Famous for its hearty country-style breakfasts, Big Ed's has an exuberantly decorated dining room festooned with artifacts of Southern farm culture, from antique plows to vintage tobacco tins. Start your breakfast with thick pancakes with… Read Full Editorial

My Review by danielr256484245 via Citysearch on 3/16/2013

I was there yesterday afternoon aroound 2. The waitress i had was unbeliveable very freindly woman! My food was great, My complaint is with the person running this buisness. I overheard a man yelling at my waitress using all kinds of…

This place was awesome. We stopped by yodacroz via Citysearch on 5/25/2012

This place was awesome. We stopped there for our lunch break while visiting the Marbles Museum. The waitress gave my 3 year old daughter FREE applesauce as an appetizer AND gave her TWO free refills. The biscuits were great, as was the…

Best food, best service by vabchgrl via Citysearch on 3/19/2012

All the food was delicious and tasted like homemade. My scrambled eggs were actually two eggs that were stirred and then cooked instead of the yellow (came from a carton)egg mixture. Something as simple as a good cup of coffee goes a long…

Unbelievable by No Tolerance via Citysearch on 3/14/2012

What an experience. TELL THeM TO HOLD THE ATTITUDE and LEAVE OUT THE HAIR!!!! Some friends and I were visiting from Atlanta and stop in for something good before we got our day started. When we finished our mbeal and were packing up our…

Very Good Pancakes by dwe1978 via Citysearch on 2/25/2012

I ordered two pancakes. The waitress warned me that they were big and that I should consider having just one. I told her I love pancakes. She was definitely correct. These pancakes were HUGE. And delicious. There didn't appear to be a kids…

Best Breakfast I have had in a Restaurant by new granny via Citysearch on 3/18/2011

Very Good Breakfast!! We are from Fla and thought we would try and find some where to go to breakfast that is not a chain restaurant. Not Knowing the area we searched the web and found Big Ed's, which had such great reviews and sounded…

Best breakfast in Raleigh!! by BeesNeedSonshine via Citysearch on 6/30/2010

I live in Raleigh and have been going to Big Ed's for years! It was my Grandfather's favorite place to eat and he was a good judge of southern food to include fatback and red eye gravy! We go to eat breakfast there frequently. We fell…

Much better than I could imagine by LBlount via Citysearch on 6/14/2010

A co-worker told me about Big Ed's two years ago. My husband loves home-cooked food so I decided to take him to Raleigh to try out Big Ed's for his birthday. IT WAS WELL WORTH THE TRIP!!!. We got there right before they closed but the…

Best Breakfast Place on The Planet Earth by Doctor of Madness via Citysearch on 6/1/2010

Large portions, high quality food, friendly and competent service, and lots of stuff to distract you. I have never been anywhere like it and there's nowhere I would rather be. Before I moved to Raleigh, I visited 3 or 4 times per year and…

So Southern it's Foreign by raccoonlover via Citysearch on 5/11/2010

This is a cute little place that has a lot to offer. Although I live in Raleigh, I am not a southener. And saying that, there are things on the menu that I don't know what they are. The store has lots of space and is usually pretty…

Awesome food & Service by 845145739 via Citysearch on 4/29/2009

I've had fried oysters at numerous seafood places and was a bit skeptical at 1st. I typically think of Big Eds as just country cooking but I have to say these were the absolute best oysters I've had anywhere! They were lightly breaded and…

Restuarant by Joseph B via Insider Pages on 2/18/2009

Southern cooking at its finest! My first trip was an adventure - not just because of the food, but to soak in the culture! The food is good (not necessarily good FOR you!) and the service is good. My favorite is to come on a Saturday…

A good country breakfast in downtown Raleigh. by Phil F via Insider Pages on 2/12/2009

The seating is tight, but you don't mind because it means you can get a seat quicker. The food is just down-home. The wait staff is friendly and responsive even in the tight spaces. The Saturday morning we were there, there was a band…

Good Country eating by Denise S via Insider Pages on 2/5/2009

Bid Ed's is some good Country eating. They have it all, but be carefully if you go on weekends. There will be a line for this southern cooking. It makes me feel like I am eating with my grandparents again.

Old-Fashioned Food by Sarah P via Insider Pages on 2/4/2009

If you are looking for country cooking and service where the waitress will call you 'Hon', then you have got to head to Big Ed's. But be warned, if you go on a weekend, check the hours and be prepared to wait in line. This is a local…

Best country breakfast in town by pippyrox via Citysearch on 2/3/2008

Breakfast at Big Ed's will make you want to cartwheel, it's so good! Hands down best country breakfast around. We arrived around 10am on a Saturday morning and parking was not really an issue, just a block walk. Fantastic live music out…

Country breakfast by Amanda S. via Judy's Book on 2/14/2007

My closest thing to a country breakfast being Cracker Barrel, I didn't know what to expect at Big Ed's. We went on a Monday, so it wasn't very crowded, which is good because I didn't want to have to deal with smokiness inside. We got a…

Big Eds by emily p. via Judy's Book on 10/31/2006

To me, Big ed's in the ultimate southern breakfast place. the food here is absoutly fantastic, made to order, and done in typical southern fashion. The resturant is typically a breakfast hangout, and is also open for lunch. last time i…

Good country food! by maxinebaby via Citysearch on 8/3/2006

I like Bid Ed's, whether it's breakfast or lunch. They've got good country food. A little pricey though.
