Non-alcoholic menu: what to order

Compiled from the venue's published menu, confirmed .

The Edison is a contemporary New American restaurant and cocktail bar in Milwaukee's Historic Third Ward, opened by the family-owned Benson's Restaurant Group in the ground-floor space of the restored 1914 Commission Row warehouse at 322 N. Broadway. The kitchen leans into coal-fired butcher's cuts, seafood, and brunch, while a speakeasy-inspired bar anchors the drinks program. It sits alongside sister venues Bridgewater, Blue Bat Kitchen, and Onesto in the Benson's group.

The non-alcoholic offering here is a genuine, standing part of the menu rather than a seasonal special. The Edison's drink list carries a dedicated "Spirit Free" section with roughly half a dozen composed zero-proof options: the Summer Night's Breeze (Seedlip Garden, lavender syrup, lemon, and a Leitz non-alcoholic Pinot Noir float), the dessert-forward Butterscotch Espresso Notini (double-shot espresso, cream, brown-butter demerara, grated nutmeg), the Hidden Orchard (pomegranate, peppercorn syrup, lime, mint), and a Cinna-oat Iced Chai, plus Leitz Eins Zwei Zero non-alcoholic sparkling and still wines and canned UNDONE mocktails. Because the drinks are named and built with intent, an alcohol-free guest gets a full bar experience.

The Edison is a featured stop on Visit Milwaukee's Mocktail Trail, which highlights its "wide selection of spirit-free cocktails." As of 2026 the restaurant is operating on regular hours, with an active reservation system on its own site, current menus online, and steady recent reviews across Yelp and OpenTable. Reservations are recommended for weekend brunch and dinner.

“The wide selection of spirit-free cocktails has a little something for everyone, from NA sparkling wine to a butterscotch espresso dessert in a glass.”
