The Edge

Few bars have thrived during COVID as the Edge has. Having expanded into not one but two parklets, it has cemented its position as the Castro’s default Happy Hour destination on a tree-lined corner at the neighborhood’s true edge. But make no mistake: The Edge will always be for musical-theater geeks and show-tune queens, with nights like Musical Mondays and Dirty Musical Sundays alongside socially conscious live entertainment like all-trans drag shows plus drag brunches. If you like to watch Drag Race in the company of people who can cite the previous seasons’ mini-challenge winners with savant-like precision, The Edge is for you.
