I try to eat here every time I come to London.
Great location right on Old Compton in SOHO near all the bars and open until midnight on weekends, wish they would stay open a little later on weekends.
Fun diner type atmosphere. Food is great. I love their adult milkshakes with Baileys
Very friendly and fun staff. -

Old school American style diner that serves some decent food. I got the burger and fries which hit the spot. I like the decor.

I very much enjoyed my coney with cheese added. Super tasty and giant portion. I got the cheese sauce, which I really liked. Maybe it's just a nod to the cheese sauce I grew up eating; it was delicious and gooey.
Ed's does several hilarious American things that I found to be really endearing. Like diner-style coffee. In the US, you won't find mid-grade restaurants or diners with fancy espresso machines. So the bottomless diner coffee was adorable and so fun. Same thing with bottomless sodas, and I liked that Ed's had fountain soda!
Overall, the food was good for diner style food. They aren't trying to be a gourmet burger place, and I think they pulled off the over-the-top Americanisms well. -

Against my better judgement I let my friend talk me into eating here. To my defence it was one of those sad, raining, dreary and cold London days and everywhere else nearby was FULL. We grabbed a stool around the bar and I ordered the Smoky Joe's, chilli cheese fries and one of their famous root beer ice cream floats. My friend had the Ed's fried chicken burger with onion rings and a Pepsi max cherry ice cream float.
The fries were terrible. The cheese was plastic-like. All ingredients seemed to be of very poor quality which for the price is unacceptable. Really cannot believe any American would enjoy this place or think the food is good or real 'American diner style'.
Save your money and go anywhere else would be my advice. -

These diners are pure tourist-bait, on par with M'n'M World and this one is particularly small with only seats at the counter. That being said...
Go here and buy a milkshake!
Like Rachel J, I am quite partial to the peanut butter shakes (although not quite as great as the Reece's shake at FatBurger or the PB&Choc shake at Pot Belly) but on my latest visit I deviated from the plan and ordered their new shake.
A BISCOFF SHAKE!
Made with malted milk biscuits, ice cream, and Biscoff spread. OH. MY. DAYS!
Get there. Get there now, you won't be disappointed.
