Speedwell Bar raises a toast after being crowned Pub of the Year

A Dundee bar is celebrating after winning the Tayside and Perthshire Pub of the Year award.

Perth Road bar The Speedwell, also known as Mennies, was presented with a certificate at a Campaign for Real Ale (Camra) meeting in the pub.

The Cherrybank Inn at Perth was the runner-up, and the Market Bar in Dundee won an award for best newcomer.

Jonathan Stewart of the Speedwell Bar said: “It’s a testament to this beautiful bar and all of our inspirational customers who are always willing to try new things – and our staff, who are skilled in cellarmanship.

“We always keep the cellar in good order and I must be the only person in Britain who enjoys cleaning beer lines. I find it therapeutic.

“It’s a great time to be involved with Camra with all the new breweries opening and real ale being one of the growth products in the market.

“On behalf of all of our customers and staff it really is an honour to win this award.”

Each year, the members of Tayside Camra are invited to nominate pubs for the Pub of the Year competition. The most popular suggestions are put on a shortlist, and voting is held to choose a winner and runner-up.
