While view is spectacular on a sunny day, the $54 per person tea experience was definitely not worth the expense. We ordered the "Victorian" assortment and were disappointed that it was still so heavily weighted towards sweets rather than finger sandwiches. The assortment produced was also missing items such as the caramelized onion quiche which we'd hoped would make the meal a bit more filling than just sweets.
Did the afternoon tea tasting today at Blu. Very elegant experience. Top floor of pfister hotel so great views of the city and lake all around. Brought some guests from out of town. Had a choice from 13 unique teas. I chose cinnamon plum, was delicious. The silverware was awesome. Got some finger foods, tea sandwiches and desserts to go along with tea. Live piano in background. Excellent time sipping tea eating delicious treats and catching up.
At first, I was thinking it was one of the better lounges, with atmospheric decor, comfortable seats, and a good view. It was an attractive, enjoyable experience until they abruptly shut the place down before 11:30, even though official closing time is 1:00. So ask before you sit down when they feel like closing that night. Weird.
Nice place to grab a knob creek old fashion for 8 bucks after work. Nice atmosphere and great view of Lake.
The view is amazing and the drinks are strong in taste. For some people, that can be a good/bad thing. I really enjoy their live music on certain evenings, however, it can be hard at times to carry a conversation since it's a small room and the music can get very loud. The other feature that can be good/bad is the limited seating and if you are going on a date night, you don't get much privacy as you have to share a lounge area with complete strangers. It's great if you are a social butterfly, but if you are looking for more privacy, I would refrain and save this for another time.
