“Moon River…your beer is not too bad
But it makes sad, to say
One Pale Ale…One Brown Ale
And way too many IPA’s…”With apologies to songwriter Henry Mancini, Moon River was a convenient stop for our 2-visit to Savannah in November, 2016 as part of a year-long odyssey through the good ol’ USofA.
Convenient in that it was across the street from our hotel…next to JJ’s Beer Bar and Churchill’s and it was late afternoon and we didn’t want to get back in the care to drive even 1 mile to find a place to eat.
Having said all that, Moon River fit the bill perfectly.
With a lovely Tripel on tap, plenty of good Southern cooking (fried green tomatoes, deviled eggs over trout, chicken and sausage creole) wife Persimmon’s taste buds and mine were satisfied.
And, we even got a special entrance to the haunted downstairs. Featured on 2 of the nations’s most watched “haunted” shows (I don’t know what they are because I don’t watch them) it was a cellar full of brick and a bit of wood and it was fascinating to be someplace while the other diners were enjoying their chips and salsa…both inside and outside in the 200+ seat beer garden.
Nevertheless, after a short drive in from Beaufort, South Carolina (40 miles away) on a clear, Fall day…Moon River refreshed.
The service was grand…the food delectable…the Tripel outstanding…the company excellent.
Moon River can’t take all the credit…but it sure was claim part of the prize.
