A handful of pubs in Wales have been recognised as being at the top of their game as the best in Wales and will now compete against each other for the title of Pub & Bar of the Year at the 2023 National Pub & Bar Awards. The pubs have been named on the list ahead of the final awards ceremony which is set to take place in London in June.
At that ceremony 15 regional award winners will be named while one out of 94 finalists will be crowned National Pub & Bar of the Year. Speaking about the prestigious annual event that celebrates pubs and bars across the country Tristan O’Hana, editor of Pub & Bar magazine, which runs the awards, said: “We were overwhelmed by the level and quality of entries this year.
“It just goes to show what magnificent work is going on across the UK hospitality sector. With outrageous energy costs, recruitment shortages, and a punishing taxation system these businesses are once again facing tough times. Now, more than ever, it’s vital that people support their local pubs and bars. So, ahead of the long Easter weekend, why not check out the finest in your county?”
The Welsh pubs named the Best in Wales and are therefore in the running for best regionally and nationally at the awardsare as follows:
- Britannia Inn, Gower
- The Clytha Arms, Abergavenny
- The Fairy Falls Hotel, Conwy
- The Heathcock, Cardiff
- The Old Black Lion, Hay-on-Wye
- The Old House 1147, Maesteg
- Three Eagles, Llangollen
- White Hart Thatched Inn & Brewery, Llanddarog
