Great place for eavesdropping
4 Star Rating: Recommended

05/07/2003 Posted by minstrelette

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.

Pros: good eavesdropping, quick service
