Blue Moon Diner

Blue Moon Diner sits on Griffin Road in Cooper City, categorized on its Yellow Pages listing under American restaurants and coffee shops, with a name and Facebook handle, “bluemoondinercoopercity,” that explicitly ties the business to this specific city rather than to any larger diner group or franchise. The diner keeps notably long hours for a small independent restaurant, opening at 7:00 AM every day of the week and, on Fridays and Saturdays, staying open until 9:30 PM, well past a typical breakfast-and-lunch-only cafe schedule.

According to its directory listing, Blue Moon Diner is wheelchair accessible, offers free parking, and serves beer and wine in addition to standard diner fare, and it accepts all major credit cards. Yellow Pages also lists a budget-friendly price range for the diner and estimates the business has been operating for about 31 years, a figure that, if accurate, would place its founding in the mid 1990s, though this is a directory-calculated estimate rather than a specific date confirmed directly by the business.

The diner sits on Griffin Road, one of Cooper City’s two main commercial corridors, close to several other small independent restaurants clustered along the same stretch of road, including Chinese restaurants and a nearby pizzeria. The U.S. Census Bureau’s geocoding service confirms that 10076 Griffin Rd falls within Cooper City’s incorporated boundary, placing Blue Moon Diner inside city limits.

A search of Florida’s Division of Corporations records found a filing under the name “Blue Moon Diner, LLC” (document number L09000059353), which closely matches the diner’s public branding, but this filing is currently listed as inactive, described in the state’s database with the notation “UA.” Other similarly named entities on file, including “Blue Moon Diners, Inc.” and “Blue Moon Dining, Inc.,” are also listed as inactive or in name hold status. This pattern, where the most closely matching corporate filing is inactive despite the diner’s directory listing showing current, detailed, actively maintained hours and amenities, mirrors a similar situation found with a couple of other long-running Cooper City restaurants during this research, and it is flagged here as a detail worth confirming directly, since an inactive LLC filing does not necessarily mean a restaurant has closed. Small businesses commonly let older corporate paperwork lapse or reorganize under new entities without any interruption to daily operations.

Given the diner’s specific, local-sounding branding, its consistent and detailed presence on Yellow Pages, including current hours, accessibility information, and payment details, and no evidence of any other “Blue Moon Diner” location tied to this Cooper City business, it reads as a genuinely independent, single location neighborhood diner, notwithstanding the inactive Sunbiz filing that leaves its precise current legal status somewhat unresolved.
