Butcombe celebrates four pubs named Best Pub in their counties
Butcombe Pubs & Inns is celebrating after four of its sites have been named Best Pub in their counties as part of this year’s National Pub & Bar Awards:
The George Inn, Norton St Philip, Somerset, The Methuen Arms, Corsham, Wiltshire, The Victoria Arms, Old Marston in Oxfordshire and The Mill, Haslemere - Surrey
Each year the competition crowns County Winners from England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland, giving each site a unique platform to promote themselves and increase guest footfall from locals and visitors alike.
Judges were impressed with the way the teams at Butcombe Pubs & Inns, demonstrated excellence across several elements that affect the customer journey, including design, service, food and drink, style of offer, marketing and investment.
Jayson Perfect, COO, Liberation Group, which owns Butcombe, said: “To have one pub named as County Winner would have been great but to scoop awards for four of our sites is fantastic!
"We all work so hard to give our valued guests the very best food, drink and hospitality experience when they visit us, so to be recognised at these prestigious awards pays testament to the hard work, care and dedication of our teams across the business.”
All County Winners will come together at the National Pub & Bar Awards Grand Final on 26 June where Regional Winners will be crowned alongside Pub Group of the Year, Bar Group of the Year and the overall National Pub & Bar of the Year.
Tristan O’Hana, Judge, National Pub & Bar Awards said: “The fact that we had record entries for the 2024 National Pub & Bar Awards tells us how highly the industry regards these accolades, which is fantastic.
