We are incredibly heartbroken to share the passing of our much-loved friend and colleague, Blake.

Since joining us, he became a true part of the furniture - always there, always willing to help, and someone who would do anything for anyone. He was known for his cheeky, mischievous nature, bringing smiles and laughter to those around him every day.

His kindness, humour, and spirit made a lasting impact on all of us.

We all love him so much. He will be missed terribly by his friends at the Whig, as well as by all who had the privilege of knowing and working alongside him.

Our thoughts and heartfelt condolences are with his family and loved ones at this incredibly difficult time.

Rest in peace, Blake 🧡

⭐️⭐️ Customer Review ⭐️⭐

“We had an absolutely fantastic time making cocktails this afternoon. We were hosted by Blake at the bar upstairs who was just amazing. He talked us through and explained everything. He was so knowledgeable about his craft. We had such a laugh and made delicious cocktails and then went on to have a lovely dinner. The food was great and nothing was a bother to the staff. There was a singer on for some of our time there but it didn't feel too loud and the songs were great. I feel like £50 was a bargain for what all we got and I wouldn't hesitate to go back for it again. I would highly recommend.”

Thank you so much for the lovely review! 🍸✨

Our Cocktail Making Class at The Northern Whig is £50 per person and includes expert tuition, plenty of laughs, delicious cocktails and a lovely dinner to finish. 🥂
