Blu Night Club Bar & Grill

I thought all hope was lost for the Brimmer but am glad to see they are under new ownership as Blu.  I was there for the grand opening of the new place and have to say I was impressed.  They did a great job cleaning the place up and moving away from the divey place it used to be.  The waitstaff was professional and attentive and space was upscale and open.  There is a lot of potential here.  I was also told they are working on turning the downstairs into an whiskey and cigar bar eventually.  

The drink menu looked good as well as the food.  I think this place is still trying to get it's bearings by looks of the patrons as it determines what it is supposed to be.  The crowd was mixed from people who looked like they belonged in a divey bar to folks who were dressed up mixing in with the new vibe.

I really hope this place adds some class to the somewhat unclassy Manchester nightlife scene.

This place is fine. I wouldn't go here again though. Its not my scene. Most of the people are older and it's funny watching them get drunk. Prices were ok. Bartenders were alright. There's better places in Manchester to have a good time in my opinion. This one doesn't really leave a stamp in my memory.

Forty something cougars. $5 cover. $7 martinis. Bison sized doormen. Rock and roll cover bands. One of my least favorite places in downtown Manch to have a beer.
