Bleu Detroit

Detroit, MI 48012Live electronic, techno and hip-hop acts pack crowds onto Bleu's dance floor every weekend. The caged dancer above the bar is a favorite of men ordering drinks, and the two levels of VIP tables, off the dance floor and on the second level where the DJs perform, are perfect for celebrations. By midnight, the dance crowd is usually so big, it covers the entire first level, except for a little room around the bar where people crowd, drinking and smoking. It's not surprising to see Woodward lined with party buses dropping off the well-groomed and dressed to impress each other.
