The Blue Moon Café in Shepherdstown, West Virginia offers fresh, local and sometimes organic dishes at reasonable prices. When you first walk into the Blue Moon, you see the bar and some casual seating. To your right down a few stairs is the main dining area. The seats are an eclectic mix of church pews, booths and traditional chairs, but the interesting seating just adds to the ambiance. Part of the seating area has huge glass windows on three sides. It reminds me of an aquarium actually; people can watch you as they walk around on the sidewalk outside of the restaurant. The café is decorated in live plants, donated art, random books (take a book-leave a book variety), and gorgeous cobalt blue glass bottles that catch the late afternoon light and help play up the restaurant’s name. There are some walls that are reserved for pieces by local artists. The menu is great for a lot of reasons. It offers a diversity of dishes that are enough to suit anyone’s pallet. There is even a large offering of vegetarian dishes. The appetizer menu has large enough portions to constitute meals, and many of the appetizers are around three dollars. It’s a great deal for anyone on a budget. The Blue Moon also makes a strong effort to bring in local musicians for concerts every Friday and Saturday night. The cover charge is nominal and it usually goes entirely to the band playing. The cost of alcohol at these events is reasonable too, but it’s beer and wine only, not a full bar. The Blue Moon has great outdoor seating too. The restaurant is actually straddling a small stream that runs through Shepherdstown called Town Run. The outdoor seating is positioned around this small stream, and under some large trees. It’s the best place to eat during the summer.
