Nearly 100 pubs and bars have been named in The National Pub & Bar Awards for 2022, celebrating their successes.
The Riverside at Aymestrey won the overall best pub in Herefordshire.
It will now be entered into the national draw to find out the best pub in the UK. The winner will be awarded National Pub & Bar of the Year.
The Riverside at Aymestrey isn’t far from Hereford and Ludlow and it’s one of 94 pubs and bars across England, Wales, Scotland, and Northern Ireland that have scooped up a prestigious County Winner title as part of the 2022 National Pub & Bar Awards.
Authentic and atmospheric, the 16th-century black and white building is surrounded by the natural beauty of the protected river Lugg Valley and is run by Andy Link and George Parkes.
They have been selected on overall best practice across a number of operational categories and will be officially crowned at a red carpet celebration in London in June, where 15 Regional Winners will also be announced plus the top prize.
Tristan O’Hana, the editor of Pub & Bar magazine, which hosts the event, said: “Just from being out in these venues, you can see how much pubs and bars mean to people across the UK.
“With visitor numbers increasing, it’s more important than ever for operators to deliver a standout service during every visit – no matter the business in question.
“These 94 County Winners are wonderful examples of the brilliance of today’s modern on-trade. If you live near one of these sites, make sure you pay them a visit!”
