The Edge Southern Cafe — Restaurant in Jonesboro

I will review The Edge again after I have something other than a couple of breakfasts. And I am going for breakfast again this weekend. Essentially, the breakfast choices are basic, I can get eggs pretty much anywhere. The coffee is good, not great just good. At good it is twice as good as almost everyplace else I have been able to get a tasty simple breakfast in Jonesboro. Since non of us put cream or milk in our coffee I didn't really care that what came out with the sugar was powdered chemicals in foil packets. I don't get it. I don't mean frappaccinos, I mean buy decent coffee, get a good coffee maker,keep it clean. If you build they will come. Another great part of the Edge is the really well thoughtout outdoor seating area. Someone just needs to weed the vegetable garden, which in and of itself can attract customers.

Soul food here we come! If you're looking for a home-cooked meal, you have found the place. Not just coffee and studying anymore. The specials consist of daily items such as fried pork chop, fried chicken, ribs, rib tips, baked chicken, and that's to start. Add two sides of mac & cheese, green beans, cabbage, mashed potatoes, aked beans, stewed potatoes, okra, fries, onion rings with a biscuit, my lunch was like sitting at my grandma's table. Of course, there is the coffee. You can also have a sandwich (club, turkey, ham, roast beef), a cheesesteak, a gyro, or ameatball sub any day. Ask for the spicy sauce. There are burgers and desserts such as peach cobber, banana pudding cake, or just get the butter roll (Yes, it's a real butter roll!). Welcome Back to The Edge. Definitely a...

Visited The Edge after learning that it reopened about a week ago. The menu is currently limited as they are still working on setup but they plan to have a pretty robust menu with a lot of different options. I spoke to the staff there and they were very friendly and informative about the plans. I plan to visit in the future as their menu options increase.

Edit: Visited again today, 4/20/2022 and they are still putting a finalized menu together. They have a partial menu that is served daily consisting of sandwiches and burgers and a special item they change daily. Today was the meatloaf with a variety of sides. The meatloaf was good as were the mashed potatoes and...
