Moonlight Tavern — Restaurant in California

Came through to the local spot for a pitcher of Mango Cart and I had a great time. I've been here more than a handful and each visit I'm caught off guard by the vibe in a pleasant way. They have a huge looking door, once you open it and have announced your presence- you're in. The size of the tavern is modest and, yes, it is a tavern so if you're looking for a cocktail 🍸 you would be advised to go elsewhere, beer seekers only. That being said, there is a charm to the place, a dive charm and depending on the clientele for the evening you can lean into a metal vibe, or lean towards a hip hop vibe or the average in-between. There is a pool table towards the back and can be the more popular spot of the establishment. Overall a great spot to drop in a throw back a few after a long day by yourself or with a couple of friends. Great decor with various rock bands and artists adorn the ceilings. In recent times due to the pandemic they've put glass shields between the tables and spanning across the bar, it is great to see that level of consideration. One drawback that it is a bit awkward to place your bar order due to the glass and the masks and music layered on top, but the bartender is more than happy to bring the order to your table and checks up quite often , or often enough to where you are not stuck on empty. Full marks...

I’ve been a long time goer to this place and its been great, but the last time I went, my girl tried to use the restroom because she really had to go, some guy with a cap just went in right in front of her as she was going to go in and closed and locked the door and stayed for a long time and said to use the mens restroom. And when she kept trying to ask him to get out of the women's restroom he got super violent with his responses and was trying to say he was the owner. I highly doubt it, an actually good owner wouldn’t act like that to a paying customer. If he was or wasn’t, that’s just terrible, shameful, and gross behavior to do that to a paying customer and especially a woman, she could’ve gotten an infection for having to wait as long as we did, we had to leave in a rush to take her to another restroom because he refused to get out. Everyone else that works there is really cool and...

Beware of the bartender adding drinks onto your tab! When we disputed the additional drinks and told them to check their cameras to see that we only had 5 beverages vs the additional 4 beverages that were not consumed, the so called Owner and bartender were complicit in this thievery. Refused to refund the difference. Kept telling us the bartender who served us ended her shift so there was no way to know. Nobody ever came to pick up our empty cups. The only drinks we did have were on the table. Never returning to this piss poor establishment. Check your receipts they have most likely gotten away with this several...
