The National awards which culminate in a National final at the House of Commons offer all MP’s the opportunity to nominate their constituency’s favourite boozer. This award focuses on celebrating pubs in our community and Andrew Stephenson MP will be nominating Pendle Inn as the entrant from the Pendle constituency.
The Parliamentary Pub of the year competition will give 650 MPs the opportunity to nominate a pub to be recognised as the Parliamentary pub of the Year.
The main criteria for nomination is a pub that is great at what they do, this can include the range of beer or food provided, the dedication to serving the local Community or a specialism in Music or Sports.
Nominated Pubs will submit a video to the judges, last year's winner the Four Elms from Cardiff submitted a great video linked here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BCSmc9jrmEE

Over 700 people voted on my Facebook page with the Pendle Inn, Barley coming out on top, with the Crown Hotel, Colne and the Europa Bar, Nelson finishing second and third respectively. The Pendle Inn proved popular for its warm welcome and tasty food. I certainly enjoy visiting whenever I can.
