More than 30 Scottish pubs and bars have been named as some of the best in the UK.
The National Pub and Bar Awards announced details of its County Winners ahead of its grand final event taking place in London being held later this year.
Officials seek to recognise exemplary on-trade businesses across the UK and put them into the national spotlight.
The awards also showcases the hospitality industry’s diversity, creativity and vital importance to the UK economy.
A total of 31 pubs and bars in Scotland were named among the 94 listed across the UK.
Each of the pubs will be officially crowned as County Winners during its grand final event taking place on June 22.
The overall National Pub and Bar of the year for 2022 will also be announced during the red-carpet ceremony.
Last year saw Galvin Green Man in Essex scoop the top prize.
Tristan O’Hana, editor of Pub and Bar magazine, said: “Just from being out in these venues, you can see how much pubs and bars mean to people across the UK.
“With visitor numbers increasing, it’s more important than ever for operators to deliver a standout service during every visit - not matter the business in question.
“These 94 County Winners are wonderful examples of the brilliance of today’s modern on-trade.
“If you live near one of these sites, make sure you pay them a visit.”
