Jake Moon adds beer, wine, and cocktails

Thursday, February 12, 2015 - 16:07

CLARKSVILLE — Chef Daniel Smith, owner of Jake Moon Restaurant & Café, announced this week that the eatery will celebrate its sixth year by adding alcoholic beverages to the menu.

Smith recently bought the building that houses the restaurant, at 2082 Delaware Turnpike.

The new alcoholic offerings include blood-orange mimosas, hard-cider sunrises, and sake Marys. Smith described himself as a self-trained cider aficionado, but he is a L’Academie du Vin wine school graduate.

Theming in the restaurant is still local flavors, including farm-country wines, beers, and ciders. Smith plans to include items from producers like Chatham Brewery, Ommegang Brewery, Brooklyn Brewery, Nine Pin Cidery, and Bad Seed Cidery.

The restaurant serves brunch on weekends from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m.; Jake Moon is open from 7 a.m. to 3 p.m. Wednesday through Friday, and serves dinner from 5 to 9 p.m. Thursday through Saturday.
