The winners are split between six regions and 17 categories, including this year’s newcomers: Best Pub Loos and Best Cider Pub/Bar.
They were chosen among hundreds of entries by a judging panel including David Hancock, editor of the Alastair Sawday’s Pubs and Inns Guide; Alastair Gilmour, editor of Cheers North East; Amanda Wragg, pub guide inspector and Yorkshire Post columnist; pub journalist Phil Mellows; and Rob Willock, editor of BigHospitality’s sister publication Publican Morning Advertiser – which organises the event.
