Fodor's Review:

Housed in an elegant former newspaper building, the Northern Whig is spacious and stylish. Three 30-foot-high statues of Soviet heroes that once topped Communist Party headquarters in Prague dominate the wood-and-leather interior. In the evenings, one wall slides away so you can watch classic movies, a jazz band, or a DJ playing laid-back blues, soul, or retro music. The food is brasserie-style—not astonishing, but good. It's the environment, the thoughtful wine list, and the cocktail bar—which specializes in rare vodkas such as Finlandia mango vodka (dynamite in "Storm in a Glass")—that are the main draws.
