The Blue Moon is a much-loved independent craft-beer and live-music pub at 2 Norfolk Street in the heart of Cambridge (CB1 2LF). Listed on Music Live Cambridge, it pairs 20 keg lines and 4 cask lines (plus a gin range of over 100) with a busy events diary: live music mostly at weekends, a comedy night on the second Tuesday and an open mic on the last Thursday of every month, alongside one-off events such as electronic-music 'Open Stage' nights. The kitchen is run by Oscar's Pizzas (Wednesday to Sunday). A genuine community-feel CB1 room that welcomes both original artists and covers in an intimate, grassroots setting.
