Ed's Cocktail Lounge

After spending another fun-filled Friday & Saturday at Ed's, I decided to share a little bit of the insanity with others.  As a "second home" resident of Twain Harte, I've been a part of the downtown scene for over 15 years.  The Twain Harte Inn (burned down) and Epperson House (owner retired/closed) each had a great run as the weekend hot spot for music, drinking and dancing.  For the last few years, Ed's has taken over that spot.  Hailed by many as the best in the west, Kim takes control of the bar on weekends.  Her fun-natured personality (and easy on the eyes) is what drives the upbeat atmosphere.  Whether you are asked to dance on the bar after she serves you a shot on your first visit, excel at her roudy dice games, or just join other patrons singing and dancing to their favorite rock classics, there's no better way to spend your weekend evenings.  Check out her signature Mai Tai's & Long Islands (there's a story behind them) as well as a few others that are her own special blends.  The action usually doesn't start until a little later, but if you are looking for good music, great drinks, friendly people, and a neighborly-feeling local bar, you are assured on having a great time at Ed's.

Always fun and full of surprises

Ed's is the type of place I love, loud music, mean muggin' locals, clampers, and strong cheap well drinks.
 Me and a few friends were visiting from a town that is similar to twain Harte and were stoked to find this place. The bar keep was awesome, kept the $3 whiskeys flowing and gave us the dirt on some of the locals who were there. The place got packed later on in the night and some of the local boys looked like they were waiting for us to step out of line but we were not there for trouble and they didn't try to start anything. The jukebox was bumpin some old hip hop, outlaw country, punk and metal. Don't expect vodka above stoli or gin better than sapphire, don't expect a well lit quiet cocktail lounge, do NOT f@$# with the locals and remember to tip well. Ed's I will be back!
