Why it's worth checking out
The Edison is an underground bar in the heart of Perth CBD, built around late nights, low lighting and cocktails served into the early morning. Its drinks offering includes cocktails, premium spirit carts, sparkling towers and cocktail trees, with a dedicated drinks menu for guests who want to explore the bar’s top-shelf selection.
The weekend programme centres on RnB, hip hop and Afrobeat, with sessions running late on Fridays and Saturdays. The music-led atmosphere and after-dark setting make it a natural fit for groups looking to continue their night in the city, while private booths provide a more contained option for celebrations or catch-ups.
Functions are also part of the offering, and the venue invites guests to make the bar their own for private events. VIP bookings are available for those planning a group night, with the venue’s booth spaces and presentation-focused drinks designed to suit a more occasion-driven visit. The website provides limited detail beyond the bar’s drinks, music and functions, so checking the current event listing and booking information is recommended before visiting.
