I'm in love with this bar. The quaint vintage decor mixed with the casual atmosphere really just puts me in a great mood for the night. Of course the patio is amazing and I always enjoy sitting next to the cute fountain to look for fish. There aren't enough nice things to say about Edison's, most of which have already been said. If I lived in Tremont, this would be where I would hide away every weekend. Pizza, guys...they have it and it rocks! I am all about this wonderful food and the fact that this bar carries a delicious pie is one of the many reasons I can't stop coming here. Not to mention I dabble in some pool every once in awhile. Edison's really has everything I could ever want in a bar. read more

I love going to Edison's! This place is the epitome of "neighborhood bar" (+1 Will S.) and has a great beer selection to boot. All-wood bar, definitely an old-fashioned feel. The crowd is always very friendly, neighbors and the like. Dogs and cats of patrons are welcome to visit the bar. Bartenders are attentive and knowledgeable. DJ spins tunes on certain nights (I'll edit when I remember which night that was). Pool table and patio in the back. Popcorn as a snack food, but I'd say go for the Pizza either in-house or next door. Huge selection of specialty beers in bottle, and generally some good selections on tap. Definitely show Edison's some love when you're in the area. I hope to make it out there more and more. P.S. To you GLBC fans, I saw a couple hidden bottles of Christmas Ale in their cooler last week. read more

Hands down best pizza in Cleveland! Get a whole pie and not just a slice, you won't be disappointed! Small bar atmosphere with a great rotation of beers. read more

I've only been there on weekday nights: Definitely has the neighborhood bar feel and it is cozy. More laid-back and quiet than Southside. There's hipsters, suits, of all ages, and people wearing jeans and a hoodie aren't stared down. I've encountered a drunk once or twice. I'm a big fan of the decor. Dark, old-fashioned wooden bar with stools, and random memorabilia on the walls. They're also pet friendly and let customers bring their dogs on leashes. Free (although stale) popcorn. Old pool table. Their patio looks really cute with trellises and ivy but I haven't had the chance to sit out there. Beer Selection: Excellent. About 5 taps, but the bar's walls are lined with all of their bottled selections. Dozens. I need to count next time I go there. Prices are reasonable for Tremont. $4-5 for a 16oz Microbrew. Service at the bar is excellent and the bartenders were knowledgeable about their selection. A great place for meeting up with a couple friends to chat and have a few pints or even go on a date. I really should catch one the live music there once or twice a month. read more

Pizza by the slice. That is why I give it 4 stars. Pizza makers not too friendly, but I'll take that in turn for doing me the favor of loading my pie with parm cheese for me. Bar is okay. Maybe it's just not my scene or don't have a lot of friends here. I always feel like I'm walking down the runway when I'm going to the back patio. Uncomfortable weird layout of their old booths. Also, people are always bringing their dogs and losing them. Then walking around yelling their dog's name. Or their dog is sitting on the bar stool that should be mine. They usually have some really salty and usually old popcorn in the machine, which is good to munch on. For you, or your dog, I suppose. read more

Cheap drinks and awesome pizza. Local favorite in the Cleveland Tremont area. It's a dive bar with a pool table and outside patio area. I come here often with friends to grab some drinks and it's a great place to just hang out. Sometimes they'll have someone come in to play live as well. Not a good idea to bring a date here for dinner but if you're planning to just get some drinks, good place to go if you don't want to stretch your pockets. read more

Great neighborhood place! Has bands, but the last time I was there the band got lost. Nice people. No trash. read more

Good dive bar to hang with friends. Free popcorn pizza is good but not a huge fan of the pepperoni as it can be a bit greasy

Been a while since I been in a dive bar. Cool little spot. We got there around 8 on a Thursday. Got 2 beers. Asked how to order pizza. It's up the stairs to the left. Got a ticket with a time to come back. Garlic bread, hot spinach and bacon pizza and slice of pepperoni. All was very good. Lots of craft cans and bottles and about 8 drafts. Decent music. Trivia night on Thursday. Had I ubered I would have stayed and had a nice night. Driving I just had a left hand stout. I'll be back. read more

This would be 5 stars but the seating is really uncomfortable. Everything else it great. This is truly a hole in the wall with pizza that makes me smile. Order and wait for the Bacon Spinach pizza or grab a slice of pepperoni at the window. Edison's somehow cooks the pepperonis perfectly into the crispy little pep bowls. read more

