Bleu Pub

The atmosphere is welcoming and comfortable, the beer and selection was great, their sweet potato fries are to die for!!! The reason I dropped from 4 to 3 stars is because my burger was not flavorful and did not meet my expectation. I ordered the Dirty Bird burger. I never even tasted the smoked Gouda… Which got me to ordering the burger in the first place. My fried egg had no seasoning and was a very tasteless egg all in itself. My «tomato» was one end piece of the tomato… The burger sounded SO good but I was not impressed at all. Ask for some sort of sauce or dressing to go with your and I’m sure it could be pretty good.

Dropped ~11pm in for a late dinner on a Tuesday. Although the staff were starting to button the place up for the night they welcomed us and took our orders with a smile. They have a nice selection of draft and bottled beer. We decided to split an order of fish and chips with a couple draft ales. The fish was good — crispy battered and tasty. The fries were soft and greasy and that, together with the fact that our server, while he tried hard, was not well informed about the ale selection tilted our rating from 4 stars down to 3.

I attended on Wednesday night which is also trivia night. I ordered a burger and fries, along with a few beers. The atmosphere is really cute. Exposed brick, old sports pictures. It has a southern feel, that matches the downtown Valdosta look. The beers were great. The burger had a good flavor, but my bun was not fresh. It kinda ruined the burger for me, but once I removed the bread, it was ok. The trivia host was cool. The trivia was pop culture of the last 80s to current. I plan to go back, but I will order something else next time. Solid B.

Best pub in town. The burgers are amazing and creative. The drinks are cheap and the atmosphere is so warm and inviting. My new favorite pub in town.

I’ll start with what I thought was working well. I like the downtown restaurant with brick walls. I liked the sports photos, old and new, Including VSU champion team. They offer a student discount, make sure you bring your id. They asked to see the id. There is Parallel parking in the front or parking lot in the back with entrance front and back. My husband likes the beer selection. I quickly got my glass of wine. The waiter was pleasant, but not overly friendly. That was okay. It took too long to bring our drink order, except my wine. That meant it took too long to place our order. This is for a party of 3. We each had specialty hamburgers. Our waiter said they serve the burgers medium unless ordered differently. One burger was medium. The other two were medium well. I had to complicate things by asking to not have the bun, but still wanted the lettuce and tomato. The guy that brought our food (that also took too long) quickly said our waiter would check on us. Obviously, we were not to ask him for anything. Our waiter was busy. They did not include the lettuce or tomato. I went to the bar. The grill is behind the bar. Both guys saw me, but turned away. Yes, turned away until I had to interrupt with an «excuse me». I explained that I simply needed the lettuce and tomato. I was excused to my table. The burger was good, but not great. The homemade slaw was very good.
I understand when wait staff get busy, but when the guy delivered our food I would expect that he ask if there anything else we need. If I approach the bar and we made eye contact, please do not ignore me. This is my second time here. The first time was a late lunch on Saturday. This was a dinner visit.

Good food, good people, good drinks, and overall good spot to hang out. Wednesday’s trivia night is always fun and there’s free shows all the time. Order the blazer (or tazer for tuna) with sweet heat. You won’t regret it.

The music here is live! That is rare in these parts of georgia! The food is pretty sweet as well. I would definitely recommend.

Best place ever!!! Will makes perfect burgers and Julia is the best barista. Clark/​Mark Is awesome too. Craft beer, great food, awesome staff.

We had a blast! Tasty and comfy with a hipster vibe! Strong drinks, great service, amazing atmosphere!!! All the apps we had were stellar!!! I’m going back for one of the burgers!!!

I loved this place. The atmosphere was awesome. They played great music and had excellent service. The food was great and prices were fair for the food you get. I will for sure be hanging here

Bleu used to be my fav– not sure if there’s new ownership? But tonight, service was non-​existent, every beer I used to get there when I asked for it, they were out of. Draft was flat, like it was the bottom of the keg. Food was sub-​par. Fries had been baking under hot lamp and were chewy by the time they made it to us after our hour wait. Burger wasn’t what it used to be. Very disappointed in the new bleu…

Waited over an hour for our three burgers when they finally arrived they were nothing spectacular. The waitress was friendly but her explanation was not satisfactory since many people that came in after us were served before us. The manager and the waitresses all need lessons on customer service. You should not argue with your customers when you can not serve food in a timely manner. If you want to make customers happy the manager should comp the meals, apologize and ask them to come back. Manager was nonresponsive. Will not go back.

