About Us

Dan

Acting Manager

Dan joins us from sunny Poulton-Le-Fylde where he gained most of his hospitality career having worked in numerous venues throughout the town. Dan was born for hospitality so we feel extremely lucky to have him here at the Clog. When he's not working you'll either find him in a cosy cocktail bar in the city working his way through the list or out in the countryside with his two beautiful golden retrievers Honey and Summer... Big difference in those two, right? When asked what was the top of his bucket list, Dan said it would be to go on an African safari.

Emma

Deputy Manager

After spending every spare hour where she wasn't studying for her A levels, asking for extra hours in her previous role as a waitress, we thought it was only right to reward her...with more hours. Emma's proudest moment at work was teaching herself to pour the perfect rosetta in the crema of a latte - and never fails to disappoint by arriving to each shift 15 minutes early to brew up! Living in Australia for a year is right at the top of her bucket list, where we can picture her on a rooftop bar in Melbourne city centre sipping a blood orange gin & lemonade.

Kate

Deputy Manager

What to say about our Kate! Were one lucky pub when it comes to hard work and customer service. Kate joins us from Bolton where she's been working in and around the area for 10 years. When Kate's not at work you'll usually find her having a well deserved lie in. When not resting she's partial to a caramel latte and New Zealand Sauvignon (not at the same time). Be sure to say hello when you visit the pub but don't worry if you don't see her bopping around, you will probably hear her!

Jen

Assistant Manager

If you haven't met Jen yet then let us introduce her to you. Jen joins us from the sunny side of Blackburn. She has a wealth of knowledge when it comes to all things hospitality as she has been doing the job since she was just 18-years-old. Jen is our newest member of the management team here at the clog and we feel very lucky to have her. When Jens not with us here at the pub you can normally find her spending much loved time with her daughter (usually eating food somewhere). Jen is also a supporter of Blackburn Rovers so she loves nothing more than having a crisp pint of larger whilst cheering them on. If you're on Jen's team then why not have a chat about the local team when your next with us !

Charlotte

Supervisor

If you've been coming to the Clog for some years you will know that Charlotte has been with us since the start. She's always on hand when needed and always with a beaming smile. She's worked her way from acsual front of house crew to our favourite supervisor (we only have her!).

When she's not keeping us all in check here at the pub you can find her flying out the country for a city break with her boyfriend. Whether she's in the country or not she will most certainly have a large glass of rosé in her hand so she's the perfect person to pick on for all things wine related when your next in the pub.

Ebi

Chef

Ebi has worked at the Clog and Billycock for over six years, and lovingly makes all our pies. A father of three, Ebi is a keen DIYer and gardener and a wealth of knowledge to the chefs as he has been cooking for over 40 years. A true gentleman and a very popular member of the kitchen crew.

Karen

Gardener/Maintenance Person

Karen, or as we like to call her Kaz, Mrs Kindred or green fingers. If you've seen our beautiful hanging baskets, pub plants or outside barrels then you'll understand why we love her so much. When Kaz isn't working she is either out walking her two little dogs Ralph and Oscar or having a cold glass of pink fizz... Sometimes both at the same time, but no judgements here!
