Richardson Farms

I agree with everything else people say is great about this place– Yummy food, cute little market, nice staff, etc. They always have chicken necks for crabbing too. Plus their in house lunch meat is delish.
The only complaint I have is the lack of organic products; really wish there were more. It would definitely be my go-​to grocery. I love that there is some local produce, but it stinks it’s not a great local and/​or organic selection for pantry and out of season produce.
If you don’t care about organic or are just popping in for lunch it’s definitely 5 stars

I can’t say enough great things about Richardson, the greens are outta this world! EVERYTHING is so fresh!!! You go in for a quick bite to eat & come out with a cart full and wallet empty!

Well it’s crowded everyone’s here working on getting their fresh turkeys for the holiday for Thanksgiving. There’s a line you have to wait for the turkey place order then you’ll pick it up but it’s fresh and ready to go

This is what every grocery store should strive to be! It’s like a mix of Trader Joe’s, Whole Foods, and a farmer’s market blended with a deli sandwiched between a sandwich shop and a diner.
I love the gorgeous seating outside and the sort of hectic, but laid-​back vibe you get when you eat a meal here. Ordering can feel rushed, but the menu is simple and they’re happy to help with everything. The actual grocery store inside is beautiful and has a huge selection of organic produce and awesome local stuff to buy.
It’s a little out of the way, but I think it’s totally worth stopping by for lunch. The cream of crab soup is stupendous.

Pros:
Good, small selection of produce and very good selection of meats. The folks who work here are friendly. It’s certainly off the beaten path of people in a little town next to White Marsh, MD but if you’re close, check it out.
There’s a lunch and dinner spot and the back of the store where you can get prepared foods, sandwiches, wraps, soups, etc.
There’s a free parking lot.
There’s also a large climate controlled greenhouse on the side where you can go have lunch, etc.
Cons:
Location is not super accessible.
Food in the back of the store for lunch or dinner is loaded with salt. Not healthy at all.
For a farm, I expected healthier selections of sauces, groceries, and prepared foods but this isn’t the case. In one instance, the jellies and sauces with peppers, etc had high fructose corn syrup in it and some pasta had articifial flavors and colors. What?!? Where do they grow THAT on a farm?
Overall: Not bad for a lunch in the greenhouse if you don’t have high blood pressure or if you choose a plain wrap without the added items.
Good two in one spot — pick up a few groceries and a sandwich. Free parking is a win. However, the «farm» part is misleading as there’s hardly any organic or pesticide free items.

I have been going here for lunch 5 days a week for a few years now. It never gets old for me. My go to is rotisserie chicken and collard greens which are available every day. The grocery store has fresh local products and the bakery is excellent as well. The people there are always friendly and I recommend this place to everyone.

I’ve been to Richardson’s countless times. I mainly stop by for a lunch, but I’ve picked up a few things here and there along the way…
THE GOOD…
–easy to find parking in lot
–staff is usually polite
–crab mac is awesome!
–crabby cheesy scallop potatoes are unbelievably good!!!
–old bay corn is good
–regular mac n cheese is good
–carries local products
–prices are pretty fair
–tons of sweets
–nice big dining area outside
THE BAD…
–hardly see anything labeled organic, especially produce
–sells way too much junk food
–no small discount for bringing in your own recyclable bags
–I tried apples here once that looked good, but were mostly rotten on the inside
–some local pastas they sell are loaded with artificial colors and high fructose corn syrup
Overall I do like Richardson’s, but don’t be fooled that just because this is a small local market the majority of what they sell is healthy… that couldn’t be further from the truth… however, if you don’t mind a little cheat here and there this is a good place to grab a meal.

Amazing sandwiches. An Angry Bird with Boom Boom sauce cannot be beat. I love their pies and snacks, too, and how they sell their baked goods by weight. Great stop on the way back from Gunpowder or from running errands up and down 95 or Rt 1.

Finally got a chance to eat here with my family. I have to say that we have been missing out on very delicious food! Bothe pulled pork sandwich along with the collard greens & green beans were delish.
We will definitely be back more frequently.

Haven’t gotten anything here I haven’t liked! Really love all their sandwiches and wraps. I love walking around the market and looking at all the produce/​ice cream/​candy/​etc. they have for sale. Really wish I lived closer so I could do some grocery shopping here!

The 5 stars come from pretty much the cornbread alone. YUM. So good. All the hot foods I’ve had were pretty tasty. The wings are grilled so you can feel a little less guilty treating yourself to some. ;)
They carry local produce but also some other assorted random items… gummies, fudge, etc. They also have ice cream from local dairies, which I’ll have to try out one day when they have a fruity flavor I like!

