What happened after Best Thing I Ever Ate?

On 'Unbeatable Breakfast,' an episode of Best Thing I Ever Ate (Food Network), the show featured Blue Moon Café's breakfast menu in the Fell's Point neighborhood of Baltimore. Sarah Simington and her mother, Sherri, opened the café in 1996 and built a following for playful, rock-and-roll-themed breakfast dishes served daily. A Yelp business listing for the café, updated September 2026, showed thousands of customer reviews and photos, and the business separately runs an online ordering page on the Square platform. The restaurant's own website, bluemoonbaltimore.com, still lists the 1621 Aliceanna Street address and phone number but otherwise carries narrative content describing the café's 1996 founding, with no newer dated updates found on that site.

On Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives episode 'Comfort Food' (aired 2008-06-15), Guy Fieri visited Blue Moon Cafe, a breakfast diner in Baltimore's Fells Point neighborhood known for its playful, over-the-top dishes such as Captain Crunch French Toast. Sarah Simington and her mother, diner veteran Sherri, opened the cafe at 1621 Aliceanna St in 1996, filling it with bright, funky artwork and a rock-and-roll attitude that Simington carried into the menu. The restaurant's current website, bluemoonbmore.com (copyright 2026), still lists the original Aliceanna Street address and shows the business has since expanded to a second location, Blue Moon Too, on Light Street. Yelp's listing for the cafe, updated September 2026, carries more than 2,700 reviews. The restaurant's older website, bluemoonbaltimore.com, remains online but has not been updated since 2011.

Blue Moon Café appeared as the Baltimore stop on Worth the Wait, spotlighting the Fells Point café's Cap'n Crunch-crusted French toast and its funky, art-filled dining room. Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives featured the café's French toast in a 2008 episode. The café operates at 1621 Aliceanna St. and now has a second location, Blue Moon Too, at 1024 Light St., per its own website. A site check on 2026-09-09 found bluemoonbaltimore.square.site live and recently modified, and Yelp reviews for the Aliceanna Street location dated July and August 2026 describe continued waits and crowds.
