Ed's Easy Diner (Soho)

My family and I had a great meal here - the burgers were excellent and tasty and the milkshakes were divine!!! The staff were excellent and very attentive!! The only downside is that the restaurant is tiny. My children really enjoyed their meals and the size of the sundae my daughter had was huge!!! It was a really enjoyable experience and would try Ed's again.

AVOID AT ALL COST!!!

Overpriced, tasteless, McDonald's quality food and rude staff. The worst eating experience I've ever had.

Went to Ed's in Soho and found it to be one of the worst dining experiences of my life. Un cooperative and rude staff now mean I will never visit this establishment again. Truly awful.

I used to LOVE ed's diner. absolutely adored it. i used to rave about the massive burgers, generous sized portions of chips and incredible unlike any other milkshakes. then ed's diner had to ruin it. our meat-and carbs/customer-face-stuffing relationship ended abruptly last night when my friends and I were treated in the most shockingly horrific manner by the manager, of all people. she was rude, unwelcoming and unenthusiastic. ok, so we were slightly tipsy and a little rowdy but not enough to provoke such a vicious attack. you would have thought.

I went along on Saturday night with my 11yr old daughter and we had a fantastic time. The music was great, and we had great fun picking the songs. All of the staff had a fantastic attitude which was fast, attentive and full of upbeat enthusiasm. Even the cooks were singing along to the music. There was a real mix of diners which added to the atmosphere. We will return next time we pop down to see a film at Leicester Square.

Love Ed's Burger. I've always had the big bubba with chilli cheese fries and never been dissapointed. Plus the milkshakes are the best I have ever had. All that mixed with the 20p juke boxes makes it a great place to go.

Went there last weekend and was absolutely appauled with the service. Food is average and extremely overpriced. It's a diner, you sit at the counter and the waitress takes food from behind her and puts it in front of you and still they saw fit to charge us 12% service charge without our consent. There were 6 of us there and we spent the best part of £70 on dinner, drinks etc, one of the waitresses saw us question the exorbitant service charge and told us that we could leave it but we did leave a generous tip anyway considering the "service".

The manager then felt fit to shout across the whole restaurant "Are you not paying the service charge?" and when we explained what the waitress said he threw the tip we did leave on the table and shouted "we dont want it, its one thing to be rude....but you're sitting there for over an hour". I was absolutely shocked at the service, the absolute disgraceful behaviour of this man is unbelievable and none of us will be returning again.

Went here on a friday night and although the atmosphere was buzzing and we loved the retro american feel (complete with juke boxes), all in all we felt it was quite overpriced and wasn't really the tastiest. For some reason as well the waiters were insistent we didn't sit outside despite the bouncer allowing us to sit there and giving us all menus. If your looking for really great food then this isn't the place but if your looking for a fun, lively (if slightly overpriced) place to go with friends then this will be fine...and the milkshakes are very nice.

Sorry but nothing good to say about this restaurant. My friend and I went in and we were given two seats at the restaurant counter. When I asked the manager if we could sit at the window as there were empty seats she refused saying that that was saved for 4 people. I was in there for more than half an hour and the window seat was never occupied.

Will not return - rude staff and the food wasnt fresh!

Love Ed's Diner and would probably agree with the earlier poster that they do the best burgers in London, although it's a close call from Eagle Bar Diner.

Very relaxed way to get some unhealthy yet delicious food down you whilst in the West End with limited time. Always take the time out to visit when I have some time off in the week. The 20p in the jukebox is worth it for a bit of Billy Ocean too!
