First thing you'll notice is the neighborhood is pretty beat up, it's within the heart of the East side. But don't let that discourage you from coming. If you love your city as much as I do, you have to love every bit of vancity it has to offer you!
I got the avocado toast with a poached egg. It's simple, fresh, delicious, and on price point for the community. It's now my favorite. I also had a few bites of the pancetta and egg gluten free butter milk biscuit. It has a nice tiny heat of the Chipotle and the sweetness of the tomato jam. Absolutely delicious, the jam is made in house.
The decor is lovely and inviting. Music is bumpin with a open concept kitchen. I would definitely come back again. Prices are so reasonable. This is real food, back to basics. Free parking all around, it's a great start to the day on your way to work.
Fleetwood Mac tracks are rolling on a sunny weekday morning in Strathcona and I'm musing that Vancouver never felt so good. We're enjoying breakfast at Ed's Daily, which just opened in May. But it feels like this charming, hipster diner been dozing like a sleeping beauty in this neighbourhood for decades.Ed's - Stop 27 in our weekly Search for Vancouver's Best Coffee - is one of those elusive places we've wanted to visit. It hasn't been easy with their Monday to Friday operating hours, but well worth the time.Across the street, it's welfare Wednesday and there's a long lineup to a shelter.But with recent development in Strathcona, you know that this area is undergoing a massive transformation and will look completely different in a decade.
Ed’s Daily is a neighbourhood café and commissary serving grab and go breakfasts and hot lunches in the Strathcona area. I came to know Ed’s Daily last month when I attended the media preview of the “Meet the Makers” expo. Family is at the heart of Ed’s Daily as it is named after two Eds, who are the paternal grand-fathers of the owners. The site of Ed’s Daily has quite an interesting past including once being a hotel and pool parlor. The location had been derelict for years, but is now renovated to accommodate both a 24-seat café and 3,500 square-foot commissary kitchen. The commissary kitchen is part of Ed’s Daily’s commitment towards building community by renting out kitchen space to local food trucks and small businesses.
