In addition the New Foresters, who have been the overall winners for the last two years, were presented with a Special Achievement Award in recognition of the venue consistently achieving the highest standards of operation, spurring other venues on to achieve higher standards too.
And the overall winner is *drum roll please!*
The Ned Ludd took the overall title this year for achieving outstanding mystery shopping results and, in the views of the judges, the venue goes over and above what other venues do, particularly in the areas of precautionary measures in relation to drugs safety and also for their support of the local community.
We'd like to say a huge congratulations to the winners and all 116 city venues that received Best Bar None accreditation. If you'd like to know more about Best Bar None and how it affects you then CLICK HERE for more information.
