We are absolutely thrilled, delighted and incredibly proud to have won the Great British Pub Awards – Best Pub for Food 2026!
This is a huge honour and one that means so much to our entire team. It is wonderful recognition of the passion, hard work and dedication that goes into every plate, every service and every guest experience at The Kirkstyle.
But this award is about more than just us. It is a celebration of our wonderful rural community and a proud moment for our little pub in Slaggyford. To be recognised on a national stage is a fantastic endorsement of what can be achieved in the most remote corners of the country, and it reinforces our ambition to help put Northumberland firmly on the culinary map.
Thank you to the Great British Pub Awards team for choosing The Kirkstyle. We couldn’t be more proud – and we certainly couldn’t have done it without our incredible team, our loyal locals, our fantastic suppliers and every guest who has supported us along the way. Thank you!