Edison's doesn't wear fancy pants. When you walk in, you get a dive bar type vibe. It's laid back, and people are just having a good time. The beer selection is quite fantastic too- they've got a ton of different brews for any mood. Whatever tickles your fancy, they probably have it. On weekends, they have live entertainment. Live bands will come in and do their thing, which is a major perk of hanging out here. In the back, there's a pool table, popcorn machine, and a patio. There's a lil' somthing for everybody! And, last but not least, my most favorite thing about Edison's: The PIZZA. It's not any fancy classic italian pizza, but just what you need after a night of being out and having too many drinks. It's perfection in all its greasy glory. You can get a cheese or pepperoni pizza slice at the window inside the bar, or you can go to the other side and order it in the pizza kitchen. Their whole pizzas are pretty bomb-diggity too. Lots of toppings so you're not being skimped out on anything. It is a little bit pricier than any other pizza joint but you will get your money's worth here. Another genius thing: they brush honey on the crust and dust it with parmesan cheese. AMAZING. BRAVO. Need I say more? read more

Edison's has stools. My dog likes to sit on stools. My dog likes to sit on stools at Edison's. This is going to be a dog-centric review. There are plenty of good things to say about Edison's but I'm sure they've been hit on already. Anyway...Edison's is like Vegas for dogs. Not only are they welcome, but there's an awesome patio, friendly petting people, and so many little pieces of popcorn on the floor to eat! How much fun is that?! There aren't a ton of dog-friendly pubs, where I can bring my pub-friendly dog, but Edison's is my favorite. They discourage pets on busy weekend nights for their own safety, but generally you'll find a Chihuahua, a bulldog, a Boston, or maybe even my dog there. 5 stars for letting Zukey eat as much popcorn as he possibly can. Plus, there are enough dog people there that he usually ends up with a "cookie" from someone too. read more

Decent tap list, amazing bottled craft list. They dont have a kitchen, but are attached to the pizza place next door, which I didnt try. They do have a 'serve yourself' popcorn machine which is awesome. And smart. Eat popcorn, want more beer. I like the atmosphere in this place, real chill and divey. read more

The bar is reminiscent of Cheers -- and for good reason -- it opened when that was still fashionable. Dark wood and low light are far from modern. Edison's is not trendy. It's a fixture and it's a fixture for good reason. The pizza is excellent and the beer is cheap and unpretentious. It's everything you hoped a bar would be when you were younger and there's still nothing wrong with that formula today. I usually call ahead even when I'm going to eat there as it is not uncommon to have a one hour wait for pizza. It's well worth the wait. read more

I had another positive experience on the patio Saturday night. There were a lot of little spiders dropping down from the arbor, but you will have that in nature. Surprisingly, there were also a bunch of drunk hambones popping out of the woodwork too. However, there weren't any dirty hippies smoking a bowl on the patio, so you win some, you lose some. The reson of 4/5 stars? I still want cider on tap. I dropped my full bottle of Original Sin in the bathroom. That made me feel like a total jerk, but hardly Edison's fault. If anything I was having too much fun (if you know what I mean) prompting me to be a little tipsy (literally) and drop my drink. They overcharged me by 2 beers but were awesome about taking them off my bill!!! Great service on Saturday. read more

Edison's is a fun place to meet with friends and grab a slice of great, local pizza. The beer selection is ok, though they always (ALWAYS) sell out of every type of hard cider on Thursday nights. There are plenty of places to sit and chill, and the trivia is pretty fun if you can catch it. (The room fills up fast.) Some of the patrons, though... Maybe it's the townies. Maybe I have a bad face. Maybe I walk in with my work clothes and I've put too much effort into my wardrobe. But I always get serious stink-eye from people here. I walk in--glare. I order a beer--glare. Something has crawled into the beer and died for some of the bar-goers, and it makes for a somewhat uncomfortable experience. read more

The best reasons to go here are Hovaround Djing and John Berry slinging drinks.. Other times its a bunch of randoms and doesnt have the neighborhood-y feel it once had. read more

Edison's Pub - John muthafuckin berry!! - Pubs Near Me - Cleveland, Ohio

Interesting music playing...enjoyable...not typical satellite radio. Great beer selection. Very down to earth atmosphere with cool sort of museum that you pass on your way to the restrooms downstairs. A little more blue-collar type place, which I happen to enjoy. Good pep pizza too:) read more

See all

The. Place. To. Be. On. The. South. Side. Good deli next door. What was it called again? The Next Door Deli? Great patio with soothing electric waterfall, whenever it's not frozen solid. An especially great place to go when the weather is shitty, you soon find out who really has the soul for drinking in Cleveland. Go there. Drink. Smell the history. Feel at home, be at ease, join the convo. Leave knowing that you just experienced something that nobody else can ever know or take away from you., and spend the rest of your days trying to remember just what that was exactly..... read more

