Jacob Hartley

It is with a heavy heart that we share the passing of a beloved member of our URG family, Jacob Hartley. The general manager of Bartini and Urban Fondue, Jacob passed away suddenly on February 10th. Part of Urban Restaurant Group for over 15 years, Jacob helped the group open and expand, spending time working and managing several locations, including Swank & Swine and BRIX Tavern. A loyal friend and co-worker, Jacob could always be relied upon to jump in and help as needed, always with a smile on his face. Kind-hearted to the core, he was easy to love and will be missed by all who had the privilege of knowing him. Jacob is survived by his wife and three children. A GoFundMe page has been set up to assist with funeral costs and to support his family as they cope with this tragic loss.
