    The Luna Star is an experience. It's one of those great corner pubs that you don't see much any more. If you like atmosphere, art, music and history you will feel the vibe. Alexis, the owner is a great gal and the staff makes you feel at home. This bar supports musicians, especially singer songwriters. They try to get a cover charge for the musicians, but if you purchase food and drinks, you don't have to pay the cover which I think is fair. You never know who you will see perform there. it's a lot like the Bluebird and the Stage in Nashville. The decor and atmosphere alone make it worthwhile. If you enjoy live music and a beer without the televisions all over the place, you will like this unique lneighborhood pub.

    If you like places that support local original music with great beer and wine selections then this is the place! Very cool vibe and staff friendly. Didn't get a chance to eat, but the food smelled and looked delicious. A BIG plus I was able to bring my twins who are only 13 on a Friday night. It was great to expose them to original music! Very important to remember....cash only establishment, so be prepared.

    Great locals here. Very welcoming and some quality musicians played the night we went. You can tell Cafe Luna has a solid community behind it. Beer list is varied and very good but can be on the pricey side. Unfortunately my spaghetti bolognese was cooked with angle hair pasta and barely had any meat. Classic American bar with a small stage serving quality beers in Miami.

    A wonderful little place filled with music, high-quality food and exotic beers! Brimming with character and quirkiness, this is truly a "local's joint". Become a regular.

    Very nice staff. Nice location and decor in this place. They have a stage for small live bands. Great ambience. Only cash accepted so be sure to bring plenty of cash. Good good and music. Great place to just come and enjoy without the loudness of a club.

    I been coming here off and on since they been open. This place is a gem in North Miami! Every time I come her I feel welcomed by the owner and staff. I usually come her with one of my best friend who plays here from time to time. It has a little stage for live performances by local musicians and some national acts too. They play a lot of folk and acoustic tunes here. I always enjoy the live music they play here. The great thing about Luna Star other than the music is their beer menu! They have beers from all over the world. If you travel to some country and had a wonderful beer while traveling they probably have it here. You won't find Bud, Coors or any of the mainstream brews that everyone sell and for good reason! Like it says on the menu they want to broaden you mind a little when it comes to beer! From Lagers to Pilsner they have it all! And the put it in its proper glass too. This place is a must try for beers lovers!

    Great cafe in North Miami! Very welcoming staff. We come here all the time with my friends and everybody loves this place. Local musicians play some nice music there as well.

    This post is actually a little embarrassing. After living here a year, I just found to find out there's an intimate live music venue, with great beer, food, and musicians - just minutes from my house. Moving from Athens, GA (which is full of live local music), this is such a relief that I will swallow my pride and post anyway. Beware of the list of rules on the menu and posted on the door; however, these are some of the best rules I've seen posted anywhere in a while. Rules such as: No Budweiser, Coors, Heineken, or Amstel sold here. (thanks!) No talking during the show (finally.) No sex in the bathroom, unless it's with yourself (Well...we'll have to work on that one ;-) To assist those new to microbrew in following the rules, there's the best beer dictionary I've ever seen. There is a description of each beer genre and full descriptions of each beer. The price is $$ - $$$ depending on how much you eat and drink, since as we know, good beer ain't cheap. Brent B. and I ordered the baked brie with honey and garlic and the Mediterranean pizza. Both were full of homemade hippie goodness. The staff was friendly and despite the small space and the show, very attentive. Just make sure to BRING CASH, since they do not accept any plastic. I'll be sure to check out the music line up and pick a night to return.

    Great and unique food and drink selection. Although, a steep cover charge is often required for mediocre bands. We would visit much more often if we didn't have to pay a $5 per person cover charge. The bands don't do much for us, but we like the ambiance, food, and drinks.

    Good goddess Athena I love this place. Whenever I want to get out of town (Northeast Florida, these days), and I have a couple days to spare, I head on down to Miami to visit Alexis and Luna Star. I've never, ever, found anything quite like this place in all my travels. A tiny little place, no tvs, conversation is king. Alexis, the owner, is curious about everyone and everything. She is expert at striking up conversations with newcomers, and making them feel they've been part of the fabric there at Luna since the beginning. The music is always top notch, and since the place is so small, you feel like the performer is playing for you. See you there! Disclaimer: I worked here for three years--that main photo is from my going away party in 2005!