Beer: Unusual variety. Always new and different bottles in the cooler. Food: The pizza in the back room is amazing, but pricey. Crowd: Typical trendy tremont folks, which is much better than the west 9th broskies. Bartenders: The one wavy/curly haired girl was very personable and working her butt off to do both tables and the bar. The other skinny girl with long black hair was content not moving and shooting death stares all night. But Thomas Edison still gets 5 stars from me. read more

Everything a corner bar should be... THE UP-SIDE: A tremont institution. A HUGE selection of beer, and good bar food served up from the Next Door Deli, adjacent to Edison's. In nicer weather, visit this place for the back patio. It's quiet and relaxing, and a great place to hang on a date. THE DOWN-SIDE: It's Tremont. You're gonna have a lot of posers around you; all trying their hardest to look like they're not trying at all. THE SUM-IT-UP: Try this place out for a good selection of beers, a great pizza and a nice back patio experience. Watch out for the uber-hipsters! read more

DOGS IN BARS DOGS IN BARS DOGS IN BARS....If you can handle that then the Edison Pub is your place.I like the blues bands on Saturday and the crowd seems to be the liberal white yuppie types.The beer selection is VERY VERY VERY VERY VERY VERY GOOD!!!The patio is is a good one and I enjoy in the summer time.Me and my girlfriend spent a a decent day there just talking one day.I like the popcorn machine and the ability to get slice from the pizza pub next door.If your the type who hates gays and liberal then stay out this place because its full of any and every type of person their is.I think the Edison Pub is a good spot for people looking to chill out and have a decent time to drink and just talk.I like the bars of Tremont because the vibe and patios in the summertime... read more

Edison's Pub - Good selection of beer - Pubs Near Me - Cleveland, Ohio

For the easy-going. Excellent place to enjoy a beer w friends or make new ones. I always end up in conversation with other patrons here. They've got a strong local regular base in the beautiful hipster neighborhood of Tremont. Great craft beer selection with regional, CO, and CA brews. Continuous PBR special with a chance to win free beer on every bottle. My favorite part: The largest canned craft beer selection I've found yet. Worth noting is the pizza. A co-owned pizza place is adjacent to the bar and food can be ordered from the bar. I haven't partaken yet, but the pie looks and smells majestic. read more

Really like the vibe of this place. Very casual. I hate bars that are so loud you can't hear your companions speak. You won't have that problem here. Huge beer selection to boot. My only gripe? My lambic cost me NINE dollars. Ouch. Bonus? Free popcorn. I love when bars offer free munchies. read more

This is not the fancy 1920's speakeasy Edison that I am familiar with in LA. Rather, the Edison Pub is a down and dirty spot with a great beer selection, ample seating space, pool table, and FREE popcorn (can't say no to free popcorn!), all at a reasonable price. Bottled specialty beers are around $8, and while the popcorn machine may seem questionable in terms of quality and cleanliness, the popcorn is delicious. I'd definitely come back! read more

I spent a fun evening at Edison's the other night with a large group of people. This is a nice casual place that's good for just hanging out and catching up. We took advantage of the convenience of the pizzeria next door and had "delivery" of sorts. (If you place an order and tell the folks in the pizza shop where you're sitting, they'll walk your food over to you.) I'm not a beer drinker, but my friends had fun drinking all sorts of random types of beer from the extensive beer list. Cool perks: - Free popcorn - Dog and cat friendly (the cat we saw was a stray - but people brought their pet dogs with them and this seemed to be ok) - Proximity to "drunk food" AKA pizza - Dart boards - Group friendly My posse left this bar to go to what ended up being a much louder, less fun bar. Maybe that's why I didn't see any of the weirdos the other reviewers referred to. I'd definitely go back for a laid back night with a group of my friends. read more

Places like Edison's make me wish that I lived in Tremont. The bar itself isn't spectacular. The basement bathrooms can barely fit one down the short hallways, let alone two people trying to pass each other. I felt as though I was heading down to put the lotion on the skin or else I'd get the hose again. But, the pizza -- oh, my sweet Lord, the pizza. We stupidly decided that a medium for two people would be just fine, a mistake we couldn't remedy. I ate half of the pie myself (I told you, I'm a big, big man) and I could barely move for the rest of the evening. In fact, I nearly skipped breakfast the next day I was so full, and drinking more beer was almost out as well. Almost. The barbecue chicken pizza is the stuff of legend and those lucky enough to try it are rewarded with what could be one of the best pies I've ever eaten. I also loved the art on the walls which I'm told changes often. I was enamored with the paintings done this time by Christopher Stofan, who I'd never seen before, but have now thoroughly researched now, and now enjoy immensely. The beer menu was extensive and tasty. I prefer draft to bottle and I was not disappointed with the selection, even when I decided to trudge along into the bottle list. Likewise, the mixed drinks were poured strong and not very expensive. The patio was cozy, allowing people to have conversations without having to shout into the night, despite the threat of rain all evening. If you're looking for a place away from the noise, you can't go wrong here at Edison's. read more

