A great diner with leather seated booths that serves an amazing breakfast spread and classic American diner mains. Fried sticky chicken pictured. Lovely
Alejandra SolanaAugust 17, 2016Amazing diner! Mac&cheese, hot chilli dog, avocado toast, and if you are a gin type of person, try the "Root to Mule".... If you have time, you should book a day @ the Electric Cinema as well!!
Sasha FilimonovJuly 15, 2013Really great gluten-free choices (including the moules frites) -- plus the chef comes out to let you know it's 100% without gluten, always a great sign.
Just one week and they are already aspiring to be one of the best brunch places in London! Fine attention to quality and detail. Open toast is simply awesome - don't miss it.
Lily LiuJanuary 7, 2017I have to say that EVERYTHING here is perfect!! The food is awesome, thoughtful service, pretty&handsome stuff XD. Highly recommend the full British breakfast here.
- Bear ChainikomJune 12, 2015Always good. It's the perfect getaway from the hustle of the market. Outside of the street food, #ElectricDiner is the best for lunch or dinner on #Portobello.
Christiana MakariouFebruary 24, 2014one of my favourite places to go in london! classic and with style. maybe the interior is a bit dark but the milkshakes never disappoint! try the steak sandwich or the cheeseburger with bacon!
Martin JonassonJune 22, 2016Great atmosphere and diner feeling with a bit of the old. Go for a breakfast with some Egg Benedict and some great, homemade green apple juice...and enjoy!
Levent AkgermanFebruary 5, 2017Breakfast to late night dining, this spot encompasses great taste all-around blended with practicality and good service. My favorite is Double cheeseburger with garlic fries.
YOUhomeNovember 18, 2014Whether you're looking for waffles, fruit or a full breakfast, this is the spot for you! Such a wide choice of breakfast foods means there's something for almost everyone!
All the food is good but the burgers are a well kept London secret. Go double with bacon. Bar has best beer selection on an otherwise dull portobello. Cocktails good too.
Two Boots and a FarwaAugust 12, 2017Breakfast here is nice (nothing amazing but decent). It's also good for a break on portobello market days, the seats outside are great for people watching.
Bijan YoungJanuary 18, 2015Always rammed. One of the best burgers and fries in London. Good service inspire of the crowds. Great cocktails. Even better if going to the movies.
Petya RaykovskaJanuary 24, 2016Exceptional chili avocado on toast with poached egg breakfast. Noms! The hash browns were epic. Worth the wait.
Jenna AndersonSeptember 21, 2014The brunch at electric diner is excellent!!! Reservations in the evening are harder to come by, but don't let that fool you about the quality of the breakfast!
Stavria K.September 29, 2014OMG this sunday brunch!!! Eggs benedict with all the extras (avocado, mushrooms, spinach) will make you feel ao full that all day you are not gonna eat anything else.
Chris McLellanOctober 26, 2014The food here is great and there is an awesome selection of beers and cocktails. Our main course was a minute late and our waiter seemed like he was devastated about it. Great service!
Mihnea MiculescuJuly 25, 2016Great vibe, good food, right next to one of the nicest cinemas in London. The burgers and the eggs benedict are worth it.
Bugra CelikDecember 8, 2013Nice place for breakfast. tea is served in pot, english breakfast plate is large enough and toast is delicious.
Brij SinghFebruary 17, 2018Loved the full English Breakfast. Some of the best thick-cut bacon I’ve ever had!- Ameer SalehFebruary 27, 2015My favorite burger in London. Otherwise, the honey chicken wings and the avocado on toast with poached egg and chili are delicious too.
- Philip ScottDecember 8, 2013Superb burgers and the best Virgin/Bloody Mary's anywhere. Always a great atmosphere and sitting at the counter is a great way to watch the chefs work.
Will ClarkJanuary 31, 2016The single cheeseburger is the best burger in London by a country mile! With fries and a beer, there's not much better you can get.
Ethan TurkeltaubSeptember 17, 2016Full English breakfast can't be missed. Caloric intake for the month, sorted.
Alex KFebruary 20, 2013Very good brunch, go there around 2pm to be on the waiting list, walk around at Portobello market and come back when they call you back (around 4pm..)
MashaJanuary 6, 2013Lovely brunch dishes! Fantastic Bloody Mary! Eggs Benedict no longer served, but try the scrambled with smoked salmon or the open-face ham and cheese. Yum!!
Sofi HersherOctober 6, 2015Loved the diner hot dog and black bean tacos. The Bloody Mary is worth it.
Ilgar AlievJanuary 29, 2016Awesome honey roast chicken with sweet chili ginger and sesame seeds, friendly staff
AlpSeptember 24, 2019Double cheeseburger, which is actually a triple burger, is perfect! Add some avocados and bacon to it = perfection 👌🏽
It's a toss up between the truly amazing burger for lunch or dinner & for breakfast the Full English or Eggs Benedict. Whatever you go for you'll love it plus it's a great place to hang out...
Giorgi MerebashviliDecember 20, 2014Burger is amazing, and simple macaroni with cheese is so delicious
James DessinJanuary 17, 2015Simply amazing!!!! Really the best food I've had in London so far. The staff here is just the best too.
Amit SharmaApril 6, 2012Great eggs for bfast, love the chips, and the oysters are also great... Gets full up on wknds so always a good idea to make a ressie...
Corinna PAugust 11, 2014Very important to note when ordering the "single" cheeseburger it is actually a double. And when ordering the "double" you will receive a triple.
Joanna GlinkowskaSeptember 27, 2013Check out meals with eggs, they are delicious and the price is reasonable. After lunch go to Electric cinema, which is next door!
C FWOctober 16, 2013Go for the location, standards behind the bar & in the kitchen has slipped. Our water tasted as though it had perfume sprayed near it, and the fruit plate tasted of onions.
My friend and I were hungry so ordered a double cheeseburger. The waitress told us that the double actually had three patties and the single had two. This wasn't true and we were given single patties.
FranckJanuary 29, 2016Great diner but very busy at times. Burgers and pancakes should not be missed.
Lydia BerkennouJanuary 27, 2015Fantastic for food at anytime of the day, but the breakfast is particularly amazing.
A JFebruary 26, 2014SIZE WARNING: If you order "Large Fries" be prepared to receive enough food to feed a small South American country... and all their neighbours🙈
Cheeseburger with thick cut peppered bacon and a fried egg is a serious win.
Best burger, fries and hotdog in town! Do not forget to check out the cinema before leaving
Ed YarntonSeptember 23, 2014Great place for an American diner style dinner and brunch with a stylish atmosphere.
Mechi VazquezJune 24, 2016Go for the Cheeseburger! The single one has double meat ;) and as a side: fries!
