Edie Jo’s
Included In
“Grabbing a drink” with someone can feel as mundane as working a quality control job. But instead of assessing the functionality of software programs, you have to smile and nod as your drink companion recounts their latest vacation. Change things up at Edie Joe’s. This is a cool cocktail bar and restaurant with a menu of American food that somehow brings out the child in all of us. The big corner space is full of classic Americana kitsch, which you’ll see in the form of blue leather booths, school desk chairs, and patterned wallpaper that could inspire emblems for polo shirts. Come once and you’ll realize that this is where you should have all of your non-boring drinks in PLG, especially because drinks will likely turn into dinner.
In addition to cocktails and large-format bottled negronis, Edie Jo’s serves a range of American food, but we suggest steering clear of anything your average nine-year-old wouldn’t voluntarily eat. So instead of the grilled atlantic porgy and apple salad, this is the place to order a cheeseburger or an all-beef hotdog, french fries, and a warm chocolate chip cookie.
