My boyfriend and I went here on a Sunday morning before heading back home. Since it was the off season, we were seated right away. Their breakfast menu was super impressive - a breakfast Philly sandwich, tons of Southwest options and so much more. I opted for the York Omelet, which had spinach, mushrooms, cheese and red onion, and I swapped the toast for a blueberry muffin. My boyfriend got the breakfast burrito. My omelet was delicious! The breakfast potatoes and muffin were great too. The breakfast burrito was HUGE and was absolutely delicious. Overall, a clean interior, friendly staff and comfortable dining room combined with great food makes for a nice breakfast spot. Highly recommend! read more

Always the friendliest vibes here! There are a few things to know in advance if you're a first-timer. It's very popular and so can be very crowded. No reservations. Waiting area is small. As it can be crowded, the noise level can be high. Yet it has -- usually -- excellent food. It's breakfast menu is extensive. We visit Rick's often,as it feels right. Totally unpretentious. Sadly on our most recent visit the poa he'd eggs were overcooked. Our waitress, Amy, noticed and immediately offered to replace them. Not wishing to waste food, we declined. The accompanying corned beef hash was tasty. We'll go back again and again. We just like Rick's. read more

9/2/2025 Update Still fantastic! We stuck with what we last ordered. I had The Cruiser, which is the best omelette I've ever had, and my husband had French Toast, potatoes, and sausage patties. Everything was excellent, served quickly and with great portions. This place is a gem. Also, I don't know what Rick's does for coffee, but it's easily my absolute favorite. Literally everywhere else, I always get a little "acidic stomach" feeling afterwards. Not at all with this coffee, it's that smooth. I highly recommend having a hearty breakfast at Rick's! read more

Rick's Restaurant - The Cruiser omelet with potatoes and sourdough toast. Magnificent! - American Near Me - York, Maine

Rick's Restaurant 9-9-25 Stopped by for some breakfast. Place was mostly full of locals and some not so local. This place is not fancy, but it was clean and neat. Our waitress Amy was on the ball with our Coffee and food orders. We ordered the Fraser Valley Breakfast which consisted of 2 Eggs, Potato's choice of Meat and Toast. We both opted for Ham as the meat. Our food came out quick for as busy as they were. Our Eggs were done just like we ordered them, perfect. The Potato's and Ham were both good. The food and Coffee were hot, and all was good. I guess the locals know where to go for a reasonable priced food that's plentiful and good. They do have a couple tables outside in the front to eat at if you don't want to be inside. There is also a counter to sit at. Seemed like the waitress their knew everybody's name and treated us like one of the locals also. Amy checked on us a bunch of times to make sure we were well taking care of. They even had old school trivia questions on paper at the tables to keep you amused. The Salt and Pepper shakers were in the shape of a Semi Truck. I just loved this place and their food. I give this place 4 out of 5 stars. Follow Me On FB For More Reviews & Fun Gulf Coast Terry read more

Super busy Saturday morning. But a could care less greeting with a 25 min wait. Turned into 45 min. Then were seated and ignored. Waitress did not acknowledge and then after 15 minutes greeted someone who was just sat and would not look our way. Our party gave up and walked out. Don't bother read more

We stopped in here the morning after a friends wedding in York Beach. What a quirky spot. I think our server was more hungover than us and the service was a bit off for that reason. The food was delicious and the restaurant smelled so inviting. I would return here if I'm back in the York area for breakfast again. read more

We have dined at Rick's Restaurant (aka Blue Jay Cafe) several times and every experience was top shelf. Kate served us and our food was absolutely wonderful, as always. I have never had a better omelet, it was perfect! My wife was thrilled with her Steak Bomb Sandwich and we can't wait to go back again! Thanks Kate! read more

Another great experience. Love the food and service. We come every year on vacation and this is our first stop for breakfast. Thanks

This is one of the best classic breakfast places (where they mainly just serve diner food) I've ever been too! We got the corned beef hash Benedict and Cape Neddick. The blueberry pancakes and the corned beef hash Benedict were especially delicious. The pancakes were probably the best blueberry pancakes I've ever had - usually I have a problem with them still being raw around the berries, but it wasn't the case here. The low was that there was no host upon arrival, so we just stood around until someone finally attended to us. Being that the food was so good, I wouldn't penalize this place for it. There was enough seating for us to get a spot pretty quickly on a holiday. read more

