    Blue Water Lounge is such an iconic place in Brookfield. I have been coming here with locals for years and we have such a good time! Whether you're popping in before a nice dinner, or ending your night with a group of friends, the expensive menu and delicious drinks are sure to please. Every martini tastes exactly like the description. What makes the whole experience is the staff! Michael and Dave are the stars of the show! Drinks are priced accordingly for the size and passion.

    The bartender Dave was awesome! I had the Ocean 11 martini, a lemon drop martini and a apple crown and cranberry. All great picks. Loved the back of the place it had an enclosed sitting area very low key, it's a vibe!

    Martini OVERLOAD!!!! any kind of Martini you can think of they have. The ambience is nice especially if you're a sea lover (their theme) the shells on the table prefect accent. The Martini's were delicious and did what they needed to do.

    Novelty drinks served in large martini glasses. A throwback to the 90s before the craft cocktail revolution. 100+ drinks on the menu. The bartender shared the recipe for one of the drinks from their "Classic Martini" list: the Maker's Manhattan , eight shots of Maker's Mark and two of sweet vermouth. The place was filled with people who seemed to be enjoying themselves, but it's not my thing. 3/23 I went back with friends who wanted to check it out. It was fine. I added a star to my rating.

    We loved it!! What a selection on martinis. The owner is around and pleasant. They offer bites and times complimentary and the bartender was great. We will be back when we have thsat martini mood. Simple tv for sports viewing but when your drinking these martinis the fish on the was will entertain you

    Very good, strong drinks. I prefer my drinks sweet af and i ADORED the swedish fish cocktail. I just ended up surprised at how expensive it was - BUT mind you i dont regularly drink out at bars so im not normally familiar with how prices should be at a bar. take my opinion with a grain of salt

    This was such a fun find! A martini lounge with a fisherman's flair. The FIVE page martini menu offers an incredible variety of options from a Pecan Turtle Sundae to a Lemontini and a Swedish Fish! Each of us tried something different in our two rounds and everyone was very pleased. A favorite was the Midnight Rave (? I might have the name wrong...) Prices were about $15/martini. Bartenders are friendly. All orders are placed and picked up from the bar there is no table service inside or out. So be careful not to spill!! The only less than awesome things were two - there is only one bathroom, which was always occupied and it was incredibly stuffy and warm most of the evening. When we asked, the staff were responsive and the air had been off. Once the A/C was turned back on it cooled off slowly. We are excited to go back and try more cocktails!!

    I didn't eat, so I can't comment on that. The drinks, service, and atmosphere were welcoming. Nice, old-school vibe, and they are serious about the spirits. I asked for Don Q, which most places don't have or know what I'm talking about. At first, the bartender looked at me in wonderment when I asked. I ordered an alternative rum and went to the washroom. Upon my return, he held off on making my drink because he found Don Q Limón and wanted to give me the choice. Hell yeah, Homestyle! I appreciate the effort, search and find. That was my rum for the night. Overall, I had a great experience and I will return.
