Bad feng shui?

I know lots of guys who adore this place, but it has never clicked for me. Something about the layout and the location. Maybe it's built over an ancient Indian burial ground. Drinks are decent and the bartenders are efficient. Now if someone would actually talk to me I might have a good time.

Friendly, clean place, but don't tell anybody

Great spot. But don't tell too many people or it'll get too crowded. Clean, well run place.

Mix of people

Moby Dick for me is a place where i go with my friends if i'm not in the mood for dancing. The music is cool but the thing i like the most is that you can play some pool and have a good laugh.

A total mix of young/old!

Moby's must be the staple of the Castro. Had an easy feel to it where you could come in all dressed up or dressed down and fit right in! The drinks were cheap, but not so many friendly folks here. It's like a neighborhood bar, and if you're not part of the neighborhood people sit back and stare. Good eye candy here of all ages!
