Inside Ed Debevic's retro diner in Chicago — neon signs, checkerboard floors, and servers in 1950s costume

Chicago's Retro Diner — Famous Since 1984

Ed Debevic's is Chicago's most famous retro-themed diner.

Quirky servers in flashy costumes serve up great burgers, jumbo wieners, cheese fries, huge salads, milkshakes, and ice cream sundaes with a side order of sass!

Don't expect this diner to be a "Please" and "Thank You" kind of place.

The servers pride themselves on snarky remarks and even drop their trays to do choreographed dance numbers on the soda counters!
