Editorial Review for Blue Moon Tavern – by Allen Sheetz
The Scene
Wooden booths with small tables that appear to have been salvaged from a 19th-century shipwreck, and book-stuffed shelves, line the left and right walls when you enter this concrete-floored drinking establishment. The centrally positioned wood-paneled bar, looking equally beat, and ringed with padded stools, is an excellent place to perch.
The Draw
A legendary haunt since the '50s when road-weary Beatniks used it to regularly hold drunken, crazy court. Dylan Thomas, Allen Ginsberg and Jack Kerouac all are purported to have sucked suds here. "A grubby oasis just outside the University's one-mile-limit Sahara," is how poet Carolyn Kizer sums up the historic dive.

Sure you might notice its a little dirty when you come in but hey! Theres an atm inside, a nice quiet crowd n a pool table. But the best thing about this place is the bartenders. One gal even walked me home...I dont remember much of that night but hey how many bartenders care enough to get a gal safely home? I suggest this bar if you want to chat it up w/ some stranger or even a friend and sip on drinks while you enjoy the evening.

This place leaves a-lot to be desired. Atmosphere seems stale and outdated. Ok place to have a beer and leave. Be sure to avoid bathrooms if you check it out.