So I came here with my 3 buddies and this girl. It is kind of complicated with this girl I tried to throw some vibes out but then she threw some vibes my way and then my buddy threw vibes her way and that's when we started eating. My new buddy said this about the food "and if you go down there you better be aware" I am not sure what that means, but I got the salmon eggs Benedict and it was awesome and my friend thinks this is the best breakfast burrito he has had in a while. We ate at the girls house (yes I know) and she has two dogs. Sometimes I feel like a junkyard dog but in a cool way. Like I am a bad guy. But not mean, but I can win a fight. Don't try and mess with me or I will take care of business. read more

Rick's Restaurant - Hi to my friend we are at her house - American Near Me - York, Maine

The food was out of this world good. We had a great server she help with the menu and the drinks are delicious. The manmosa is a must have. read more

The atmosphere was cozy but cool. The menu options were great the food was good but not great. Our waitress must have been having a bad morning as she had attitude when I had to ask questions or had to send back my egg whites (that I asked to be cooked well done but they were juicy when they arrived). We had to ask for more coffee even though she was back and forth to the tables around us. The Cape Neddick came with eggs, homefries or fruit cup (not the freshest) and pancakes. The potatoes (were more like lumpy mashed potato's) The pancakes were delicious. The bacon was asked to be crispy but chewy was the best that they came out. The coffee was meh and just 3 sips came out of my iced coffee due to all the crushed ice. Maybe the waitress needs to write down how we wanted food vs. memorizing it ‍. We might come back here again but... read more

Wonderful atmosphere and best breakfast I ever had. The service was quick and friendly. I will come back again (and again)!

This is now known as Rick's Blue Jay Cafe Breakfast & Lunch. It is fabulous! I went there recently with a friend and had an amazing breakfast. Scrambled eggs, bacon, hash browns and toast with tea to drink. It was so much food, I ended up bringing most of it home and it was just as delicious when I heated it up later! My friend had a sesame bagel and scrambled eggs with coffee. She was also very happy with her meal. We were there for almost an hour catching up and the waitress was amazing and made sure our drinks were refilled when we needed them. The inside of the restaurant is open, not crowded and even has old fashioned counter seating. Lots of room and a great atmosphere! read more

Excelkent hash. I'm a corned beef hash lover (embarrassingly) and this was the best I've had in quite a long time. Cute place. Real maple syrup & one diner said the sausage patties were a "somewhat higher patty" than usual. Good pancakes and bacon. Good service, nice place, I'll be back. For the hash. read more

We arrived in Maine for our yearly trek and while driving in to town we noticed Rick's (formally Rick's of the village) moved to a new place formally Nanci's Restaurant and Catering. Oh DH we just have to try this place while we are here on vacation. We arrived with a jam packed parking lot thinking we would have to wait a long time but as breakfast goes most times breakfast eaters are in and out. After 15 minutes we got a table. The place has been refreshingly painted and simply decorated the waitress Jessa was very nice and served us as soon as we were seated. Breakfast was ordered and served promptly and efficiently and with delight very tasteful. We will surely come here again on our return to York next year. read more

Rick's Restaurant - Avocado toast with fruits and blackberries pancakes, and coffee of course. - American Near Me - York, Maine

Food is average. Home fries are boiled red potatoes that are barely warmed up on the flattop with zero seasoning. They are severely understaffed. Lines of people waiting while dirty tables sit empty and untouched. They need a busboy and a manager. The workers that are there have one speed, you know the Maine pace, I'll get there when I get there. Seriously, Nancy's was much better. Oh and there's at least one waitress who refuses to write anything down so she inevitably comes back to your table to quiz you on what you ordered. Write it down!! It's not my job to remember what you refuse to write down. read more

We always stop here when in the area for breakfast never disappoints. Usually a wait but that's a good thing. Great food friendly service. Seems like a local fav--also good read more

My first time in Maine. Rick's was recommended by one of the locals, it did not disappoint. The lobster roll was fresh and filling. Check that off the bucket list. Thank you for the great service and friendly staff. read more

