they do, what happens? At this place, the customer service of the woman serving us really shined. She was perfect - understanding, offering solutions and providing us with excellent service. Thank you for that!

    The breakfast burrito was horrendous and the server girl kept getting my wife's order wrong. Won't be back

    Cafezinho a must try! It is a small cafe that could easily accommodate your group of 6. Anything…read morebigger would be tight. The whole place sits about 20 people? But the food is amazing. The portions are small so make sure you order accordingly. I ordered 2 chicken empanadas and I was only going to order one so glad I didn't! The taste is beyond. I'm not familiar with Brazilian cuisine but these were delish! Our table also ordered Coxinha Chicken Catupiry. A must try. The staff was beyond friendly and very helpful with ordering.

    When it comes to flavor, Cafezinho is not shy at all. We came by on a Saturday afternoon after…read morelunch and wanted to try their arepas and empanadas. If you come during peak time just know you may need to wait a bit as everything is made fresh to order. They were also sold out of a lot of things but we got to try their cheese balls, chicken arepa, arepa pepiada, and their Brazilian ribs arepa. The cheese balls came out piping hot, we got 4 with our order. They were little balls of fluffy cheese breads that have a similar texture to mochi. It was great! We shared or arepas so we could try more, and none of them disappoint. The chicken arepa was by far my favorite, it was creamy, cheesy, full and full of flavor. The ribs one was a tad dry for me. We did order extra sauces but we didn't get them, and we didn't want to ask as they were too busy. Busy maybe with the sauces it would've helped. The cafe itself is super cute and small inside but the have a whole back patio that's perfect for the nice weather for you to enjoy. Overall, a good experience. We may just go during off times to avoid our super long wait for our food.
