A bar is set to become “Blackpool’s biggest family venue” after taking over the pub next door – and they need your help with a name!

The New Philly Family Bar in Foxhall Road is expanding after its owners bought The Jaq Russell Bar which is located next door.

They received the keys in November and work has been ongoing to get the new bar ready for next year.

Posting on social media, a spokesman for The New Philly Family Bar said: “We will be renovating this bar this winter and are looking to open February 2024.

“Not too far away and the workmen are full steam ahead inside the building.”

The Jaq Russell will undergo a full renovation prior to its opening, but the owners now need your help with a new name.

“If we choose your name you will get an invitation to our VIP open night,” the spokesman added.