If you like burgers then Bleu Pub has a great menu with some cool twists. They also have a decent selection of sandwiches and a great beer selection with new choices weekly on tap.

Waited on food to arrive after 30 mins of waiting to be told they dropped my chicken. Also told they didn’t have anymore chicken in stock. They offered to pay for my meal which I guess even everything out. Probably not coming back.

Blue pub has a great selection of craft beer and great atmosphere! If you are a burger person this is a great place for you!

My husband and I found this place on a date night and thought to give it a try. The atmosphere was cool! It was very laid back and college-​like. The food was pretty good. I like that they are adventurous with their menu… like adding peanut butter to a burger! That was cool to me:) it was a little loud… but overall I was pleased!

Great Burgers! Several to choose from, all are great! Wings are good too. So why only 3 stars? When I go I plan on a very long meal as the service is sketchy at best. If it’s crowded plan on an hour and half. That’s what it took last time and one of my boys never got his food! The young waitress with all the tats and cool hair was just not in a hurry or a student of detail. She kindly offered to take it off of the bill, that was nice since we never got it! Now understand I like the place and the food is good but I have come to expect this kind of service from that type of wait staff. The owner is great, she has several restaurants with good food, the staff could help her out though.

This place is great! The burgers are delicious! Sometimes they have live music for free and that’s pretty great! The whole Ambience is great inside is pretty cool. I love the staff as well all really nice! And a great bar and place to drink with friends! Highly recommend!

I love the craft beer on draft selection they have every week. I come here once a week and I’m never disappointed with the choices of beer.
Other than that, this place is alright. The food is good… Although I’ve never liked their fries.
It has so much potential to be much greater.

I came to Bleu Pub for the live music which was great!
The bartender was helpful in helping me chose a beer I would like by offering me tastings of ones I requested. I am not from there area so I was not familiar with most of the beers on tap. I ordered the falafel sandwich/​wrap… I wasn’t impressed.
The combination of food, customer service, entertainment, and ambiance is more on the positive side of A-​OK. If I am ever back in the area I will come back and give it another try!

Went by to see how things were. Waiter was perfect very informative and knew how to serve beer and alcohol based on are taste. I had the Greek salad which was amazing. My friends had burgers black and blue which they said was awesome. A secret gem which I personally never heard of was the ace pear cider and pineapple cider. Both super good the pear cider comes in a draft and the pineapple comes in a battle. The atmosphere is Indy and fun. If u are visiting like we were u will not regret.

I ordered a Cuba Libré and the bartender goes, «huh?». I was thinking about ordering my usual dirty bird and then as I look over, I see a bug crawling across the bar! One of the patrons sees it and brushes it on to the floor and keeps on drinking. I will drink here, but my rule typically is that if I find bugs, you lose Charles… lol

Great little restaurant downtown. Definitely low-​key. Good happy hour (was 5 – 7 on a Friday evening, don’t know about the rest of the week). Definitely bar food, but done well and made from scratch. Started with a wedge salad which was good (hard to get that wrong). I had a bacon cheeseburger, which had a great flavor, wasn’t too greasy and was cooked perfectly. The fries were nothing special but the burger was great. My husband doesn’t eat red meat so he asked if he could substitute a grilled chicken breast for the burger on the «dirty bird» and they told him no problem. My husband said it was the best chicken sandwich he’s ever had. The sweet potato fries he ordered were also really good. Overall we loved the atmosphere and the food. We will be back!

