Ed's is advertised as a typical American diner, but I'm not sure if an American would agree. At Ed's you can order your typical diner fair such as hamburgers (ranging from £5.75 to 6.95), hotdogs, an all day breakfast, salads, fries (with all the toppings) and a variety of calorific desserts.
When I first went I popped in for a quick bite and had the Chilli Cheese Fries (£4.50). They were good. The fries weren't soggy, the chilli was decent and the cheese was plentiful.
The second time I stepped in I had the Chicken BLT (£6.75) with Sweet Potato Fries (3.95). The BLT was filling and nice, if not a little sweet from the BBQ sauce they added. The fries were a little oily and soggy however.
I like Ed's because us Brits don't really have diners, so if you haven't had the good fortune of visiting the States then it's probably the closeset you'll come to an 'all American diner' experience. The ambience is good with little old fashioned looking jukeboxes on each counter or table, and a variety of condiments waiting for you. I like the fact you can adapt anything on the menu with your choice of additions such as grilled onions, eggs, guacamole, sour cream etc... (each for only £1). What I also like is that it's well designed and the prices are accurate for what you're getting. It's not Michelin starred stuff but you know that before you walk through the door.
Yep I'd pop in again. Actually I may do this weekend.
