Richy's - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Hyde Park, Massachusetts

Everything was great!! The food the two ladies crew what a Jew!!! This is a must for all foodies to stop!! Just like eating at grandmas. Great place and setting! read more

I stumbled on a post that listed the best breakfast spots in the Boston area and this little place was in the top 5 so I had to check it out. To start it's in a convenient store and does have a true home grown feel to it. The ladies working there seem very social like they know everyone that comes in. The prices were pretty good compared to some other local places but I have to be honest the burger I had was pretty lackluster in flavor. Maybe in just picky but when I get lettuce I want it green, with all the white parts it tasted like I was eating cabbage on the burger. Also had the bacon egg and cheese and the grilled bread was a little too charred for me. I'll try again but the first shot was just ok. I guess good for the area read more

Richy's has been around since 1954 and it's clear why. Had a great breakfast- eggs toast hash and sausages- with fresh coffee for $11. The ladies working the counter know everybody and it's just a great welcoming place. Will be taking my daughter for breakfast soon. read more

Small, perfect menu at a classic diner with only bar seats. Quick, fun service. Cash only.

This place been around for over 55 years now!I love their Sammies whether it pastrami or corned beef you really can't go wrong. A lot of people rant and rave about he breakfast items I had it once or twice while I prefer their hot Sammies the fresh and filling!This rare vintage gem is a fav of mine and yours once you try it! Friendly staff is always a place! read more

I was in there the other day and was appalled at the conduct of the staff and the quality of the food. The people behind the counter had no interest in even pretending to adhere to the bare minimum food safety requirements let alone covid. Not one person was wearing a mask correctly or at and they seemed completely in different to enforcing it. Between that and a filthy restaurant, I promptly turned around and left immediately. Would not recommend! read more

I don't know how I've never been here but I will keep coming back! Pancakes made to perfection! Staff had the best humor and just the right amount of sass! I think they might be the only place with an assortment of bagel options for breakfast! 10 out of 10 would recommend! I love it here ! Paula and Susan might be my 2 new favorite people! Who would of thought the corner store would have such a great feel ! Ps I ate all my food so I couldn't post a pic! read more

Food was great, place is small, no tables , but two great ladies run this gem . Not too pricey and service with a smile

The best breakfast in Hyde Park! I've been to Richy's countless times to pick up my numbers in the morning, and I'll often get breakfast to go when I'm there. I honestly don't think I've ever had a bad meal from Richy's, the food is always delicious and cooked to order. Paula and Patty are so friendly and it's the kind of place where everyone knows your name. Truly a hidden gem in Hyde Park! read more

Delicious food, prepared by the two nicest ladies. I can fully recommend the corned beef hash with your eggs for breakfast and the hot pastrami sandwich (go for the Swiss, coleslaw and Russian dressing) for lunch! And their prices are a bargain. read more

My breakfast and coffee was delicious! The owners are friendly. I'll definitely be back!

I'm not really sure how I've had a place in Hyde Park for over 10 years and only NOW found this amazing gem. We headed over for Sunday brunch, which was SUPERB - we loved the general store drugstore atmosphere - it's almost as if it was frozen in time! We took the two empty seats at the counter and drooled over the menu - basic breakfast and lunch fare, all made to order. The whole place is family run, the woman cooking is (I was told) Richy's daughter, and she was assisted by a polite, friendly and helpful young (teenage) gentleman who was just learning the ropes of the family business. We ordered coffees (we waited for a fresh pot - I find that type of wait WORTH it!) eggs with bacon, hash browns and pumpernickel for him, eggs with bacon and corned beef hash for me, everything was cooked in front of us perfectly to order - classic, simple, and JUST what we wanted. Add to that, they have Portuguese hot peppers, which were the perfect companion to our meal, and we got ourselves some necco wafers and a lottery ticket afterwards. I left happy as a clam, and we'll definitely be back. read more

It's a shame this place isn't as there are not many breakfast places in the area. I went there and ordered sausages and eggs. Eggs were fine but sausages were cooked on only one side. Hash browns were hard and inedible. The worst thing about richys is cleanliness. My cutlery was filthy and water glass dirty. I asked for new knife and fork but these were as dirty with residual egg on fork. read more

I've been working in this area for over a year and mad I didn't find this place earlier. The ladies are amazing and the coffee is awesome too. You get to watch your meal getting cooked right in front of your eyes and prices are beyond fair. I usually get the Pharmacy Plate 2 which means toast, eggs, and two s read more

An old-school, tiny, local, nondescript luncheonette (counter service, lottery, cigarettes, hangout; haven't seen one of these in decades) with a single bar of stools for 9 people. Simple, delicious menu. Fantastic pancakes. Good service, good prices, friendly neighborhood place. And to top it off, an older gentleman paid for the tabs for everyone sitting there before quietly leaving! Pay it forward! read more

I live right next door to Richy's. I've been for breakfast a few times, never disappointed. Everything is made to order and it fascinates me to watch the food being prepared. Prices are very cheap, which is awesome! Happy that I live next door! read more

