Sedbergh’s Black Bull has been named the best pub in the North West at a prestigious industry awards ceremony.
Just two months after being named the best in Cumbria in the lead-up to the finals of the National Pub and Bar Awards, it was awarded the regional accolade.
The Black Bull was one of 15 pubs to be named as the best in its region, as 94 county-winning venues gathered in London to celebrate the achievements of some of the leading businesses in the industry. The overall winner was The Frogmill in Gloucestershire.
James Ratcliffe, co-owner of the Black Bull said: ‘’This is totally unexpected, and so far, this year is proving to be a bit of a rollercoaster, having picked up several awards and our second AA Red Rosette for Culinary Excellence.
“This is testament to every member of the team who does their utmost to ensure each, and every guest had the very best experience possible. Working together as a team is what it’s all about and we’ll just quietly keep doing what we do and hopefully take everyone that visits the Black Bull on that journey with us as we progress.’’
