Macgochans in Tobermory has been announced as a finalist for the Sunday Mail Pub of the Year prize at the 2014 DRAM Scottish Licensed Trade Awards, which take place at The Grand Central Hotel in Glasgow on Monday July 7th.
The Sunday Mail Pub of the Year seeks to recognise the best pub in the country. The nominations were made by members of the public from all over Scotland, who were asked to vote for pubs with a welcoming atmosphere, where customers came back again and again.
Macgochans sits in the harbour area of Tobermory, Mull, and was relaunched in 2012 by Neil Morrison. The venue boasts a whisky bar, restaurant bar, function suite and sizeable beer garden, and is the social hub of the town. Our judges were extremely impressed with the range and quality of drinks available, all served up with exemplary service with a smile.
The awards, dubbed the licensed trade ‘Oscars,’ are organised by licensed trade magazine, DRAM. Now in their 19th year, they are the longest-established awards of their kind in Scotland, recognising excellence in Scotland’s bar, restaurant and hospitality industries.