I’m a vegetarian, and from a veg website, it said this place was vegetarian-​friendly. I didn’t find it so great for a vegetarian.
For atmosphere and friendly service, this gets 5 stars. For food, not so much. The food is greasy and I really didn’t see all that much for a vegetarian. I ended up with a BLT, and I left off the bacon. It had a fried egg on top of it, but it was just way too much grease. I think after putting all the fried stuff on the sandwich, they double fried it again. They serve it with homemade potato chips, also very greasy. (I’m seeing how many times I can say greasy in this review!)
We started out with some onion straws that were (yes, greasy) delicious. The dressing to dip them in was also very good. They were the best part of the meal.
I noticed a falafal on the menu, but I wasn’t in the mood for that. They were very accommodating with my sandwich, leaving the meat off. Our server was very nice and efficient.
This is a very relaxed place. Don’t get me wrong, I had a great time there. I love the décor of the place and it’s a fun place to go with friends. There’s loud music, a pool table and a big bar area. Everybody is friendly and welcoming. It would have been better if I were just going out for drinks and fun, rather than having dinner.
But, I was looking for dinner. I guess for Valdosta GA (where generally they go out and shoot their dinner), this was a good find — but, just not good enough for a vegetarian.
Oh, the prices were great — very reasonable and the place was nice and clean. There’s street parking all around it and it is in the center of the little downtown area.

I’ll start with the burgers. I heard this is the best place around to get a burger, and I have to say that was 100% true! I’ve been to several different burger places around the US and I think this is my favorite. I got the black and blue burger. The blue cheese was just the right amount and you could taste the great quality of it. The bacon was crispy, which it NEVER is at most places. But once I bit into the burger, I could hear the crunch… PERFECTION! It was cooked properly and everything. Good thing we don’t have one of these restaurants near me because I’d be a fat cow from eating burgers all the time. I would have given this 5 stars if only judged on the burger… BUT…I found some MAJOR ISSUES that killed it for me.
#1) Service is the slowest I’ve EVER had in my life… especially for a burger place. I was there for an hour and half. It took at least 15 minutes for the 1 server to make her way to our table. Seriously guys…1 server for the WHOLE place!!! Not acceptable. It would be ok if she moved quickly… but she didn’t have any sense of urgency what so ever. It took forever for me to even get my second beer. I was basically finished with my burger and half of my fries before I got my second beer and I ordered it when I had ¼ left in the glass. I mean she was definitely friendly and our orders were absolutely 100% correct, but such slow service.
#2) The fries are SOOOOOO salty!!! Holy cow… I had to scrape some of the salt off. Props for hand cut and cooked to perfection, but def lay off the salt. Not that they would take this recommendation into consideration, but at other restaurants with hand cut fries, there is a variation in % for salt, pepper, and garlic powder. I think just a little bit of that mixture would go a long way.
People who want a burger that is AMAZING… GO HERE! But make sure you go with great company because you’ll be here a while!

So I came here some time ago and the place was great. The food was also very good. The only thing that wasn’t great was the service. We got our food served and then we were just forgotten. No refills on our food, or didn’t ask us if we wanted another drink. Nothing. We even had to chase the waiter around to get our tickets. Other than the waiting staff being bad and rude, everything is great. Good ambience and good drink selection.

Went there last night and sat at the bar. There were 5 people working behind the bar/​cooking. Not one of them acknowledged I was there, even though one of the guys walked right by me to help himself to a jaeger shot, and the girl served beers to the three girls next to me. In addition, the music in the kitchen and the music for the restaurant were competing against each other. Very disheartening that one of the few local options for non-​college students was a huge disappointment. Obviously never even saw a menu.

I grew up in Valdosta, and spent my first year of college here as well. After living in Atlanta, Arlington, and DC, I can say that Bleu pub is a refreshing find. There was a time when it seemed that the only bars in Valdosta were rowdy, smoke filled dens of *#(@*$# beer. (Which have their place, and I thoroughly enjoy on occasion.)
I was part of a group that ordered an appetizer or two and several pitchers of beer. They have a decent selection of beers on tap, and the food was a-​ok. I’m told that it is fantastic, but we didn’t sample too much food.
The atmosphere was just… chill. The staff were friendly and seemed to give a damn about the place. They also knew their beer, made recommendations, and chatted with us. An overzealous friend ordered a pitcher of stout, which the bartender replaced with a nice ale moments later. He saw that we didn’t like it, smiled, and replaced it. We weren’t going to ask him to do that, either. Nice.
