The finalists for the Lanarkshire Live Pub of The Year competition are in.
Hundreds of votes were cast for our inaugural competition, highlighting the importance of a good local to our readers and communities.
Our very merry band of secret shoppers were delighted to embark on their covert, boozy mission to put a final nail in the coffin of any residing New Year’s resolutions, partaking in a few pints, glasses of wines and halves on the fly along the way.
And having submitted their comprehensive reviews of the leading favourites – marking them from one to ten in 10 different categories – we can now reveal your top 10 favourite boozers.
And that includes the much-loved Treasury Bar in Airdrie.
A previous finalist of the A&C Advertiser Pub of The Year, it’s no surprise to see the Treasury Bar in the running again.
Displaying a fine selection of beers, wines and spirits, this is a pub that is at the heart of its community.
With attentive and polite staff, details of restrictions because of COVID and the requirements of customers are well sign-posted throughout the bar.
Despite the kitchen currently being closed because of the impact of the pandemic on the industry, the Treasury still has plenty to offer.
Clean, warm and friendly, punters can enjoy live entertainment, live sport, and drinks outside in their beer garden. A decent offering of non-alcoholic drinks are available, with ample bar snacks to help soak up the suds.
We left after spending an hour there and enjoyed the relaxed feel of the place.
When open, the kitchen is linked to Just Eat and the bar is involved in charity drives and collections for the local area, recently collecting donations for the Diamonds in the Community charity.
A relaxed and enjoyable venue, it’s worthy of its place in our Top 10.
And now it’s back over to you.
We need you to vote one last time for the pub you think should be crowned Pub of The Year for 2022 and be in with a shout of winning a £50 bar tab on us!
Simply vote using the jotform below by no later than 12pm on Wednesday, March 2. We’ll announce our winner on Friday, March 2.