Rick's Restaurant - Lobster roll - American Near Me - York, Maine

Was pretty excited for this place and it was quite busy, but it didn't end up wow-Ing me. Decor was kind of fun, eclectic grandma style. There was potential. I had high hopes. Unfortunately, the food was very bland. I added salt and pepper to my food just to try and give it something, which I never do at restaurants -- so that tells you something. The couple next to us as we were leaving sent their whole meals back to the kitchen. I felt bad for the staff but it is what it is. Our server was an odd bird, there were a few odd comments and she scolded the cooks for something she was waiting on loudly from across the room. Other staff were fine. read more

Food came fast but service was slow. No second cup of coffee offered. Mushy watery breakfast potatoes. Jest meh.

Food was delicious. Cute restaurant with games for kids well they wait, which was great because service was terrible. Our waitress forgot to put our order in then she blamed the cooks. When I asked her almost an hour later when I heard her tell the cooks the order she said they say they told me the printer didn't work. Then snarkily replied to you not want your food. read more

Corn beef hash amazing. Lobster omlette so good. My picky eater 5yr old gobbled his chocolate chip pancakes and bacon and fruit and wanted more which is unlike him :). The waitress was so kind and friendly. No wait even though parking lot looked full. Coffee good too. Def recommend read more

Food was barely edible. Poached egg cooked to death and hollandaise sauce was tasteless . Disappointing, hopefully they have a better day

Quick service and delicious breakfast. The Fraser breakfast was excellent, and the Cruiser omelet may be the best I've ever had. The bacon was smoky, crisp, and perfect. Coffee was what you would expect from a diner. read more

Stopped by for breakfast over on 8/19/23 with a group. There were 4 of us, and when we arrived, we stood at the entrance for several minutes before anyone even acknowledged our presence. This was the first strange interaction here, there was one waitress in particular who seemed grumpy and annoyed this morning. But eventually we were acknowledged and asked to wait for a table. There were several open tables but the wait didn't take long, just the weird interaction that followed. In any case, we were directed to outside seating (not really given an option) which is fine, there were 4 of us, and at least 3 of us got the same plate for breakfast, the Lobster Bennie. We asked the waitress for a recommendation and she stated this was very good, "we should get 4 oz of lobster with this." Sat down, and waited forever for coffee to arrive, but kept the positivity and just chatted away while we waited. Eventually got our coffees, and breakfast. Let me just say the positive first (tasty food for sure). But portion wise, this was absolutely laughable, a kid could eat more! Also these plates were NOTHING alike, the inconsistency between them was astonishing. Portions were completely different from one breakfast plate to the other (even when they were identical order wise)! I nearly send my breakfast back in its entirely (I was so disappointed) and went else where but I was so famished that I just couldn't, and riding so I needed something in my stomach after the long 30-45 min wait to get my food and the 2 hr. ride up north to Portland from NH's seacoast. Let me just say, there was barely *any* lobster on my plate, 4 oz? There weren't even 2oz! I don't often smack down a restaurant but I also don't often feel I pay $19 for a plate of food that leaves me hungry. I was hungry after paying $20 plus for breakfast here!!! Despite the taste being good, I feel like I was discriminated against for being a biker perhaps? Speaking a foreign language? Not a good first impression, and I would avoid this place again and tell all my biker riding along northbound on rt 1, friends don't come here you will not be treated right which is probably what they intended anyway is my guess. read more

This restaurant is definitely a "Diamond in the rough"!!!!! It's delicious and you need to try the breakfast burrito!!! OMG!!!! The service was quick once we sat at the bar. There is a wait but worth it. The ambiance is nothing fancy but quant. Loved the trivia cards in the sugar bowl. Passed the time until food came which was not a long wait. read more

Service was quick, friendly and attentive. Super impressed because we were with a bigger group of 12 people. Ricks is kid friendly and they even make the kids' pancakes look like bunny ears. Pancakes are GINORMOUS. I am a big eater and I don't think I could have eaten more than one and a half. Home fries are the perfect mix of crispy and mashed. One of my favorite breakfast places in York. read more
