Best Pub Pork Sausage Award

Best Pub Pork Sausage Award

I do like to keep an eye open for these competitions targeted at our traditional pub meals. I mentioned in a previous post about the pub walk being nominated as an English Icon. Well, the banger has got to be another good candidate for this title.

The British Pig Executive (BPEX) is running the search for the best pub banger in association with the trade magazine The Publican. To find out more and read about last year’s winner click on Best Pub Pork Sausage Award.

Once the results are announced, these will be included in the Pub Awards section of our free newsletter The Pub Walker and if you would like to be included on our newsletter mailing list just click on subscribe.

Smoking Ban is now Law in England

Smoking Ban is now law in England

Today the ban on smoking in public places becomes law, coming into line with Wales and Scotland whch went non-smoking on 2 April and 26 March this year respectively.

This is great news for pub walkers, with fresh air now guaranteed inside the pub as well as on our walks! As pubs fear a loss in beer sales, they need to recover this by improving the quality of their food and this is another very positive outcome.

Add to that all the investment pubs are making in improving their outdoor spaces for the benefit of their smoking customers then meals outside may be even more enjoyable too.

CAMRA have conducted an interesting survey on how the new law with affect the public's use of our pubs and a summary of the results can be found at Smoking Ban is now law in England.
