It's that time of the year when we announce the winners of our Pub, Club and Cider Pub of the Year awards.

Firstly, our Pub of the Year 2025. Many congratulations to Cask & Tap, Topping Street, Blackpool on winning this award this year. The warm welcome and quality range of beers and ciders available in this quirky pub swung the judges to award their best marks to this pub. Commiserations to Fifteens in St Anne's and The Taps in Lytham who are our runners up. Many thanks to the around 100 members were involved in the voting this year.

Our Club of the Year 2025 is, once again, Blackpool Cricket Cub, Barlow Crescent, Blackpool. As always there is a great range of beers in this busy comfortable club along with friendly service.

Our Cider Pub of the Year 2025 goes to the WobblInn, Victoria Road West, Cleveleys. The judges noted the quality of the drinks and service in this pub along with the range of quality ciders, including several not regularly seen in our area, on the six hand pulls.

Congratulations to all our winners who go forward to the next round of judging.
