The Semifinalists
The entries to the The Pub Awards 2027 that have come through the shortlist.
Semifinalists are still to be announced
Semifinalists are named once the shortlist has been judged. Entries are still open, so this list is not closed yet.
How a semifinalist is chosen
Shortlisted entries are scored against the same criteria, more closely, by judges who know the category.
Independent Judges
No pay to win. Judges are external experts with no commercial stake in the outcome.
Transparent Scoring
Every entry is scored against a published, weighted criteria framework.
Merit Based Evaluation
Winners are decided on evidence and results, never on reputation or budget.
Industry Experts
Panels are matched to each category, so every entry is judged by people who know the work.
A category for every kind of pub
Community locals, freehouses, country and town pubs, micropubs, brewery taps, licensees, managers, chefs and pub teams. There is a category for every one of them.
