What do Allen Ginsberg, Dylan Thomas, and Roethke have in common, aside from contributing to your low grades in college lit? They’ve all called the Blue Moon home. The storied history of this University District icon dates back to 1934, back when the city’s laws required that bars be at least a mile from the school, turning the standard walk of shame back to get your credit card into a mini marathon. These days, the joint’s as much a venue as it is a bar — oh so Seattle! — but considering it functions equally well as a place to down Molotov-level cocktails as it does a place to catch a band on the come up, that’s just fine. Just don’t come in if you have peanut allergies… this place is covered in more nut dust than an elephant pen.
