The Blue Moon in Cambridge

Really nice pizza, beer is really good. Reasonably priced pizza. Some fancy beers if you’re into that, and lots of love music and events and stuff.

Superb choice of beers and very good pizza. Wednesday pub quiz great be sure to book in advance

Fantastic craft ales pub which we always visit when coming to Cambridge. The pizzas are delicious as well

Great local and a fun night out, open til late on weekends

Quirky little bar in a residential area. Really friendly staff and LGBTQ+ friendly.

Rude staff, shouted at my friend for unknowingly walking round the wrong side of the bar to get to the stage. Poor communication and unwelcoming. Super protentious “graffiti" on the bathroom doors. With quotes like "tip your bartender" next to lazy Keith Haring figures. Dull

Great LGBT friendly pub, good pizzas and had fun at a drag event 💜

Progressive cool queer friendly place with something going on almost every eve. Best pizzas in town on most days.

Great music played from the speakers or from the live band. Respectable beers and quick service. From the outside it may not give the right idea but inside there is the right vibe. The attached pizzeria makes well-stuffed pizza but the base needs to be improved a lot.

Great pub with friendly environment. Good for the group meet-ups. Has a garden in the back. Plenty of spaces inside top.

One of the best venues in Cambridge. A safe space for LGBTQ+ people. All sorts of amazing events, fabulous drinks and lovely staff

Great atmosphere, quality food, and a lot of drink options

Apparently having the kitchen next door doesn't allow you the privilege to place a food order. First time you wait in line to find out you can't just place directlly the order and you've got to use a separate website and pay remotely. Which would be fine if it didn't create a grotesque situation.. Despite trying to place an order, I had issues with payments - meaning I had to start again and go through the process. The system wouldn't make me proceed further for some reasons. I go to speak to staff which tells me the Kitchen is closed. At 21.00 despite on the site says it's open till 21.30. Been standing there 5 metres away trying to work out their system is pointless, you fail as a human and don't deserve to eat. Thank you for nothing, whoever is the clever mind behind this. You had me wasting time finding how the system works on a busy night where the menus and qr codes are displaced and I wouldn't be looking for them as I have no clue this is YOUR system. But the good thing is that I went away without ordering so I saved some money for my food and drinks for the night, and learnt which pub to avoid in the future. Plus had time to write this review to warn you that your system is not infallible (perhaps try to convince the clever mind behind this that tech is great and might be making you look cool but customers are what keep you in the system). Take it as you wish, perhaps as a push to consider those poor idiots who come to your pub for the first time, struggle for whatever reason, and rely on the timings you report on your system to know when the kitchens are open/closing. Surely for me I might think twice in the future before coming back to such an inefficient, sterile and customer careless approach. And btw it was a wednesday, so god knows why you decided to close earlier.

Nice pub with a large selection of beers and spirits. It's a shame they can't have any music past 11pm because of their location.

Lovely little find!! Delicious pizzas, lots of choice and they offer dairy and gluten free on all of their pizzas if required!!

Nice beer. Nice tasty pizza. Reasonable price food for Cambridge.

Wonderful pub, with lovely staff and a great selection of drinks! Also, top notch toilet graffiti...

This place makes me excited about having moved from Hackney to Cambridge. The selection of beers available has never been a factor I've noticed before, but this place managed to bring that category to my attention and ace it. Really nice people working there too. What a gem!

I visited the Blue Moon mainly for the legendary pizza, staff were friendly but the kitchen closed 10 min early. There was a live band, but you had to pay £5 and weren't informed it was the last song. The inside is nice, but there are only half a dozen tables. The alternative is to sit in the beer "garden", which is actually a carpark. A literal carpark, as in benches on concrete, you share the space with parked cars and there are signs saying "this carpark is owned by ...". (Nice passive-aggressive response. Won't be coming back. Lockdown ended 3 years ago btw.)

Atmosphere is good. Food is good but not cooked on site. came here as a part of Cambridge beer quarter, venue was advertised as having a live music 7 to 10pm. When tried to enter the music room were advised that ticket is £10pp. Really?? Nothing was mentioned on the website or Cambridge beer quarter website. Very disappointed as planned the evening in advance. Other venues had free entrance as advertised. Be aware of possible charges at the doors

Great atmosphere, delicious food, fun random beers to try out.