WHY don’t I live closer! I wish I could go here all the time. The deli is awesome with all kinds of sandwiches and the rotisserie chicken is soooo flavorful! They also have a crab pretzel that you bake at home which is to die for. They have different baked goods and they all looked good but I got the cranberry walnut bread loaf which was heavenly until my dog ate the rest :(I was almost in tears when I came home and my bread was gone. If you eat at the deli there is seating. Be prepared for it to be crowded on the weekends.

I really need to get here more often. Chicken Pot Pie-​10 stars, Strawberry Salad– 10 stars, their take on the Berger Cookie– 1 000 000 stars. They are fantastic. Never had anything I didn’t like. Keep up the good work!

Haven’t had anything here I really didn’t like. The hot foods bar is banging. So far I’ve had the ribs, which are tender and seasoned really well. I’m always skeptical of getting food like this that I used to love back home in the country, but Richardson’s Farm prepares some really good ribs. I’ve paired them with Brussel sprouts, which are really good – I think they use a little bacon to season them, and roasted red potatoes, which were really good.
I’ve also tried the wings and Mac n cheese. The Mac and cheese wasn’t the best, but everything else has been really good, so I’ll forgive them for it.
The rotisserie chicken is really good, fresh, and lasts quite a while. I usually go on Sunday’s, and I can eat off the chicken all week. They also have prepared greens in the refrigerated section that are also really good. The grocer is just amazing. I just only wish I lived a little closer. I’d be there two to three times a week.

Love this place! Local produce, friendly staff, fresh beef and poultry, and beautiful plants! I enjoy buying my groceries here when possible.
Also the home of the best lunch around. Hands down!

Who really looks for farms… maybe orchards when its picking season. This place rocks. The customer services is great along with the food market inside. I wish there were more variety in the vegetables that they have for sale.
What I like most is the food. Good chicken pot pie is hard to find and this place seems to hit it on the spot.
They also sell poultry and a wide variety of BBQ sauce =)

I’ve been here multiple times and each trip is pretty expensive! Not because they’re overpriced, but because of the sheer amount of high quality food that is generally too irresistible for me to pass up.
Most of the produce comes from their own farm (and very reasonably priced), but they also sell stuff from other small businesses in the area (notably Taharka Bros, Keyes Creamery, and Prigel Creamery… which are basically notable because these different ice creams are the first things I go for). There’s also baked goods, chicken, ready-​made stuff to go (I’ve only ever gotten the rotisserie chicken which is delicious but they also have sandwiches, soups, sides, wings, etc.), different jams and butters and spreads, fudge, plus a ton of other stuff. If you’re in need of some Fisher’s popcorn, you can get your fix here.
Got the crab pretzel tonight though and it was probably the best thing I’ve ever purchased here. It’s only $ 7.99 for a Baltimore restaurant quality crab pretzel, and it’s giant and delicious.
It’s not too close to where I live, but if you’re in the Northeastern Baltimore County area, it’s an awesome place to go, and often.

I wish I lived closer to this gem of a grocery store where most of the produce comes from their own farm! All the snacks and goodies are either organic or locally produced and they are seriously delicious.
I am not normally a person who eats chicken but there wings are so good, I can’t help myself and everyday they have 2 different flavors, I suggest you LIKE them on Facebook so you can find out what they have every day because they are all delicious!!!
And did I mention the prices of everything? So super affordable and back to the wings — 10 for $ 6 or 20 for $ 10 — what??? You just gotta check them out!

I’m proud to say this place is AWESOME!
I love the feel when you walk through Richardson Farm the people who work there are always friendly and eager to assist you.
I have been Richardson fan for many years and especially for the holidays it’s a must!

As I’m writing this review, I’m eating a gooey, warm, delicious banana nut muffin spread with butterscotch peanut butter… All made with fresh ingredients from this gem of a gourmet grocery store!
The place is packed to the brim with mouth-​watering local produce, jams, ice cream, candies, sauces, pastas, bread, meat, eggs, cheese… I could go on and on. A lot of the items are made in-​house by Richardson Farms, including peanut butter (try the butterscotch flavor), salad dressings (try the tomato and vidalia onion), freshly churned butter, and pickles. Surprisingly, the price point is cheaper than Whole Foods.
In the back of the store is a deli. To me, this is the highlight of Richardson Farms. The sandwiches and salads they make are some of the best I’ve had in the area. The Pretzel Dip is one of my favorites: a huge stack of ham, cheddar cheese, crispy onions, and house-​made tangy mustard on a pretzel roll. *Wipes drool off of chin* Every day they have different specials which they post online, so it’s worth checking often to see what’s being offered!
They have a little patio/​greenhouse area where you can sit at a table and chow down on the food you just got from the deli. Even on a chilly day, it’s warm enough in there for a nice leisurely meal.
I can’t wait to go back!