    This is a great addition to Greater Miami's coffee culture scene. They not only servce coffee, beer, and delicious food, but they also provide live entertainment & concerts, poetry nights, karaoke, and plenty of bohemian culture. Locally grown, it is only open at night when the people comes out to feel alive. And this place lets them feel that way.

    Came across this place during a recent trip to Miami. Found Luna Star Cafe to be a super friendly atmosphere! Alexis, the owner, bartender, and patrons made me feel at home. They also delivered on high-quality, super-tasty beers. Tried some really good local beers as well as my first Kenyan beer. I'm a beer aficionado and was very pleased by their comprehensive selection. Highly recommend this place, as a northern California guy, I felt right at home. Great live music, wonderful people, and superb beer!! You guys keep doing what you're doing, cuz it works fantastically!

    Hmmm.... I had a so so time there. We went on a slow night, just for a drink. Because there was someone playing on guitar, they wanted to charge us a cover. It was kind of silly, since there were only 3 other people in the bar. And then they had this weird rule about having a minimum order charge. Like you had to purchase, $7 dollars worth of beverage or food. I can't remember what the exact dollar figure was. So there was that, and also they don't take plastic. All and all it was a little annoying, having to deal w/all the inconveniences that we were imposed with. I thought the beer was a little pricey, but I do like that they are right across the street from the MOCA and also Billies pub. I'll stroll in there again. I think I might've just picked the wrong night, I don't know. I'll pay them another visit and give it another shot.

    I really wanted to give this pace four stars. But as one reviewer already mentioned, the "regulars" are totally obnoxious and made my experience hell. I came here to hear my friend sing for "Open Mic Nite." The cafe is conveniently located exactly across the street from MOCA. It houses the artsy fartsy kids by day and seems to house the loud, drunk, overbearing crowd by night. There were some good and not so good talents before my friend's performance consisting of poetry and music. During most of the acts, the regulars made no effort to whisper, making so much noise, snapping facebook profile pictures and just being totally inconsiderate. After about 10 acts, it was my friend's turn to go up. You know how at every bar there's "that girl?" the ring leader of her group? Usually loud and overweight? Well, while my friend was tuning up her guitar, "that girl" decides to put on her own heckling show. Ugh, I'm getting mad just thinking about it. Finally my friend starts her set and she is awesome. She did a spectacular job, so wonderful I decided to record it on my camera. While I was filming, one of the ladies from "that girl's" crew gets up from the bar, walks over to the stage, stands in front of me (my camera) and the other people around and behind me and starts dancing to the beat of my friend's song. Wtf. Another person had to see how pissed I looked and asked her to stop blocking me. On top of that, throughout every act people were getting up, walking in and out and shit. The entire night, I was just over it all. So, did I like Luna? Yes, I did. The staff and the bartender were so chill and nice. Also, there is a vast and very descriptive beer selection that impressed the hell out of me. But will I be back? Probably not anytime soon. Perhaps if they were to enforce the no talking/no interruption rule during the performances, it'd be a lot better. p.s. ditto to the CASH ONLY thing.

    Luna Star is awesome. Great Service. Engaging Atmosphere. The best selection of imported beer in north Miami. Across the street from MOCA and dive bar Billy's Pub Too.

    Luna Star is the bar where the local MOCA art/hippie crowd likes to hang out on 125th. It's very small and cramped, and some of what little space they do have is consumed by the small stage they have set up in the front. But the stage does get a lot of use, as on any given night, you'll find a live performance happening. If you're one that likes acoustic/folk singer-songwriter type music, then you'll likely find something right up your alley there. It's a coffeehouse that also serves food and beer. I'm not much of a coffee drinker and I don't like folk music, but one thing I do enjoy is their beer selection. They have a great selection of beers to choose from - stuff that you wouldn't find in many other places. I can't comment on the food, since I've never eaten there, but frankly Luna Star isn't my cup of tea (coffee?). The first big (huge) negative is that they don't take credit cards. But to me the biggest sin is that they'll hit you up for money to pay the performer and not tell you ahead of time that there's a cover charge. This happened to me last Friday. I went there to grab a beer and hang out and didn't see any prominent signs stating that there was a $10/person charge for the band. After having already sat down, ordered my beer and sipping on it for a few minutes, the waiter comes around with the jar asking for money. Now, I don't mind that they want to charge $10 cover for the band, but it should've been stated up front (like on a big sign or before the waiter sat us at our table and took our order), that's just bad business on their part. After that incident (and seeing that others have had the same experience), I don't know if I'd recommend this place if you're looking to just have a beer and hang out. My recommendation would be to go across the street to Billy's, but if you're looking for the eclectic crowd/beers of the world combination you find a Luna Star (but replace folk musicians with young, local DJs) head a few miles north to Hollywood and go to PRL off Young Circle and enjoy.