Friendly service with many different beers...

Great pints and fabulous staafff

Super friendly staff, really helped me out when I didn't know what to order on tap. The atmosphere was good apart from being sat on as it got busier but it's all part of the fun!

Great pub. Good selection of craft beers and pizza is amazing.

Great pizza and the kitchen went out of their way to make sure our family with severe allergies felt comfortable eating here. The place is very let down by an incredibly rude woman working the bar who was passive aggressive and went out of her way to be rude to small children. So my advice is avoid dining here with kids (who are allowed here before 9 pm) and take your pizza to go somewhere else! UPDATE: WE ASKED AT THE BAR WHAT TIME CHILDREN WERE ALLOWED BEFORE PLACING AN ORDER AND WERE TOLD BY THE MALE STAFF 9 PM! So get your staff up to date if you want to argue with your customers. And I’m happy to provide further insight for “rude woman”. Our kids were picking the wax off a bottle of whiskey used as a candle stick holder to reveal the hidden eagle under the wax. We told them it wasn’t allowed. Our daughter then looked around the room and said “but every other candle has the wax peeled off” so we said sure then ok as long as we pick the wax up after. A woman then came over, took the candle stick from them in a rude swift manor, sweeper wax up, put the candle on the table behind us, lit it (it should be noted next to a candle stick that someone else had picked all the wax off of!! As they had done on every other candle in this establishment), and walked away in a huff. I commented to her they are just kids you know, not based on their behavior but based on how she treated them in the interaction which left them very confused. She said “I like the wax on the bottle” to which we replied then light another candle and it will all come back, but there is no wax on any other bottle here. It was a rude way to treat children, and they were left asking a million questions about the interaction. “Why didn’t she say anything to us? Why is she being so mean? Why didn’t she just ask us to stop?” It completely ruined the mood for them, two tiny people just trying to learn how to interact with an adult world, and who were just on an innocent quest to find an eagle buried under the wax.

Was busy and lively just before the Easter weekend. Dropped in to convene with friends before heading on to our next destination s9 sadly couldn't stay long. great selection of beers, served by friendly helpful and knowledgeable staff the pizzas going past smelt and looked very appetising - wish I could have tried!

One of the tastiest pizzas I've ever eaten. The order was completed very quickly. There are a lot of people, but there is always a place to sit and eat. I will definitely come back there!

Loved watching the live band last night in the music venue at the Blue Moon.

Absolutely fab time. We're not young now but we enjoyed the young vibe. We came here for a music event in the back room but had a few drinks beforehand. Would definitely come again. Very inclusive feel.

Me and my partner came here for the drag night. It was great fun and we thought good value for money considering how long the show went on for. Very welcoming place also and friendly staff. The pizzas were great too. Will definitely be returning!

Famous pub in Cambridge, great variety of beers and gins. Love that. Very friendly staff and the atmosphere is quite fun, usually with concerts and open minded people. Definitely recommend. They also offer pizza, which is really tasty and well made. 5stars

Wonderful pub, pizza was delicious, very dog friendly, staff provided treats and water to pup. Live music, great pub experience

Lovely atmosphereon goth night, really enjoyed our night here.

Some of the best beer in Cambridge can be found here. Great pub and nice people.

Great goth night, lovely atmosphere, quick friendly service at the bar and awesome music. Fabulous night out.

Visited on january 29, server under poured our pints and was visibly irritated when we asked for them to properly filled. Pity as the ales were well kept and the atmosphere was otherwise excellent.

Last Thursday of every month is a brilliant open mic night for poets, musicians and other performers.

No sambuca, which was a disappointment but a great range of ales and beers to choose from, and the staff were friendly enough. Will definitely go back.

