I was getting my hair done next door today at 1213 and needed lunch super close considering I had foils in. I made a great choice. Greenbriar made one of the BEST turkey sammiches I've ever had- it was slightly sweet, sharp, fresh, creamy...literal perfection. The sammich is called The Fan and I will be returning asap since I only had time to eat half of it.
Literally the nicest people ever and so cool that they have a monthly drink menu! Best local spot :)
Do you remember that episode of SpongeBob where he has to compete with King Neptune to make the best burger? The one where Neptune makes 1000 mediocre burgers and SpongeBob takes his time making just one, but it’s the tastiest and best burger there was? That’s how Greenbriar Cafe is compared to every coffee shop in Richmond when it comes to breakfast sandwiches. Their food and drinks can take a little bit of time to make and some days they’re high in demand, but everything is made with love and the portions are worth the money. Highly recommend their breakfast sandwich with sausage as they make their pattys in house and are almost as thick as a burger, and if you need something to cover both breakfast and lunch, their burritos are massive. Every month they update their menu with fun drink specials too. Highly recommend this coffee spot for regulars and visitors from out of town.
Coffee and food is good. It is worth noting that they do not offer indoor seating. This helpful information is not to be found online. Their website is not active and their Facebook page indicates that they have an inviting, cozy space inside for you to enjoy. That space is off limits. Also, I was hassled by aggressive panhandlers who were hanging around outside the coffee shop. This was my experience, you might not have the same experience. Food and coffee gets an A, but overall experience brings them down to a C+.
This place is great, I love that they are open on Mondays whereas every other place serving any type of bagel is closed. Their salmon and lox is great as is their coffee, especially their special drinks and holiday drinks!!
Always a treat going here for a latte! The menu is seasonal and fun
First time visit, customer service was superb, but I was not at all impressed with my breakfast food option (veggie wrap, not pictured). I may try another food option in the future, but will for sure return for coffee!
They have the best of everything. The lattes are phenomenal, their food is delicious and the staff are so amazing and kind. Check this wonderful place out!
While visiting Richmond I was craving some local (not chain) coffee and Greenbriar did not disappoint. They had some delicious coffee drinks and really tasty breakfast sandwiches, too. If I happen to be back in their neck of the woods, I will definitely be stopping by again.
I picked up an iced malted mocha latte and a breakfast burrito with sausage this morning and immediately knew I had to write a review. I’m visiting Richmond for a few weeks and have tried a couple of the highly reviewed coffee shops in the area (roastology & Ironclad). While they were good, they didn’t leave me wanting to rush back. Greenbriar left me wanting to run back and hand over my wallet and maybe even my first born child. This place is incredibly good. The iced malted mocha latte was incredibly creamy with a perfect dose of chocolate. I haven’t had a latte this good since visiting Seattle two years ago. The breakfast burrito was incredible and enormous. The sausage was nice and spicy, the eggs were perfectly scrambled, and the pico was on on-point. It is definitely big enough to split or save some for later. It was counter service with a few tables outside to wait so I wouldn’t recommend trying to work/study from there. Overall this place is a hidden gem with delicious coffee and tasty food. I highly recommend it and I’m only sad that I found this place in my last week here.
I love this cute coffee shop! I stopped by on a whim one day just looking for caffeine and found a funky latte flavor instead. Love the cool dollhouses inside and the kind staff.
cute place with friendly people. the sausage egg and cheese was bussin'
Delicious coffee and breakfast bagel. Husband and wife owners, Meredith and Julius. Love that they have a takeout window.
I get breakfast here all the time. Bacon egg and cheese with double shot of espresso. It never fails to satisfy.
Starbucks who????
Their February special white chocolate chai latte is one of the best things ever. Not cheap but this drink is worth it. Cafe is takeout only for now and there is very little outdoor seating
Usually coffee shops makes their flavored lattes far too sweet for my taste, but Greenbriar had the perfect coffee to flavor balance. The best seasonal drink in RVA, if I don't convince you the smell as you walk past the store definitely should!
Friendly service and a cute location. Unfortunately seating is limited and the coffee is expensive. But if you got some change in your pocket and just want to walk around, this is perfect for you.
Amazing food and service! Please support this business!
This place is soooo good, the breakfast burrito with homemade sausage is AMAZING 🤤