    I love coming to Luna Star Cafe. While you always need cash, since they don't accept credit cards, for me it is always an adventure walking in. AW and I have become some what regulars of this establishment and we can't get enough! The staff is beyond helpful and friendly, and the food there is just as incredible as their selection in over 100 beers! The owner will go out of her way to create something for you to like, while the waitresses will offer their newest beers and their all time favorites. The beer varies in price, but there's a beer for every price range. Folk-style music fills the place weekly (check their website for performances). Plenty or parking outside the bar. Wear your smile, bring your CASH, and prepare to escape from Miami.

    When you walk into this unsuspecting 1200 sqft. joint, you walk into another town. FORGET MIAMI AND ITS BEACHES! Personality paints the walls from ceiling to floor. Exhibitions, political posters and next month's musical lineup adorn this San Franesque coffee shop. The staff is truly kind and helpful. They all know where they work and what they are serving. The owner Alexis brings the establishment some of her own flavor: decorating the bar with all of her favorite gadgets and toys for your amusement. Check out the website for events. They open and close the place as they please. They may stay open a few extra hours and play some of YOUR favorite music if you ask nicely. CHERRY ON TOP - they have a list of over 100 beers... beautifully described

    A real throwback and a wonderful throwback it is! A real live 60s style storefront coffeehouse complete with gourmet beer and an extensive food menu. Friendly community feeling and enjoyable music to boot. Didn't eat the food, but items on the menu sound like they had to be freshly made. No plastic accepted so bring cash. Plastic is most ungroovy man.

    I really like this place. I wish they were open in the day. (If they are, I've had bad luck catching them. Usually the sign says they are open, but they are all locked up.) Great place to meet up with friends, kick back, and catch some live music.

    If you're into beer, they have a menu with more than a hundred kinds to choose from. Other than beer, the menu is light, but they have some sandwiches, fries, etc. and coffee and sodas. Live music many nights -- the night I went it was a group of Irish men and women casually playing together. The atmosphere is very relaxed and the folks who serve you are pretty friendly. The food is surprisingly not-so-bad at all.

    The atmosphere did seem good- lots of people sitting around, listening to music. wasn't sure if they came for the beers or the ambiance, but they seemed nice enough. The quality and selection were decent, although I really do not understand why make a decision to not have even two taps at a beer bar. There is a semi decent beer store not too far away, and thus unless it is for music, I don' t see a major reason to come back. Wouldn't be for the "too cool for this place" service.. I can see paying $5 or $6 for a pint because it is on draft and I can't get that at home, but if most of the bottles can be purchased and enjoyed at home I will do just that. If they do not have kegs due to the fact that the area is not know for its appreciation of craft beers and thus kegs may go bad before enough locals get some, there's always an option to gt 1/4 size or even 1/8 kegs or have specials every two weeks or so before it skunks. Did not have the food, but that was due to the fact that nothing on the menu seemed that fascinating.

    If you are into a low-key place that has a great selection of beers, this place is for you. From the outside, it doesn't look like much, but when you walk in, the place has a great vibe, very cool ceiling that resembles a log cabin. Their food is also excellent. They have plenty of appetizers and entrees at reasonable prices. I had the brescetta. The fresh tomatoes on top of the warm, crispy pieces of bread were delicious. And if you are into beer, they have over 100 selections. They also have live music throughout the week. But make sure you bring cash because plastic is not accepted. All in all, a nice place to chill with a meal, coffee or a brew.
