This Other Drinking Establishment is Permanently Closed

This is an other drinking establishment and you may be charged for entrance at certain times.

Back in the 1960s this was a popular music venue called Moonraker's. As the years passed, numerous names have been given to this venue - The Amsterdam Bar, Blue Moon, Pacha's (a fun pub) and the Townend Bar (a Preston North End fans bar). Another change c.2004 saw this become a music based club (Beats of Rage, later changed to Coda) and eventually the building was used as the Frog & Bucket comedy club.

*****Blitz is still open as a live Music Venue and nightclub to this day but no longer meets the CAMRA definition of a Pub*****

It has proved difficult to establish the correct order for name changes and any additional information would be welcomed by the branch. All photographs by Jim Holderness.

Information for this venue is provided by the Central Lancashire Branch of CAMRA
