The food, drinks, and staff are amazing. If you’re coming here to just vibe and have a good time, it’s a definite must-visit in Benson.
I went to a trivia night. Not only was the venue just too small for the event (we sat at a table and literally had a group of people arrange their chairs around us so we couldn’t move without making them move too) but there was flagrant cheating going on that went ignored. It really ruined the spirit of the event and my group left after the fourth round. I won’t go back for trivia but will probably be around for studying when there aren’t events happening.

Always friendly service and a good atmosphere! Unfortunately the coffee has been consistently weak the past ~5 times I have visited and I have returned less often because of it. The drinks are on the pricier end and it is disappointing to not have the quality of the drink match the price point.

This is our favorite spot for date night. The beautiful Goddess's that work here always make the best drinks and nibbles. They clearly love their jobs, because they are always singing and dancing. The owners are great and the wife is a Queen! These beauty's are always polite and very warm and caring. I love that their theme changes with the season. Even their drink menu changes. I can't speak enough good things about this place. Keep doing what you do best!

Just go and let your imagination run wild!
Great for families, a place to get some work done or a night out on the Benson strip.
Creative cocktails/non alcoholic drinks served in fun glasses, tea + coffee and baked goods that are allergen friendly.
The theme changes every once in a while — right now it’s “A Starry Night”.
Events like bingo, trivia night, movies and themed parties make every trip to Edge of the Universe a memorable one.

Nice place to stop in for a quick snack or coffee. Tried their vegan and gluten free pop tart which was good. I'm happy that I didn't get sick from eating it, but they didn't have any clean forks when I was there. The staff were nice and friendly.

The first visit was really nice! Love the vibe and the employees. Will revisit and would recommend this little hidden gem!

So adorable. I love the forever changing theme of this coffee house/bar. The owner and staff are absolutely amazing. Added bonus that they sell delicious baked goods from other local small businesses including often having gluten free and vegan options. Really fun themed nights like watch parties and music bingo.
