Two Glasgow bars have been named among the best in Scotland in this year’s National Pub & Bar Awards shortlist.
Slug & Lettuce on George Street and The Noble on Bothwell Street will represent the city at the 2026 awards, going up against top venues from across the UK.
They are among more than 250 pubs and bars shortlisted nationwide, with 94 sites to be crowned as county winners before regional titles and the overall National Pub & Bar of the Year are announced.
The awards bash will mark the event’s 10th anniversary and returns to London this summer, with winners to be revealed at a grand final on Wednesday, June 10.

Editor Tristan O’Hana, whose Pub & Bar magazine hosts the event, said: “Our bigger and better format that debuted in 2025 was such a success, we can’t wait to roll it out again this year.”
He added: “The fact that the celebrations last from the long Easter weekend, when we celebrate this year’s County Nominees, right up until the awards night at the beginning of summer is no less than this wonderful industry deserves.”
He said organisers “just want to do what we can to spread the word about these brilliant businesses.”
The night will also see the Industry’s Choice Award, consumer‑voted Pub Group of the Year and Bar Group of the Year, and the Tyrrells Tyrrellbly Good Taste Award handed out alongside the main pub and bar titles.