Great food, good beer and amazing atmosphere. Would highly recommend and can't wait to revisit

Paid 14 pounds for 2 pints then Got IDd :(((((( they kicked me out :(( edit: they were abiding by the law I’m sorry for the one star I don’t know how to undo it (edit 2: 5 stars they gave us plastic cups to take away ❤️❤️)

Forgot how nice the place is. Haven't been for cheers and went there to catch up with some old work colleagues. One being vegan. Huge range of beers for her. Staff polite and welcoming

Lovely, inclusive, pub with a nice atmosphere and a lovely selection of drinks. The pizzas looked great! Stayed for the quiz, which was great, though maybe the host needs a microphone so they don't have to keep going back and forth between the two rooms!

Great place to go and feel accepted as a queer person. Can't comment on food, but the drink choices were great, staff are lovely too.

Called in on a pub crawl. There was a gig on so we left.

A nice pub and great small venue for gigs. A wide range of beers and nice friendly staff.

Honestly such a lovely pub with great vibes, that holds quiz nights, shows & band venues. has THE most delicious independent food : Oscars lockdown pizza

Coole Location, klasse Bier und sensationelle Pizza!

Got a takeaway pizza from them tonight and it arrived extremely cold. I suggest to eat pizza there which is very good but NO takeaway as it was inedible. Also, i live 5 min from the place so not sure how it got so cold

Delightful! This pub has a huge range of beer, with regular guest takeovers. Oscar's Lockdown Pizza is delicious too! They have a huge range of events, almost every evening, to cater for all interests e.g. D&D, science talks, business, drag comedy and live music. They are Queer friendly and providing a safe space is their mission. This bar is welcoming and you can be sure to chat to lovely humans!

Are you looking for a pub with an artistic atmosphere? Here you go! Kind service, good music sometimes live 😉. Perhaps you're lucky and find poetry, comedy, etc.

have been told that they have an amazing pizza and being Italian I had to try. I liked very much the dough and the cooking, but I didn't like at all the flavouring. There was none of the traditional Italian ones, not even Margherita, but many weird combinations. The classic pizza is similar to Margherita but with Parmesan and Tyme instead of basil. Why? Just tell me why? I guess that English people like it weird pizzas. Lastly, was a little too small. What a pity, it could have been my new favourite pizza place and instead... I'll stick to my current one. In any case still 4 stars and suggested if you like English style pizzas!

We went there for drinks on a Monday night after a rehearsal. Once it was live music, experimental improvisation, the next time a lovely recorded jazz mix. The staff are really friendly and so were all the customers. Nice relaxed atmosphere and a good range of beers and spirits.

Great place great selection of spirits

Me and my friend were refused us drinks without a reason and served others and mentioned we were weird looking dodgey and absolute insulted us we feel disgusted and believe it could be racism horrible customer service!

Awesome little pub with a huge amount of character.

Nice place in Cambridge for gigs. Well known for hosting independent artists.

What a nice place for enjoying Beer & Band. When I been there there was a live music going on. Cool variety of craft beer on cask & keg. I just grab my drink enjoy the live music. It was nearly full pack venue. Never forget the chill atmosphere.

Always nice to visit for a tap takeover. Really appreciate that the full pizza menu is available in vegan versions - very tasty too!

Great selection of interesting beers on tap.

Lovely to find a pub that engages with various city communities. We went to watch a skateboard video and enjoyed a good night out.

Really enjoyed the evening with live singers. Great venue. Prompt service and good facilities.

Delicious funky beers and the ultimate best pizza in the universe. Gin selection = divine. Service is kind and charismatic. And the vibes inside the pub with the fairy lights Polaroid wall and glistening bottles - immaculate 🥹 premium pub

This place in Cambridge is a great spot to enjoy draft beer. They offer over ten different varieties of freshly brewed beer, providing a wide selection to choose from. Moreover, they host various events, including live performances and karaoke, so you can check their schedule and participate in the events that interest you while having a good time.

Didn’t have food there but the drinks were amazing and lovely

Great pub with hugely friendly staff. A Fine choice of beers and a friendly atmosphere throughout.

It's a lovely local pub. Lots going on. Great atmosphere. Friendly staff. Yummy pizza. Amazing range of gins.

Didn't eat so no comments on food. Beer is good. Atmosphere relaxed. Just an ordinary pub that does it's thing well. I'll recommend it.

