One Glasgow pub appears to be knocking it out of the park, especially if the plaudits given to it by judges at two UK-wide awards are anything to go by.
The Gate in the Gallowgate has not only been recognised as one of the best bars in Scotland at the National Pub & Bar Awards but it's also just been selected as a finalist in the highly competitive Class Bar Awards.
The National Pub & Bar Awards, known for its rigorous judging process, has named The Gate as a county winner for the city of Glasgow, recognising the pub's commitment to excellence in ambiance, service, drinks selection, and customer experience.
The pub will now go head-to-head with other county winners from Scotland and the rest of the UK at the final event in London on June 28, where the overall winner will be announced.

In addition to the National Pub & Bar Awards, The Gate has also been recognised by Class Bar Awards, a prestigious industry award run by Class Magazine.
The pub has been selected as a finalist in the awards, alongside four other bars, including Lucky Liquor, Hey Paul, and Panda & Sons in Edinburgh.
The Class Bar Awards are known for celebrating the best of the best in the bar industry, recognizing excellence in creativity, innovation, and customer experience. The final event for Class Bar Awards is set to take place later this year, when the winners will be announced.
Popular for its excellent range of toasties, and extensive selection of craft beers, cocktails, Scotch whisky and gin, owner of The Gate Andy Gemmell, is proud of his team, he said: "These accolades are a testament to the hard work and dedication of our team, and we are grateful for the support of our Gallowgate community.
"What makes me proud is that each of these nominations are from different sectors of the industry, we have always set out to be a community pub but with an innovative offering so to be recognised by a pub awards and by Class who celebrate bars that are trailblazers makes it even better."
