Edison's Ale House

Had couple of beers and fish and chips. Definitely pub food, but good. Service was excellent. The waitress was personable, funny and straight shooter. The hostess and manager were extremely friendly. They even changed the tv to the channel we requested (go Kincks). Will go back. Live music and a overall welcoming atmosphere

Decent place to get a quick bite when getting off the train

Typical bar food. Had the club, and it was good.

I have not eaten at Edison's or had a drink there. The only reason I looked it up on google maps was I just finished a great book, "The Tender Bar" and I believe this is where the bar that is the subject of the book used to be. Back then (the 70's to the 90's) it was named Dickens then changed into Publicans. (It may have had more incarnations, he writes of the bar as if it were a person, before becoming Edison's Ale House.) Although I can't review Edison's food or service I can highly recommend the book, a memoir by J.R. Moehringer. I liked the book so much I'm actually reading it again. So for history and all the stories and enduring all these years I'll give it five stars!

I would have to agree with other here on this review. Potato with Leeks soup was offered today as was a grilled cheese with tomatoes and bacon sandwich. The sandwich was 10 bucks which I ordered anyway.. along with a cup of soup.
My neighbor also ordered the grilled cheese, and when everything was brought to our table I was completely forgotten. Rather than wait around for a grilled cheese I said just cancel everything else i ordered. We were basically ignored the entire time we were there even though there was only one other table. These were just my complaints others at the table had their own but I will let them write their reviews.
