Edna's on the green.
 

We carted down to Edna's on the green. Beautiful place under the trees. But our friend order a wine. Tiny glass. $9 ridiculous price. Every country only charges about $6. I don't why anyone would go there with reduclous prices. Even beer was $650. Oh well.

They give you a cup for water that cost nothing.

People go there because they like the spot and the live music and vibe. All of that comes with a premium on the glass of wine I guess.

Byo!

Been there a couple of times and had a pleasant experience. But it’s not a regular place for us to go. The prices play part of that sentiment.

We enjoy the atmosphere. Good food and 1 expensive beer makes a nice afternoon.

It seems like a lot of people buy there wine by the bottle at Edna's, I'm guessing it a little bit better deal.

I've never been to Edna's but $9 for wine and $6.5 for beer doesn't seem expensive to me even if it is cheaper elsewhere. Was the food any good?

Labor ain’t free or cheap. Neither is a building, a lease, taxes or insurance. Not to mention all day entertainment.

Plus, we gotta make up for all the water with a lemon drinkers.

we are price insensitive to 1 beer or 1 glass of wine whenever we go out. The purpose of going out is not for the price of the serving, but for the price of the enjoyment, hanging out with friends, relatives, or just listening to the music. .

Of course it's cheaper at home, but the view and the people and the entertainment are the same day after day at home. .

YMMV

Agree. Unless you're getting Happy Hour twofers, those prices are not that different than what you'd pay anywhere.

If you want $1 beer and $3 wine, buy from the liquor store and drink at home.

Not in the parking lot. I don't like beer or wine but do like to have a cocktail or two and that is why God created coolers and airline size bottles. I don't mind paying for it but they don't have it.

$9 for a glass of whine? $650 for beer? Must have been on draft.

Cup for water? Not with water? 🤔

O, agree.

I'm a BYOB guy when ever I can.
We brought in water and "were talked to"...............the lady was very nice, she brought us water, but we had containers. :22yikes:

I love Ednas!! I hope I never start complaining about prices, having to tip, prices, and oh… prices…

Thank you! I never knew that.

Not to mention all the folks that stole their wine glasses. You have to leave your licenses to drink from a “real” glass. Otherwise you get your wine in a plastic cup.

So to the folks that did that, thank you!

Even if I only want one glass? Can I get a "to go" bag for my leftovers?

WHO SAYS SO?? Water with lemon is a cheapskate lemonade that they sweeten with the sugar or splenda the steal. Charge a buck for lemon on the side! List it with the drinks. 25 cents for a straw. Cheap Bassasstards! (If anything is misspelled, it's the fault of Otto Koreckt) 🧐

That single policy keeps me away. I go back about once a year to see if it has changed... not yet.

I certainly understand keeping the BYOBers out, this is a business not a public picnic area. But I hate drinking warm beer, I hate drinking beer with ice even more, and I'm not interested in balancing one plastic cup on top of ice in another plastic cup. Yeti has a whole line of containers to help keep cold beer cold - Edna's is the only place I am aware of with a policy against them.

I like stability. And my recliner. And my wife still looks fabulous to me.

Heard hear first! GOD'S real name is IGLOO!
(yes, it's just a joke. It's safe to laugh. God has a sense of humor or he couldn't have given us one.)

Are you sitting in your car or cart? Just curious. 🫠😉

Neither one. I keep a few sealed airline size bottles in the spare tire compartment of my SUV, ice and cup in my cooler. When my wife orders a glass of wine from Edna's I go out and stand outside the back of my car, mix a drink and walk around the parking lot or walking trail, toss the cup and empty bottle in the trash and go back to the music. Don't get me wrong, I'm not too cheap to buy drinks but at that particular location there is nothing available and we do pay for my wife's wine there with no complaints. We prefer the squares or Sawgrass.

Glad you are getting your 10,000 steps. Have a great day!

You have to get the ice and water from the machine.

They should have upgraded to a full liqour license when they added the new kitchen. I prefer decent vodka with tonic to beer, wine, or hops based stuff.

I agree, drank more than enough beer and wine over the years and just don't like it anymore and only drink vodka now. They are definitely losing business without the license however they are generally packed and maybe don't see the need to have one.

I believe the liquor license for beer & wine only is cheaper and easier to obtain. Serving spirits is another level, which they may not want to bother with.

We enjoy Edna’s and we find it very relaxing and love the music. We often go there with groups of friends. If you are purchasing a drink or two the prices seem fair for the great ambiance. If you are not a social drinker and need to drink more than a few drinks you probably should buy a bottle and a case of beer and keep them in your cart, or your car and certainly have a substantial cache at home. You don’t want to run out!

I feel sad for places like Ednas. If you can't afford to go there, dont. I pray I never get so cheap I have to steal music and facility space from a place like Ednas, then bad mouth them on line. For those that have never been, Ednas is a GEM in the Villages As long as you do not need to steal ketchup packages from McDonals, Edna's is also reasonably priced.

We love Edna's. Live music 7 days a week and twice on Saturday and Sunday. Happy hour from 3 to 5 reduces the pain a little. On top of that they have the best staff ever. There is no place in the Villages that tries harder to please their customers than Edna's. I have never been there without at least one employee calling me by name. They are not afraid to try new things in the kitchen and the food is way above what you might expect. Top quality. It's probably not for everyone but we like spending our time and money there. Well worth it to us.

I agree
 

Some people don’t even consider the cost to run a business. If they ever owned a business they would totally understand why a glass of wine costs so much.

Overpriced and under performing.

ednas management knows this, has witnessed it as well youre not that sneky, cameras

and do you tip the entertainers, betting no

Breath, Breath.

No one is stealing music. No one is stealing space.

Just like the squares................this is all free and there is not drink minimum or rent required.

*Overpriced for your budget
