Since 1979 we’ve awarded pubs and bars that consistently serve good quality real ale in a friendly and comfortable environment.
Please visit some of the nominees and, if you’re a CAMRA member, vote whether you think they deserve to win Pub of the Month.
You can vote using the form below or at the branch meetings.
- You must be a CAMRA member.
- You must have visited the pub in the last three months.
- You cannot vote for a pub that you own or work at.
- It isn’t a competition between the nominated pubs – simply vote yes to as many pubs that you think deserve recognition for well kept real ale, a warm welcome and sympathy with CAMRA’s aims – or vote no if you strongly feel the pub should not be recognised (and leave the reason why in the comments box, it may be something we ought to be aware of!).
Fancy a day out trying the nominated pubs? You can find details of the pubs on WhatPub and bus and tram times from Travel South Yorkshire using the links below.
Use the form below to nominate a pub to be considered at the next branch or committee meeting.
- The pub must have been serving real ale for a year or more and under the current management for at least six months.
- You cannot nominate a pub that you own or work at.
- Please contact the landlord/manager before nominating them to ensure you have all the correct information and so they can encourage customers to vote for them!
- Please also use the comments box to let us know what you like about the pub – we can use this in publicity if they win.
