“I’d like to say a big thank you to customers, staff and everyone. It’s down to everyone. Having a good pub in the area attracts more people to come out and stay out.”
Describing what the pub is like and what customers can expect when they walk through the doors, Lina said:
“It’s an oldie worldy pub with really good clientele. People have been coming in for years. It’s majority real ale and there’s no sport. It normally attracts the older end but because real ale is starting to become more popular with the younger end, we are getting more of a mixed bag. It’s a nice pub to come and have a quiet drink.

She added: “Hopefully we can now keep it up and we can win it a few consecutive years at a time.”
