  Eddie Rockets - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Eddie Rockets is a Republic of Ireland owned Fast Food franchise, with stores across Ireland, and in Gran Canaria and Liverpool - much the same locations as held by Dunnes Stores.
The restaurants are themed as 1950s diners, and serve almost as an antithesis on how to run a fast food chain; real crockery and cutlery is used, drinks are served in glassware, waiters are employed and food is brought to your seat.
They are very similar to Johnny Rockets in style and food.
