What People Are Saying About Edison Cafe

In Short
Pink walls and a vaulted sky-blue ceiling overlaid with white art-nouveau designs lend glamour to the Edison Hotel's humbly anachronistic restaurant, which continues to draw hotel guests, Times Square tourists and midtown workers to its many-storied beige booths. Blueberry and banana-walnut pancakes stand out among the bountiful and well-prepared breakfast offerings, while borscht and matzo ball head the list of daily soups. Most welcome of all, the prices stay true to the restaurant's old-time character.

I often find myself with time to kill in Times Square, which is a shame since I don't love this area. But if I'm looking for a quick bite before going to a show, I almost always go to Cafe Edison. They have very quick service which is great when you don't have much time. The food is average: breakfast food, soups, salads, sandwiches, etc. It's the conversations that make this a fun place to be. I always find myself sitting next to someone in the theatre industry- interesting to hear ideas hashed out while having a quick bite to eat.
