Here you can grab a bacon / sausage roll with a coffee for next to nothing, there are only a few seats so maybe best to buy, grab & go, definitely one to add to your list of unusual places to eat.

There's a good amount of seating both inside and out and the coffee is well selected. Works by local artists are also on sale. If you visit to have a look at the nearby beach you should definitely stop in to either stock up for the onward journey or to relax a bit longer.

The cafe itself is going for a rundown 50s era American dinner look. To be honest, a bit cliché, but it is what it is. However, the reason we go to a restaurant is the food and to be honest, the food isn't all that great. Just look at my picture of the eggs Benedict. It tastes like it looks. But again, at least they offer it all day.

The salmon avocado toast was piled on high with both salmon and avocado. It was a bit messy for me to eat with the runny egg, but boy did it taste good. The full breakfast was amazingly filling. Service with a smile, both friendly and patient. Free wifi and no rush if you need to relax a bit. This cafe is excellent for those looking for a spot to grab breakfast on their way into city centre. Enjoy!

The red vinyl booth seating, shiny chrome, mini jukeboxes in each booth and thoroughly wholesome Americana vibe is done well. Unfortunately, I feel that it's more style than substance. The menu looked interesting but failed to excite, The waitress made it clear we were still in Scotland and did not transport us to the land of over enthusiasm and gushing service. Whilst there was nothing wrong with our food and it arrived piping hot it was a standard burger and chips. In an American Diner I expect perfectly crisp french fries not anaemic, limp chips that you know were pulled out of the freezer minutes before. The other sides were equally disappointing frozen onion rings and bought in coleslaw. I wanted to like Ed's Easy Diner. I wanted to it to be more than just a pretty face.
