The Blue Moon Inn is the tavern and inn in South-central Varrock. The NPCs inside play a role in several quests. Johnny the beard is involved in the Shield of Arrav quest, Dr Harlow features in the Vampyre Slayer quest, and there is also a treasure chest upstairs that plays a part in Pirate's Treasure.
When players talk to the barkeeper and ask for tips, he will refuse to give them any, saying that it would make the game too easy. If a player asks 'What game?' he will explain that RuneScape is nothing but a computer game, at which his or her character will say, 'You're mad' and terminate the conversation. In RuneScape Classic, before the release of RuneScape 2, it used to be a popular party room, with players holding parties there almost every night. That practice has died out now, and the inn now is of little interest to most players, holding only a few NPCs which can be trained on, as well as a place to buy beer of course.
The Blue Moon Inn is featured in the Bar Crawl miniquest.
