Brown, 36, is known for mid-2000s hits such as “Kiss, Kiss” and a litany of legal troubles including a felony conviction for assaulting then-girlfriend Rihanna in 2009.
The singer, who has faced criminal accusations including sexual assault and domestic violence, remains in custody and will appear in court in the northwestern city at 10:00 am (0900 GMT) on Friday, the Metropolitan Police said in a statement.
Brown allegedly attacked music producer Abe Diaw with a bottle at Tape nightclub in London's exclusive Mayfair district, The Sun daily reported.
Brown reportedly flew into Manchester airport by private jet on Wednesday afternoon.
Police detained Brown early Thursday at the five-star Lowry Hotel in Manchester, according to media reports.
The two-time Grammy winner rose to fame at a young age with his rich R&B voice and later rap, but his reputation was later tarnished by allegations of domestic violence and other abuse.
In 2012, Brown was involved in an altercation at a New York nightclub with members of hip hop star Drake's entourage, during which French basketball star Tony Parker suffered an eye injury after being hit by a thrown glass bottle.
Brown, who rose from a local church choir in Virginia to sudden fame, was also arrested in 2016 after a woman alleged that he pointed a gun at her.
He also was previously accused of raping a woman in a luxury Paris hotel. He denied the claim and was not charged.