The breakfast was great. We had gotten it to go, enough for 4 people. Scrambled eggs with cheese, toast, pancakes, bacon, and shredded potatoes. Everyone had enjoyed it and there was more than enough food. read more

Best breakfast I've had in years. The bacon and hash browns were beyond perfect - eggs over easy were right on. Service was great - breakfast doesn't get any better. Love the counter with stools setup as well. read more

Richy's is a cool spot. No frills, just great food and kind people. I ordered the Pharmacy breakfast and when I asked where the name came from the manager told me the story of Richy's. I could tell she had pride in her restaurant. The food is prepared in front of you and you'll leave full and satisfied. I'll be back! read more

I wouldn't even give this place one star but it made me. I had to ask for a refund before my food was done. When I walked in the cook was eating her own food with gloves on, first violation, in the food industry that is a no no, then after getting our order. She then with the same gloves went in with her hands to put the potatoes on the grill, then she, with the same gloves went over and helped a couple at the lottery counter exchanging money and God knows what else, then she went in a back room, did something and came back to finish cooking. Never changed her gloves, she cut my bagel and through bacon on the grill and touched countless other things!!! When she asked why I cancelled my order I told her that she never changed her gloves! She didn't apologize, she just told the guy to give us the cash back!!!! Even if the Coronavirus was never a thing I would have still done the same thing! NASTY! I know we never know what goes on behind the scenes but to flat out do it in my fave?? NO read more

ok, based on the reviews stopped there this am. Place was as described but looking for the great breakfast. Wife ordered grilled bagel with side of bacon. I ordered Blueberry pancakes , eggs, bacon. So far so good. Food was delivered , wife requested jelly, jar pulled from fridge, wife opened jar covered with mold. My breakfast appears , looks good, cut into pancakes and they were not cooked inside. Ate the eggs,bacon and left the pancakes.Staff noticed yet said nothing, Disappointing to say the least!! read more

Fantastic people, atmosphere, and food! Wonderful family who owns and operates. I always leave here with a full stomach and smile on my face! read more

I was in the search for a breakfast sandwich, in the middle of the afternoon. Usually the only places still open that serve breakfast at that time are like Dunkin and i hate their nasty powdered eggs. I got a sausage egg and cheese on a plain bagel. They made my sandwich quickly and it was delicious. Bonus points because it was cheap. I never would've realized this place was here because it also has a convenience store. Truly a hidden gem. I can't wait to go back and try something else. read more

Excellent greasy spoon! Just stools at counter so you might have to wait however the food is worth it. Had the pharmacy breakfast plate, eggs were fantastic, perfect for bread dipping... Yum!

Nice low-key place to have breakfast or lunch. The food is delicious and keeps you coming back for more! I definitely recommend this place if you are hungry and in the area. read more

Truly believed that this place was a hidden gem. Food can be good depending on who is cooking. I encourage everyone to try the food for yourself. The French toast can be amazing when made properly. Service at times can be better as well as some issues with unclean utensils but overall the food is great for the price and options. It's great that you can get a breakfast plate any time of day. The sandwhiches are really good! read more

just had breakfast at richy's awesome place great food great people very clean place .

So here is a place that is part convenience store and part restaurant. I walked in to find regulars chatting with the staff. An old school pharmacy counter with stools, a breakfast / lunch menu, and cigarettes, scratch tickets, and groceries. They did not have decafe at such an early hour (about 7:30 AM), so I opted for juice, and they directed me to the cooler which had no less than 20 different juice options (fresh squeezed OJ fans will probably not find happiness here.) So there were some printed menus, but I decided to just look at the chalk board s above the grill, as they seemed to have everything for breakfast and lunch listed up there. They even have cute names like prescription 1 and prescription 2, basically describing the 2 eggs and side(s) with the familiar toast and home fries or hash browns. I opted for my favorite style of eggs (scrambled) and some bacon. As for the "toast" I decided to tempt fate and act liked a spoiled child and ask for a English Muffin off the grill, I was accommodated with no disdain whatsoever! I picked a bottle of juice out of the cooler (Mystic brand I believe) and sat down at the counter. I noticed they had some of those old school soda fountains but I did not ask or indulge. Sitting about 3 feet from the grill enabled to watch my meal being cooked - thankfully nothing out of the ordinary happened. On this day they had waffles, which some of the regulars said were worthwhile, but I had already placed my order, and I am not a huge waffle / pancake fan anyway. So the food arrives, and like most small places the portion size was above average. The hash browns were good and stringy - a sure sign of quality. The scrambled eggs were tasty, but not exceptional, however the bacon was great. It was not thick cut, but also not that thin - the flavor was what made it enjoyable - noting exotic or "apple wood smoked" but just a great example of what "standard bacon" should taste like. The English muffin was pleasing too - a big bigger and thinner that a Stop and Stop offering, and not a sweet one like a Bolo Levedo which sometimes happens when you go a bit south of the city. Corned beef hash fans take note - I saw the cooks scoping hash out of a can ,so you should head to 50's Diner in Dedham if you want the real thing. When I finished the food and juice, a total price was given to me - no check or bill or what have you. I paid in cash and was on my way. All and all a unique breakfast experience - not for better or worse. read more
