After spending another fun-filled Friday & Saturday at Ed's, I decided to share a little bit of the insanity with others. Â As a "second home" resident of Twain Harte, I've been a part of the downtown scene for over 15 years. Â 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. Â For the last few years, Ed's has taken over that spot. Â Hailed by many as the best in the west, Kim takes control of the bar on weekends. Â Her fun-natured personality (and easy on the eyes) is what drives the upbeat atmosphere. Â 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. Â 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. Â 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.
Review Source: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!
I am a small town girl at heart who moved to Orange County and this place was in some ways a refreshing break from the superficial world I deal with daily. The bar tender Kim was hillarious and friendly, the other patrons all had a story to tell, over all the experience was interesting...in a good way. We were able to walk to the bar from our cabin which was a nice perk. The music was blaring and everyone (including the local PD who stopped in) seemed to be having a great time!
They have boxed wine, peanuts and vulgar wall decor all of which didn't bother me. I wasn't expecting some classy place in the middle of the country. You have to take it all in for what it is. Cheap drinks, Journey on the Jukebox and locals with some funny things to say!
I will be in Twain Heart again this summer and can't wait to go back.
WOW, where do I start?
My hubby brought me & my friend here the other night for a pre fourth of July celebration. We walked in & knew we were "not in Kansas anymore"...lol
It was full of smoking locals. We ordered Kamikaze's and to our surprise, the bar does not supply enough high ball glasses for our drinks. The bartender asked a group of ppl that were sitting behind us if they were done with there glasses b/c she needed them for our drinks! YUCK!!!!! They gave her the glasses and she "washed" them..
OMG, I can't believe I drank out of that glass...Makes me sick to think about it...UGH
The topper of the evening....ready??? OK, this local gal was choosing music & was shoving a beer bottle up her A$$!!! HOLY CRAP!!!
Sorry Ed's... your not for me....
I love this place every time we visit twain the first night we go out we normally start at the casino or the emryhouse but always end up at eds by the end of the night...Kim is the best bartender ever..she keeps everybody in check and if things get out of hand you better believe she will be standing on that bar yelling shut!! up!! next go's the music and it doesn't go back on until she gets what she wants...lol a real character..but no mater what she makes damn sure that everybody has a full drink and a good time..put it this way the first time I went to eds within 10 min me my girlfriend and about 6 of are friends were on the bar downing shoots and singing along to are favorite song...il never forget that night...if you are anywhere near twain hart you must stop by ed's but I suggest getting there after 10:00pm that's when the party really starts...
Review Source:Another TH trip with my friends in the books this summer and  Ed's Cocktail lounge did not disappoint.
Things that I saw, heard  and experienced during my last trip:
Kim retaining her title as The Best Bartender in the World. Thanks for the jager bombs and Strong Islands
Persian face sitting
Old Crow Bourbon
Mute amateur stripper dancing on the bar
Candy Coated Rain Drops on the jukebox
Arm biting
"you can't have a taser because you have a record"
Team Hot Carl dominating the porno matching game
Roller Derby Girls
Icon introduced the Protege
On a personal note though - RIP Skip
Ed's...hmmm....honestly this is the most difficult place to review. Â First off, you can't judge a book by it's cover. Â Just because it's a little rough around the edges doesn't mean that once you walk through the doors you're not going to have a good time. Â I have had some fun nights there. Â It's always a great time when the place is packed and girls are on the bar. Â Good ol' Ed's.
