🥯 Perly's Delicatessen & Restaurant | Richmond's Iconic Jewish Deli

Tucked away in downtown Richmond, Perly’s isn't just a breakfast spot—it's a beloved, multi-generational institution that has been serving up heaping portions of Jewish comfort food and warm, retro charm since 1962. Think of it as Richmond's answer to the classic New York deli, where the bagels are chewy, the pastrami is stacked high, and the atmosphere feels like a hug from a favorite relative. ✨ The Perly's Experience: Step into a bustling, no-frills space filled with the nostalgic aroma of freshly baked bread and slow-cooked meats. The heart of the experience is their legendary breakfast and brunch, served daily until 3 PM. You'll find a mouthwatering spread of house-made bagels with lox and schmear, crispy latkes (potato pancakes), savory knishes, and decadent baked goods like cinnamon babka. For lunch, the menu transitions to a parade of "colossal sandwiches" that are as famous for their flavor as they are for their size. It's the kind of place where every bite tastes like tradition, and the friendly, vintage vibe makes you want to settle in and stay awhile. 📝 Short Social Media Caption: "Found the heart (and stomach) of Richmond at Perly's! 🥯✨ From perfect latkes to the most colossal pastrami sandwich, this iconic Jewish deli is a must-eat.
