The Publican Awards is open for pub and bar operators of all stripes from across the UK to stake their claim to being at the top of the table.
Entries for the awards, which have been running for three decades now, are still open to the 2 December and operators can enter online here.
The competition offers the opportunity for operators to be recognised across a range of categories, from best employer to best food offer, and compete against some of the best in the business.
Ed Bedington, editor of the Morning Advertiser, which organises the awards, said: “There’s still time to get your entries into this prestigious competition and it’s a great accolade to be able to say you’re a Publican Award winner.
“The best companies in the sector will be competing across 19 categories, and entering the awards is a great way to get a sense of where your company sits against the competition.
“Times are tough at the moment, but entering the awards is a great way to raise the profile of your business, give yourselves an MOT and boost morale within the team - what are you waiting for? Get your entries in now.”
