Big Ed's Main Street Soda Grill

Spent a day in Vermillion exploring. Gorgeous lakeside town. The burgers at Big Ed's were great, as were the rings and fries. Topped off with a handmade vanilla shake. Staff is fun, happy, glad to be there.

What an amazing place. This is truly Heaven by the lake. The nostalgia of all the classic items throughout the restaurant and the service was outstanding. Best service we have had in a long time. They are a 10/10. Don’t pass this place up. Because of the service we will be back and the food is the bonus. It was so delicious and filling. I can’t put it in words that are worthy enough for how good it was. Don’t walk but run here for multiple meals. I can’t wait to go back again. Love it!!!

Highly recommend this Sofa Grill, not only was the food delicious and the service was perfect, but it was so much fun to dine in and listen to old music (70s) and enjoy the memorabilia. The milkshakes are SO good! Honestly, an appetizer and the milkshake would have been enough, because the milkshake is so filling, but that’ll be for next time.

Wow this place has it All! We stumbled upon this gem of an eatery on 4th of July while we were out on the bike. Stopped in vermilion to check out the water and sites and spotted this place right away. The ambiance was amazing a soda shop with tons of memorabilia. Everyone employed here was smiling, nice, and attentive. Even the young man washing the dishes greeted us when we walked in Kendall was our server and she was amazing! She was sweet and had an infectious smile. We ordered burgers and fries and I can't go on enough about how good they were. And hot! I don't think I've had food come out so quickly and be that hot. I also had a chocolate malt and it was delicious. The prices were very good under $30 B4 tip. This is definitely a must stop place if you visit Vermilion!.

Great place and really good ice cream and service! First visit and I bet this place is well respected in the community!
