Scottish & Northern Ireland POTY
Scottish & Northern Ireland Pub of the Year - What is it
The Scottish & Northern Ireland Pub of the Year (SNPOTY) is an annual competition run by the Scottish & Northern Ireland CAMRA Regional Branch to find the best pub within the Scottish & Northern Ireland area.
The Process
Once all of the local Scottish & Northern Ireland branches have run there local POTY competition and have announced there winner, these local winners are entered into a regional competition.
Each branch puts forward its local POTY winner (10 pubs in total) and a Judge to take part in the regional competition. Each pub is allocated a Area, North Scotland, Central Scotland and South Scotland. Each judge must visit the pubs they have been allocated and complete a survey. Once the surveys have been submitted, the top pub from each area is then surveyed again. The winner of this is then crowned the Scottish & Northern Ireland POTY.
