As these two local entrepreneurs were finalizing the concept of this new entertainment complex in Edwardsville, IL, they told friends about this rare combination of food, beverage and entertainment. Upon hearing the idea, everyone agreed “What a great idea!” To communicate the electric atmosphere and excitement of the new idea, McSparin and Rujawitz decided “Edison’s” was the natural choice for the name of the venue in honor of Thomas Edison, inventor of the light bulb, universally considered the symbol of a “bright idea.”
Carrying that theme further, Edison’s lounge and restaurant serves up a full-scale menu of Inventive Eats -n- Drinks. With all food made in-house daily, Edison’s adds a creative spin to a reasonably priced menu of American comfort food and affordable reinvented classic cocktails. Edison’s can accommodate parties from 2 to 500 guests and frequently hosts events of all types, including kid’s birthday parties, church and youth group outings, company teambuildings, rehearsal dinners, and holiday parties. Edison’s also offers bowling leagues and fundraiser programs to help support local community organizations.