Great little bar with lots of character. There was some really good live music on when I visited. Also managed to fulfil my lifelong dream of starting a 'USA! USA!' chant in this bar (I'm English...). read more

Worst. Bar Service. Ever. Stopped in on 2-27 for a night cap. Haven't been treated that rudely since a trip to New York. Will not recommend nor will return. Sorry, were with friends of the owner. Hopefully they pass on our experience. Dud. read more

This place is a clean dive bar with a great selection of beers over in the Tremont area. Nicely shaded patio area where you can enjoy quiet conversation, and even bring your dog. Service was fast and attentive, which is always appreciated. Making this a little bar I'd definitely like to go back to again. If you're in the mood for an evening that's low-key and casual this place offers that. Beware! It's hipster, but they don't bite! read more

I'm really torn between 3 and 4 stars with this one. It could go either way, depending on how you look at it. But I went with the 4 stars since I do seem to keep coming back here so there must be something about this place.... Sean and I end up here about every other week when we are unable to resist the allure of the pizza from Edison's. GOD that stuff is so good. We're big-time dog lovers so the fact that there is usually at least one furry critter in the bar is always good. Beers are diverse and pretty cheap. If you order a PBR in a bottle, you can guess your 'playing card' which is found on the inside of the cap. If your guess of '3 of clubs' matches the cap, it's free. Not good odds, but kinda fun anyway. Also, mad props to the barmaid the other night who referred to this beer as a 'Pabst' rather than the usual 'PBR'. That reminded me of my dad, is super old school, and made me smile. :) I love all the historical photos and Thomas Edison stuff on the walls throughout the place. We're nerdy so it's just the ticket. The patio in the back is generally nice. Sometimes its pretty smoky though so if you're a non-smoker like us, you may want to steer clear if it's busy out there. Cons: It could smell better, it could be cleaner. In the bar area, there's just a faint not-so-fresh smell. Part dog, part bathroom, part years and years of spilled beer. Bathrooms are bit on the iffy side - down a narrow staircase in the basement and are not disgusting but not great either. Overall, a nice chill spot to have some beers while waiting for pizza from Edison's. Pick up your pizza at the window that opens into the bar and have some more beers. As long as you're not a germophobe, you'll probably like this spot. read more

Edison's, the chill ass neighborhood bar with a killer beer list. Do I need to really need to say more? Edison's has a great cozy bar area with a lot to keep your eyes distracted. There bartenders are no bullshit but also have no problem helping you pick a beer. Basically, it's the holy bar rule: Don't be a douche and all is good. Also, this place lets you bring in food which I love. We had some cupcakes that needed consumed asap so we sat at the bar, ordered our beers and proceeded to shove our faces. I have only been here on Saturdays around 5/6 so it's never been too busy but I can see it getting packed ont he weekends- though it's a pretty big space. read more

Quirky: something that is strange/not normal but cool. Cool points include: *Unique bar up front where live bands preform in the opposite corner. * Head up the stairs and you will find booths, pool table, popcorn machine and the easy access window to the amazing Edison's Pizza creation station where I have been known to burn the roof of my mouth because I am incredibly impatient... *Patio. Who doesn't love a patio. It is spacious and private in the back. Love it during the summer months. *Dogs. You can have your pup follow you around all day every day here. Not sure about cats... *Quirky people meetings...including my latest one-a gentleman telling me how he owns the tapestry on the wall by the pool table and suggests I "feel it". Then demonstrated. You don't find these people just anywhere. *Beer. Enough to choose from. *Pizza. Just get a slice. So good. This chill Tremont spot is great any night of the week. And especially at the end of any night out if only for the pizza. And don't forget to dip it in the honey! I remember my first time thinking "why??!!", but you'll get it. read more

I feel like Edison's is probably better the less busy it is. I have had to wait quite a while for beer here. There also isn't anywhere convenient to lean in and order next to someone. You're right on top of someone yelling your drink order in their ear. Trivia night seems like fun, yet not for serious trivia people. Answers are written down on a sheet and collected, and the questions are read over a P.A. system, but if people in the back want to google the answers, they easily could, and no one would catch them. I saw some people doing this. So, why play really? I also agree with the reviewer who said you will get dirty looks for being dressed up. I have come in before a nice dinner wearing a dress and heels and gotten looks. I didn't think much of it though, I just want beer. They have strongbow in a can so it meets my expectations. The atmosphere is laid back and it's not loud because of the spread-out rooms. I saw people in here with their dogs which I think is cute, though I'm sure it would gross some people out. Come on a slow night or early on the weekend. read more

