Blue Bar

I personally enjoyed the Blue Bar, but I'm also not entirely sure they are owned by the same people from when I visited back in 2016. At the time, the atmosphere was pretty chill, the bar was fairly modern, & it was conveniently located in the lobby of our hotel - Wyndham Cleveland. The hotel MAY have rebranded to the Crown Plaza since then.Regardless, the drinks were pretty good & they had some fairly authentic Poutine! I'm a sucker for any restaurant that has Poutine on the menu, but being within walking distance of Playhouse Square & most of the noteworthy restaurants downtown really helped too. I really enjoy having the option to drink & not having to drive.What none of the reviewers mention here, is that they also have a pretty killer breakfast at the Blue Bar as well. It's free if you stay at the hotel, but I can't imagine it being too expensive outside of that either. They had their own omelet station with a chef present to prepare your food, along with a buffet featuring a number of other common breakfast standards. Juice & coffee seemed to be complimentary.

I hate leaving a bad review, but this is my secret bf time here in the last two months. My server was overwhelmed and you could tell they where short staffed. I asked what the soup of the day was and her response was "I don't know. " , there was no letMe check or anything. Not super annoyed by this, but I then ordered a Cobb salad that had wilted lettuce, un-ripe avocado with extremely old tasting tomato, my partner got slider which thought where ok and macaroni balls which he said where disgusting. They have a great happy hour, and in the past I have had good food, but not lately. Sorry

I really have only been to the lunch buffet and happy hour. I really enjoyed both. The lunch buffet is $10 and has a pretty generous selection, including my fave reasonably priced salad bar in the downtown area. I love the happy hour. I always get the wings. The chorizo balls and shrimp tacos are tasty too. The appetizer menu at happy hour is half off and wine is $2 off per glass. Location is great and right off the trolley or healthline.

This place sucks. Service is always bad.Stopped in today after checking in at the Wyndham. Waited 30 minutes for somebody to take my order. Then they told me the kitchen closed 4 mins ago.

I had read that this is one of the best happy hours in Cleveland so a friend and I decided to stop in. I couldn't disagree more. To start, happy hour pricing was only on beer, wine and food. No happy hour pricing on cocktails? That alone was a disappointing. I had the caprese flatbread and my friend had the poutine which also received some good reviews. The flatbread had an extreme amount of olive oil and was just very wet. The poutine gravy was dry on top (as if it sat under a heat lamp for awhile). My friend had also ordered chorizo on top which more looked like big pieces of chopped kielbasa not chorizo. I would also point out that big pieces of mozzarella cheese don't count as curds. On the plus side, the bartenders were extremely nice and prompt and the pours were very generous. I did enjoy the ambience as well but not a place I will be back to anytime soon.

Blue Bar is stellar for happy hour! Located inside a hotel, the ambience is excellent. The bartender, James (Jimmy) was so helpful when I couldn't make up my mind on what beer to get, he recommended a mixed drink instead. I trusted his expertise and ordered their Mango delicious mix drink. It was indeed delicious. Both the drink and the Moroccan beef kabobs were amazing! Here's a link to their other great food and beer menu: http://www.wyndhamcleveland.com/assets/pdfs/Blue-Bar-10.15.pdfI will definitely be back to hangout with Jimmy the bartender, he knows his drinks!

The food was really good & had great prices f/the meal. We ordered the macaroni balls, chicken wings, walley fish tacos, & caprese flat bread. We went for Happy Hour which is from Mon - Fri 4:30 - 7pm. Everything is $2 off p/item on the menu. The beer & wine were included with the happy hour, but not mixed drinks. I highly recommend that everyone try the bar for its appetizers & food at the restaurant as well as the great selection at the buffet.

Generous pours, pleasant space, friendly staff, good half-price happy hour.

A great place to stop by for drinks and appetizers before a show downtown. However, it gets filled up very quick since it's pretty small and there's not a lot of seating around the bar. Happy Hour (4:30 - 7:00 on weekdays) is a great deal. Like $2.75 for mixed drinks and all appetizers are half off as well. Pulled pork sliders don't disappoint! I wish they would bring back the goat cheese plate!The downside is it can be hard to find a seat after 6:00, and service can be slow because of the crowds.

I stopped for happy hour. It's a great deal half off drinks & apps. As usual the food & drinks were good - Cosmo & flatbread, very tasty. The staff & kitchen are completely overwhelmed. There is only one register & usually two or three bartenders. The processing system is slow to the point where customers change their payment to cash & it took 30 minutes to get a simple flatbread. The staff is great but the hotel needs to assist them with some upgrades.
