Rich Café
About This Spot
Stepping into Rich Café feels like being welcomed into a cherished neighborhood nook where the pace gently slows and familiar comforts take center stage. Nestled just a short stroll from Richmond Bridge, this cozy corner offers a soothing atmosphere that balances the quiet hum of morning chatter with the warmth of genuine hospitality. The soft murmur of friendly conversations, the aroma of freshly brewed coffee, and the sight of well-worn wooden tables invite you to settle in, whether for a leisurely brunch or a quick catch-up over cakes and coffee.
The heart of the experience here lies in its relaxed everyday charm. You might find yourself drawn to a hearty breakfast that nourishes both body and spirit, or savoring a simple yet satisfying lunch made from thoughtfully prepared ingredients. The menu unfolds naturally through the day—comforting classics appear alongside fresh bakes and seasonal treats, each bite echoing the care of a place that knows its regulars and welcomes newcomers with equal warmth.
There’s a subtle rhythm to the space, busy enough to feel alive but intimate enough to feel like a well-kept secret. The staff’s attentiveness adds to the quiet assurance that you’re in good hands, with small gestures that make all the difference—whether it’s accommodating furry companions or offering a recommendation for that morning pick-me-up. Outdoors, a modest scattering of tables invites you to enjoy soft sunlight and the gentle street life, making Rich Café a gentle hub where everyday moments feel a little richer.
Here, the mix of familiar faces and fresh first-timers creates a quiet sense of community woven through the simple pleasure of sharing a good meal, a well-crafted drink, and thoughtful company. Rich Café is less a destination and more a welcome pause, a place to feel grounded and restored against the flow of daily life.

Had a wonderful lunch at the cafe. The food was delicious and the portions were generous. It's much more affordable than the restaurants on the other side of the river, and the staff were great.

The almond croissant was truly wonderful and the coffee was superb. My dog was able to stay with us while we had brunch, and they brought us a dog bowl with some small sausages. They were lovely.

Great little cafe just a short walk over Richmond Bridge. Always great food and service. Real value for money. Plenty of seating and a few tables outside. Good hearty food and a reasonable selection. Recommend the Full English Breakfast & Scrambled Eggs with Salmon. Usually quite busy mid morning but its worth the wait ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐

“Rich cafe is very welcoming and cosy place with wonderful location. Every time we go there if it is just for a coffee, family breakfast or lunch, there is always plenty options to choose from tasty food and yummy deserts. The staff is so polite and helpful, going above and beyond to make us feel welcome. Thanks Mario for the wonderful care given to us. Forever repeat customers!”

The best value Full English Breakfast in Richmond Mario's paninis, baguettes & wraps, with your choice of fillings, are a great takeaway snack - or if you prefer a spot of sit-down brunch then try the scrambled egg, with or without smoked salmon/ mushrooms/ or other accompaniments. Lovely freshly baked cakes and wonderful homemade muffins! Patient, attentive and caring staff, no matter how busy this place gets. Thank you, Mario, Grace, Salma, et al.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I had to come to East Twickenham to get my car sorted, so while I was waiting, I decided to pop in for breakfast. I’d been here a few years ago when I lived in Twickenham, so it was nice to return — and I’m glad I did. The service was very good, and the team were friendly too, which always makes a difference. My breakfast was cooked to perfection and really tasty. It properly filled me up for the day. It was great to see the place busy, with the owner greeting regulars by name — such a lovely touch that makes people feel welcome and appreciated. I’ll definitely be back more often. It’s great to support an independent business like this one.

This is the local cafe at the end of our street. We usually only get coffee but decided today to try the big fried breakfast. Well, what to say? It was huge, delicious, and great value. All the meats tasted lovely and the portion was very generous. The folks running the cafe are always superb. Always happy and greet you with a smile and a joke. They remember your order after your first visit and really make the cafe a nice place to visit and hang out. If you want a cheeky breakfast (it’s on all day so even have it for lunch) treat then we’d definitely recommend stopping in.
