I can’t remember but wondering… Good Friday isn’t a regular Mass or is it???( with the Eucharist)

Not a Mass.
Its the liturgy of the Lord’s Passion
In short, it includes the Liturgy of the Word with a homily, followed by solemn general intercession, the veneration of the cross, and distribution of Communion.

Good Friday and Holy Saturday (excluding the Easter Vigil, which is technically Easter Sunday at that point) are the two days in the Church year which Masses aren’t offered, thus on both days, the altar is stripped of its linen and no decorations whatsoever.

The Eucharist distributed as Holy Communion on the last part of the Good Friday Liturgy comes from the consecrated Hosts from the Mass of the Lord’s Supper on the previous evening.

Thank you!
