    I was wowed to see such a lovely and cool place in Abuja. I totally loved the ambiance, the decor too is fantastic. The seating arrangements I would say were well thought of and nicely done. The artificial green grass design contributed to the warm feel of the entire place, I also love the wooden designs. Blake Resort is one picture friendly place for ladies looking for gram picture worthy environment. The service here is good, I liked the fact that my order didn't take long to be served and also the customer service is nice and friendly. The menu has so many options to choose from and I totally like the fact that they are all affordable. There is also good music while you enjoy your time. You don't need to rub a bank to enjoy a time out at the resort. I totally recommend Blake Resort and would definitely visit on my next trip to Abuja.

    Was so impressed from my yesterday's visit here. I use to know this place over ten years ago. The remodeling is exquisite . A great place to be with friends and family, birthday parties, dinner nights, live band etc. Food and Grills are sumptuous.. I will visit quite often 👍

    Lovely and calm outdoor restaurant with great food. Blake has a lovely ambience and it major customers are middle-aged people. Best meal i have had so far at blake restaurant is their pepper soup . Their shawarma is also great! So big and full for 2500 naira. The tables for dinning is what I'm not comfortable with. The seats are higher than the tables, and eating on tables like that can be very uncomfortable. Customer service is excellent. It's one of those places I could go over and over and also recommend for friends.

    Design: Beautiful Aesthetic, the designs were carefully thought out. The outdoors section is the “Blake bistro”, while the indoors is the “Serenade”. Food & Drinks: I like that a variety of options are offered, from Alcoholic to non-alcoholic, also the food tasted good but I wasn’t pleased with the presentation. Hygiene/Cleanliness: I took a quick tour round the areas and I believe safe hygiene practices are utilized. Service: The service could be better, the order took longer than expected and the waiter usually takes a bit of time before responding to the bell I was given. Family/Date Friendly: This isn’t a family friendly restaurant, it’s more for date nights, clubbing and chilling etc. If you want to go with kids consider going earlier in the day. Price: The pricing wasn’t too bad. (Please follow @onyiexplores on IG for more info.)

    Blake has got to be one of my favorites places from my last visit to Abuja, now I must commend cos this is a 360 degree from my previous impression of Blake, I have been to visit a while back and it was just an open space that I really wasn’t thrilled about, imagine my surprise when I got strong recommendations to visit again, I was indeed blown away, d decor was really pretty, d food too was cost effective and the portions were good, d service tho was a bit slow towards d ending of my visit, I guess cos d waitress got busy and over whelmed by work. All in all I really applaud the place, I really enjoyed being here

  • 5/5 Tobore O. 1 year ago on Google
    Very private and serene environment, got ther around 6pm, cool music was being played in the background, the atmosphere was really beautiful. When seated , we were immediately attended to, also give a bell to press and our server comes directly to us. Really cool touch, few places in Abuja have that. The meal didn't take more than 15 mins to be served. The meals were well cooked and tasty, my mocktail tasted really nice. I had the Virgin Mojito. The only thing I wasn't comfortable with was the lighting on the tables, it was too bright and the colours interfered with pictures but in all was a wonderful experience.

    Great place for Live Band experience. The Sweet Band do an amazing job in entertaining guest. I advise you come before 9pm so you get a good viewing and sitting spot, it gets so full from 10pm and you won't like your sitting position. The music is from all genres and it soothes the soul. Their cocktail are not really nice , more water than alcohol. Service is so slow, it took almost an hour for me to get my order on my last visit. Asides that, I will always recommend this places for good music with friends and family.

    I had the absolute best time. The shawarma was great. The turkey wings was a bit too bony for my liking. The spaghetti was good too. The drinks were so creamy and yummy it's a 5/5 for me. The environment was serene, good music with really good customer service. I highly recommend this place.

  • 4/5 kemy c. 4 months ago on Google • 104 reviews
    I recently visited Blake Resort and Restaurant and was captivated by the unique charm of their open roof, which provides a distinctive atmosphere when rolled open. The venue's toilet reflected a commitment to cleanliness. Surrounded by a beautiful environment, the scenic beauty enhanced the overall experience. The food presentation was delightful, The staff are courteous, adding a touch of warmth to the dining experience. Despite these positive aspects, the noise from the sound system became a drawback, interfering with the overall enjoyment of our group event. A balance in the audio levels could significantly improve the ambiance and make the visit even more enjoyable.

