Very nice place. Nice and responsive staff. And the best, most three-dimensional, sound system I've heard so far.

It smells like backed up sewer in the corner by the bar, there is now food as advertised, and they play 70s music and sometimes racist old movies on the TV to the left of the bar. Granted they are just old movies. But things like that shouldn't be playing in our safe spaces.
I'm also deeply concerned by these past reviews. The responses by the "owner" seem reactive and not becoming of am establishment owner.
**** I edited my review tonight after watching patron get harassed by the BPD. I changed it to a one star because the owner of the bar called the police on this person for being legally parked outside of his bar, but patronizing another establishment. He made up fictitious claims against him regarding a warrant that never existed. Is this what you want in a bar?
***Another update after the response from the business owner on here, you can see the man's actions publicly. Everything he says here highlights when you should never go to this bar. I'm not the only person he called out here improperly. Accusing me of being some random person. How ridiculous.
Wheelchair accessibility: You can easily fit in the bar. But as for the restroom, you can't use the accessable one since it's on the second floor up stairs with no ramp.

Cute safe spot in Downtown/Allentown. The staff is great. Drinks are reasonably priced. It's a charming and cute environment. I Was there the other night with some good friends and had a fantastic time. I just moved back home and found this new place. Love the atmosphere. Will be back soon!

This was my third visit to Edison's. My only complaint would be the service. It sometimes took a while to get served, as well as both bartenders completely forgot I had put in a drink order which I never got. I ended up taking that as a sign from the Universe it was time to venture back to my hotel! ?
That aside, Edison's is my favorite LGBTQ+ spot in Buffalo. The staff and other patrons were very nice and the bar always looked clean. They had popcorn and played different movies and music videos on the TVs. I felt welcomed and a sense of belonging which isn't something I've ever felt living in Philly for the past 20 years.

So I just will update this now. I had a two star review, I didn't say anything. But I don't know what any of this response is. Therefore I'm changing it to a 1 star with this description.
Kitchen account? I simply don't like this bar because it has horrible music, no one goes there, and there is a lot of discrimination that goes on with employees and the owner...
This is kind of a weird response to a negative review that put no information on it. But here's the truth. At this bar, after one drink you'll be paying about $10 when you tip your bartender, and it's not worth it when you can go right next door to an actual lgbtq safe space, where the owners care.
Oddly enough, I gave it to two star rating. If anything of what he said was true, you'd expect a one-star rating like half the other people here...

I chose not to say anything here. I just don't like the bar. I don't know what anything about a negative review has to do with alleged slander. It seems like this bar owners attempting to violate the First amendment and harass people who have a different view.
This should say everything it needs to say about the bar. As for some lawsuit, I'm not being sued for anything currently. I'm a plaintiff in a civil case against my husband's deranged father. But other than that I don't have any idea what this is referring to currently.
I gave a bar a bad review and said nothing negative, just simply a one star. If this is how a bar owner reacts, it's pretty sad. Again this is the type of stuff that goes on there that you don't want to be a part of.
Not a fan. I shouldn't have to walk in and hear the owner complaining about other patrons and such. Just a bad vibe and rude. Seems like a clicky place and full of drama.
Edit: I have no idea what this owner is talking about. This is some crazy stuff... ?