Great pub combined with Oscar’s lockdown Pizza which is also excellent. I think it’s the best pizza in Cambridge. It uses quality ingredients with some combinations that you wouldn’t normally see. Cracking pint and pizza what more could you want!

Lots of craft beers and gins to choose from. They have live events, music

They have the best beer, the best pizza, and the best vegan ice cream. It’s friendly and each time I’ve been there the sun was shining. What more do you need to know?

Fab atmosphere and good to see a great young Cambridge band E.S.C.

Great food options and real casket ales. We had the pizzas and they were truly great.

Nice place. I was already drunk when I arrived so I don't have much to comment. But the price is fair and the beer was nice.

Good outdoor seating and fun vibes. They had a non alcoholic beer on draft when I went, which was awesome.

Great pizzas, tasty unusual beer. Friendly service even though very busy.

Grungy bar with decent beer and drinks selection. Oscars lock down pizzas are a gem!

Lovely gin and excellent beer garden!

Great selection of beers, divine pizza (with vegan versions of literally everything!), music at just the right volume and a friendly crowd served by lovely bar staff. I’d you’re in Cambridge and want a pint and a pizza then go here.

Bar with amazing atmosphere, good sound mixing on the speakers, and unmatched choice of craft ales at affordable prices. I've tried the City of Cake choc fudge cake stout, and it is literally a cake in beer form. Absolutely delicious! Staff was really helpful and friendly. Will be back to try more brews!

Amazing venue, inclusive and safe, very friendly staff and everyone is just so pleasant and easy to talk to. Drag nights are so much fun and entertaining, talented bunch of folks. The ultimate pepperoni pizza is SO tasty! Definitely a must try, best pizza ever!

Great pizza that you can customize just enough, not too pricey. Sat outside on the picnic tables in the sun, it was very nice. They have pub quizz on Wednesdays so there were a lot of free tables outside.

Обычный паб ,ни чего особенного

Incredible selection of drinks, great staff and the pizza is to die for! The beer garden is lvoely with covering, and there's always plenty of live music events. All of that on top of a very kind and LGBT+ friendly pub - couldn't ask for more!

Nice place with great beers but expensive. Good pizzas too!

Great pub, nice back room for bands, good atmosphere.

£5 for a pint of Craft Stout in 2023!?! Need I say more. Plus skeptics in the pub meets there which is an amazing group so yeah I'll be here for regularly

An excellent selection of beers, always! Prices actually not bad for Cambridge on a lot of items, and spirits are served in 35ml measures 🥃

Great venue for small and intimate concerts and very sweet staff. Very lgbtq+ friendly too

Delicious pizza, good vibes. A hangout.

Great, welcoming space for everyone. Most surprising thing is how amazing the garden is (it looks like a glorified car park but they’ve made it feel so special). Nice selection of beers.

Great music, lovely atmosphere and incredible pizza.

Good drinks Cool place Nice people

Fantastic venue, great performance space, queer friendly, incredible pizzas, great drink selection, and some great events too (shoutout to the sold out drag nights here!) Huge shoutout to Sophie too!

LGBT-friendly pub with dim lighting 💯

Great atmosphere, bands and beer 🍻👍😁

Absolutely brilliant place! Found free parking practically in front of the venue. Terrific crowd, staff and show - I'll be coming back x

Chill and energetic you will feel welcome and easily get to know people, a creative space where everyone is welcome 😀 absolutely recommended 🥰

it looks like a council estate, flat roofed, 5 Bud for a tenner in a bucket type hole but is actually a great pub / bar, 20 keg lines, multiple gins and spirits, pizza, and we saw a Damned and Doors covers band, awesome! Great UK craft beer selection Add to the crawl for tomorrow

Wanted to do the quiz and have something to eat, It’s not just that they have no phone. It’s that when you turn up an hour before the quiz they take great delight in telling you they don’t want one (a phone). And the irony that are they really going to ask ONE person to leave when the quiz starts? It’s the arrogance that I find upsetting. It doesn’t make the world better. Gloating entitlement (Probably misplaced ) may be good business in the short term. So is slavery. Doesn’t make it right.