    I went here on a Saturday afternoon and that was a big mistake. If you want to hang out here avoid going during the day, Expecially on Saturdays There was a wedding event going on, and everywhere was packed full. The weather was hot and the fans did little to nothing. There are specific places you can sit to get the screen view. If you want to watch a match while you chillax, screens are not available averywhere. I didn’t stay long, I just had an Oreo milkshake and left, and r the milk shake wasn’t all that. I’ve had better

    The relaxing ambiance of the outdoor seating at the restaurant may be Blake Resort’s most pleasing attraction. I didn’t have much to eat but the staff were courteous. Try to attend the live band performances on the weekend. The sound is great and it can really be low effort fun. It’s especially fun if you’re in a lively group that doesn’t mind interacting with the artists on stage.

    Blake Reloaded! Beautiful, serene place. Good music, not too loud to cloud your conversation. Good food, spacious. There's an outdoor place and a place for the live music Blake's been known for.

  • 4/5 Chinedu I. 2 years ago on Google
    Newly remodeled, amazingly beautiful Best hangout, nightlife, live band spot The only reason am giving it a 4 star is the fact that a bottle of beer is sold for 3k naira which doesn't make sense to me. Aside that the place is awesome

    The place is now an upgrade of what it used to be like. The ambience is fantastic and the service is top notch. The food is also great as well and the whole Christmas lighting due to the festive season is also cool. It’s nice to see the place under a new management and it’s really a nice place to hangout

    Great food, excellent service, from the moment you enter the space someone is already by your side either helping you to locate a place to seat or take your order. A well thought-out space, very picture friendly.

  • 3/5 Chimereze N. 1 year ago on Google
    Totally revamped since the last time I was there. Good ambiance and vibes. Decent prices too and a good place to pass time with friends... I didn't try any foods (only drinks) yet but would be giving it a second visit. The service was really poor not just for me but another customer who sat beside me and this needs to be improved. I recommend.

    For the best Hausa and continental cuisines, visit Habib restaurants. Also, you can buy the best fura and nunu from Habib.

    I’ve been to the lounge & the restaurant and both experiences were satisfactory. P.S they take a while to cook up their meals. Always add extra 15mins to whatever the waiter would say

  • 4/5 precious o. 4 months ago on Google • 22 reviews
    Restaurant and lounge, Beautiful environment and wonderful service. Prices are a bit on the high side but it was worth it because the food was real good. Orders take from 30 to 40mins depending on what you order and the atmosphere is enjoyable. If its your first time and can't decide, I recommend the death by chocolate cocktail. 😏

  • 5/5 Eucharia O. 3 months ago on Google • 19 reviews New
    Atmosphere was very lively They did some renovations to accommodate more people I had the avocado grilled chicken salad 🥗 (please improve) The drinks are not overly priced I think it's a good spot to hang out in Garki

  • 3/5 Dele S. 1 year ago on Google
    A wonderful place to be. Located in Garki area of Abuja Nigeria it boasts of an eatery, night club and life band stand that has so many incredible performance by singers and dancers. A wide range of beverages are served that goes along with toasted fish, suya etc. If you're looking for an all night fun and exciting evening it's really worth visiting and you'll not regret being there. Security is tight and it's a decent place to be. Above all every dime one spends there is worth it.

  • 5/5 Victoria T. 1 year ago on Google
    Came late night and the restaurant was an enjoyable vibe! From family meal, to date night, to just enjoying the atmosphere with friends, this was the place to go! The chicken avocado salad and fish pepper soup was everything! The fish melted on the tongue like butter on bread, so juicy and soft. The broth itself was peppery and had that much needed heat. The side of plantains was cooked to perfection and the additional sauce packed a heat to put hairs on chest. It was a much needed meal and satisfied all areas of the taste bud. They have a live dj which was nice, for the experience would recommend!

  • 4/5 Jimmy A. 1 year ago on Google

    I love love love what they did to this place. Blakes has been there for ages bit with the new changes and renovations it's a beauty to behold. I visited with a friend and it was splendid! From the beautiful designs and aesthetics, to the comfortable set up, friendly/helpful staff, delicious meals. Their roasted fish is still as lovely as it was years ago. 😍

  • 3/5 olorunfemi e. 3 years ago on Google
    Is a good place if your looking for local cuisine. The service is average but sure you still get quality for your money. They offer northern cuisine, but is a fair consecutive place so you have to respect the local culture.

  • 5/5 Gideon A. 1 year ago on Google
    I am a staff there and the Live band is so amazing.

  • 5/5 Winjobi O. 1 year ago on Google