They have a great beer selection. They carry Bell's from Kalamazoo, MI, which I love and miss very much. Since they don't stock it anywhere in the Pacific Northwest, I have to satiate my thirst for this lovely potion every time I head home! They had the tasty Oberon Ale on tap. Mmmm, so good. Though what they have on draft is limited, they make up for it with a vast selection of bottled beers. During my latest weekend visit, I was pleasantly surprised with some good live music. The band played in the front room, right by the bar. It's kind of a small space, and a weird venue to watch a band play, but I spent more time listening to them, rather than watching them. The back room offers a retreat from the loudness of the music, which precludes one from being able to talk to a friend. Plus, there is a small pool table, if one is in the mood to play some billiards. Finally, the large outdoor patio dotted with wooden picnic tables offers a great place to relax during a beautiful evening. If you live in Cleveland, you must enjoy all the patio experiences you can fit into your schedule before the abysmal weather kicks in! And though I wasn't hungry during this past visit, I have always enjoyed the food at what used to be called the Next-Door Deli. read more

Great pub! We were driving through Cleveland and needed to find a bar with very specific criteria. 1) It had to be showing the NY Giants football Hall of Fame game. 2) It had to be dog friendly since we had been driving all day from eastern CT. Wouldn't think of leaving our dog Max in the car. I called a few other supposedly pet-friendly bars in Cleveland, but this was the only legit one with a nice gentleman who answered. Free popcorn and water. The one TV was showing the Giants game, and Max was more than welcome, and to his delight there were other 4-legged friends he could schmooze with. We ordered wings and pizza from the shop next door, which were delicious and very filling and delivered right to our table. The garden area was more busy since it was a nice day. They could use more TVs, but it's not really a "sports bar", so the one fit our needs. I think they could really pack the house if they added a couple more, though. There's plenty of room. Service was a bit lackadaisical. Otherwise, very pleased to stumble on this gem. read more

I came here one night around 8pm for a few drinks after dinner with my boyfriend. Very, very casual. It was not crowded when we got there, and managed to get two seats at the bar. We camped out until around 11pm-12am-ish, by that time it was pretty busy. It seemed a lot of people there knew each other, so it must be the same crowd most nights. This place is dog friendly, so yo ucan bring your dog in. I want to go back sooo bad and try the pizza that looked/smelled so good. Reasonably priced. I got a Pabst Blue Ribbon (bottle) that had a card number from a standard deck on the inside of the bottle. The bartender had a game where if you guessed the right card, you got the beer for free. Very fun, and I almost got it right, which made it more fun for me, and wanting to buy more to keep guessing (lol). The Heinekin girls were there the night I was, so that made it a little more fun too. Very chill, I liked getting there early to get a good seat (but left before the band started playing literally ten feet away from up), and can't wait to go again to try that pizza! read more

Edison's Pub is in my old stomping grounds of Tremont. Used to walk here a few times a week back in the day. This is exactly the kind of pub I miss in San Francisco. Not that SF is lacking in pubs or watering holes, but there is some kind of magic spell that Edison's puts on me that keeps me coming back when I visit home. One thing that really surprised me is the quantity of quality beers offered in bottles including selections from Lagunitas, Bear Republic, and Brewery Ommegang. Some of these on tap would be nice, but just having them in bottles is enough. My only disappointment, which is relatively minor, is no more "crabby cakes" at Edison's Pizza next door. A huge plus is the popcorn to help absorb the alcohol. read more

Thursday at 9pm is Trivia Night! I love me them trivia nights. This place is a cozy relaxed pub with friendly service and a great beer selection. It's definitely a local hang out and it feels that way. The pizza, which you can purchase through a small window, is maybe the worst ever. The cheese is rubbery and looks like they dip the whole slice in a bowl of that radioactive translucent orange grease. Bad pizza aside, the place it's self is a fun time for all. PS - Turn up the volume on your speaker for trivia night, or have the host project her voice. Thanks! read more

On a drive circumnavigating Lake Erie November 2016, we stopped in Cleveland, in Tremont, at Edison's. And we were so very happy we did. Edison's is a fantastically warm and inviting space, friendly and kind staff, great beer and cider selection. And the pizza - wow! Totally scrumptious crust (thick and flavourful, the best of the best) and the toppings fresh and delic! Can't recommend it highly enough - a year later I'm still thinking about going back! read more
