BLVD is a chic cocktail lounge located in Spinningfields, which continues to draw in customers with its live entertainment, and opulent interiors. Transforming the former Neighbourhood space, this sophisticated venue is definitely a stand out feature in Manchester's nightlife, with both late night party animals and young professionals found inside its doors.
The venue has drawn inspirations from bars of New York, LA, and Miami, and has created an international à la carte menu that transitions a restaurant space into a late night cocktail spot. Start with some nibbles for your table, including the garlic bread topped with cheese and truffle oil, or some marinated olives. Small plates are perfect for sharing amongst the table, or for trying out a few things on your own.
Choose from the calamari with lemon, chilli, garlic, mixed peppers and cherry tomato, topped with a balsamic glaze, or the gently grilled asparagus spears, topped with fried egg and crispy pancetta. Pasta dishes include the penne di casa, baked penne pasta with meatballs, pepperoni, mushroom sauce, mozzarella and spinach, along with the classic carbonara made with fresh egg yolk and cream. Each pasta dish can also be served as a starter. Large plates include the 10oz ribeye steak with grilled vine studded tomatoes, roasted wild mushrooms and seasoned hand cut chips, with a marrow bone canoe and a sauce of your choice, along with the cosa nostra, risotto al funghi, and svizzera. Fish dishes include the spigola, a pan fried seabass fillet with roasted fennel, saffron potatoes, bell peppers and with a dill, champagne and cherry tomato sauce.
There are also a selection of flatbread pizzas, and delicious sides and desserts. For those looking to celebrate a special occasion, enjoy the bottomless brunch, where you can enjoy a small plate and side along with your bottomless drinks.
