Choices for the guide are made following regular visits to check on the quality of the real ales on offer. Volunteers also took into account customer service, décor and overall atmosphere before submitting a pub for the annual guide, a spokesperson said.

A spokesperson for CAMRA said, “It is our belief that if a licensee serves an excellent pint of real ale, then everything else in the pub, including customer service, quality of food and atmosphere, are likely to be of an equally high standard.”

Val Cheang, manager of Wetherspoon pub the London and County, said, “I am delighted that The London and County has been recognised for the quality of its real ales by CAMRA members.

“We offer our customers an excellent range of real ales at all times, including those from regional brewers and microbrewers, as well as hosting our own beer festivals.
