The radial foil bearing includes: a top foil disposed facing a rotary shaft; an intermediate foil disposed outside of the top foil in the radial direction thereof; a back foil disposed outside of the intermediate foil in the radial direction; and a cylindrical bearing housing accommodating the top foil, the intermediate foil and the back foil. Engagement recesses are formed on both side surfaces of the bearing housing so as to be opposite to each other. The intermediate foil includes intermediate foil pieces disposed in the circumferential direction of the bearing housing. An engagement-projecting piece engaging with the engagement recess is formed in each intermediate foil piece.
