The best pub chains serving up pints and delicious meals across the UK have been shortlisted ahead of the finals.
The Publican Awards pit the best pub companies in the UK against one another across a number of categories, such as the places which serve the best drinks, offer the greatest meals, and provide the best in-house accommodation.
The awards are just one of a number putting the country's best to the test, and come hot off the back of the Rate Good Roasts.
