Harvest Moon is located on George Street, just northeast of the train station, near the corner of Church Street. It's a fairly big place in the style of an English pub, with the bar downstairs and the restaurant seating upstairs. Harvest Moon was the Home News Tribune Readers Choice every year from 1997 to 2001.
