The Keys Bar in St Andrews 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.
The Keys Bar is a St Andrews institution, and has been owned and run by the Gordon family for over 30 years. DRAM’s judges were blown away by the welcome given to all customers, whether long-time regulars or first-time visitors, and the lively, community feel of the pub means you’ll always feel at home in The Keys.
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.
