  I've had a love affair with the Blue since its inception, and I haven’t always been drawn to it but the last few years, under the guidance of Tom O'Brien it’s morphed into a total delight - almost a sanctuary, a friendly roadhouse full of loving, albeit noisy people who all seem to be related to one another. Moonlight travelers who drop in are soon adopted by the attendant family and before long, feel at home. There are dinner specials on some nights, $10 Lasagne, $11 Meatloaf Dinners.
  And beyond the bar is an expansive and comfy wood-accented dining room.
  But what I like best is the live music. Usually four or five days a week local virtuosos drop by and thrill the room. These are often well-known musicians who know half the people in the room and it’s always free.
  In the warm seasons, there’s live music on the outdoor stage, beyond the dance floor which borders a patio with shade umbrellas and several long wooden tables. It’s a country roadhouse fantasy, beer and oysters on the outdoor grill, table service against a backdrop of green hills and cooled by its nearness to the coast. Family-friendly, casual and a very familial atmosphere.
  The staff and owner Tom O’Brien are friendly, helpful and focused. There are more good qualities but you may choose to discover them yourselves!

  A local Watering Hole that's been around for decades serving good food and good drinks. Beautiful country views and solid California style food. It's an old wooden building and is well-loved by locals.
  
  The kitchen stays solid as does the bar. And you really can't go wrong with any of those standards or the special.
