Best bar none – Birmingham tops award for pretentiousness.

Pubs and clubs throughout the country are invited to compete for an award – entitled Best Bar None -, nicknamed the pub ‘Oscars’. But the Birmingham organisers are setting their entrants an extra task …….. landlords have to explain, in no more than 250 words, how their establishment contributes to Birmingham’s vision of being ‘ a global city with a local heart’.

Aside from that nonsensical piece of pretentious rubbish, the award is looking for pubs and clubs that provide a safe and enjoyable environment for customers, discourage binge-drinking and help to prevent alcohol related crime. Applicants will be assessed on door and security policies, first aid, how they deal with abusive customers and how they deal with alcohol related crime.

There are six categories: best city centre pub; best suburban pub; best city centre bar; best suburban bar; best nightclub; best hotel bar.
