TONIGHT

Happy Hour Outing: Blue Moon

Enjoy a double feature and cheap drinks at the U-District’s saltiest bar.

By Laura Dannen January 19, 2010

You never know what kind of crowd you’ll find at Blue Moon Tavern. Since the U-District pub opened in 1934, it’s been a second home for "radicals, artists, writers, journalists, beatniks, hippies, and wannabees" (according to its website ) —and, of course, college students pounding $2 beers.

But starting tonight, Blue Moon also makes itself a haunt for film fans with its FREE Tuesday night double features and late happy hour. They’ll screen Shaun of the Dead at 8 and Star Trek (2009) at 10, with all well drinks dropping to $3.50 when the second movie starts. Tuesdays are also free peanut nights (woo!) and bartenders will have the usual assortment of munchies and microwaveable mini-pizzas for sale.

If you can’t make it, here’s the lineup for the next few double features:

Jan 26: Airplane, Anchorman
Feb 2: Big Trouble in Little China, The Goonies
Feb 9: Idiocracy, Wet Hot American Summer
Feb 16 (Swayze edition): Point Break, Roadhouse

And a preview of tonight’s movies:
