Record Breaker: Tamworth Pub Crowned Best

The Tamworth Tap has made history by securing the Campaign for Real Ale's (Camra) National Pub of the Year award for a remarkable third time. This latest accolade marks an unprecedented 'hat trick' since the competition's inception in 1988, a feat previously unachieved by any other establishment.

The popular Tudor hostelry, known for its 16th Century shop front and historic courtyard offering views of Tamworth's Norman castle, was commended for its vibrant atmosphere, welcoming décor, and excellent service. Camra highlighted the pub's dedication to providing a true sense of community for its patrons.

Judged on criteria including atmosphere, décor, welcome, service, inclusivity, and the quality of its cask beer, real cider, and perry, The Tamworth Tap also serves as the home of Tamworth Brewing Co. The pub consistently goes beyond just serving drinks, hosting a wide range of daily events such as craft clubs and tutored tasting sessions.
