A CO Derry bar is among six pubs in the North named as among the best in the UK.
One pub from each county has been shortlisted to go forward to the National Pub and Bar Awards 2017.
And Dormans in Maghafelft was the pick of the county of Derry.
The top six in the North are:
Antrim – The Northern Whig, Belfast
Armagh – The Corner House, Derrymacash, Lurgan
Down – Denvir’s Coaching Inn, Downpatrick
Fermanagh – The Taphouse, Enniskillen
Derry – Dormans, Magherafelt
Tyrone – Time Bar, Cookstown
In total, 94 venues from England, Wales, Scotland and the North have been selected as the best in their county, and will now make their way to the National Pub & Bar Awards grand final at BAFTA in London on Tuesday 23 May.
At the final, the 94 County Winners will be in the running to be named the best in their region. What’s more, the overall National Pub & Bar of Year will also be announced.
Tristan O’Hana, editor of Pub & Bar magazine, said:“This is an industry that never stands still – the operators of the best pubs know that they have to be at the top of their game 100% of the time.
“Our 94 County Winners are shining examples of that energy and creativity.
“They are what makes the pubs and bars of the UK so renowned. Congratulations to all of the finalists.”
Well done to Dormans!!!
