Britain's best pubs and bars revealed just in time for Easter bank holiday weekend

Britain's best pubs and bars have been named just in time for the Easter bank holiday weekend.

A total of 94 pubs and bars from England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland have won the coveted County Winner title as part of the 2022 National Pub & Bar Awards.

The bars have a huge reach from Clackmannanshire to Cornwall and operators will be hoping this will be the springboard they need to continue rising trade.

Fifteen Regional Winners will also be announced, as well as the esteemed accolade – the overall National Pub & Bar of the Year.

Tristan O' Hara, 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,”
