Emma Iceland launch Ed’s Easy Diner range
You can’t say that we haven’t got eclectic tastes. One day posting about a Vienesse breakfast the next, microwave burgers. Ed’s Easy Diner range recently launched in Iceland and Food Warehouse, so we thought we try them out for a quick and simple lunch.
I loved visiting Ed’s Easy Diner in Soho, the neon, the milkshakes – lots of happy memories. But then it all went sour when the original owner died and number crunchers led the way.
There seems to be just 11 Ed’s Easy Diners around in the UK now. So to get a fix, you’ll have to either travel or buy something from this new range.

Review
We picked the double decker burger and the mac ‘n cheese burger with bacon. We don’t have a microwave so we cooked these in the oven and toasted the buns.
This is what the official blurb says.
Ed’s Diner Microwavable Double Decker Burger with Burger Sauce £1.75
A double sliced white bread bun topped with sesame seeds stacked with two cooked beef and chicken burgers and a slice of processed cheese with a sachet of burger sauce.
Ed’s Diner Microwavable Mac ‘N’ Cheese Burger with Bacon £2.50
A bar marked white bread bun with a cooked beef and chicken quarter pounder burger, cooked smoke flavour bacon rashers and a sachet of macaroni cheese topping.
Now look at all of the bacon for the mac and cheese burger.
The buns were easy to cook and put together. However the mac and cheese was tepid as this is heated by submersing in hot water.
The bread bun on this meal broke up easily and wasn’t appetising at all. The bars marks on the roll made it plastic tasting.
The best bit about the double decker was the burger sauce! Lots of gherkin flavour here. The buns here held up better to toasting.
Verdict
😑 it’s a cheap burger taste, that is overpriced and nothing like Ed’s Easy Diner food at all. Just buy Rustlers and forget about these.
