Inverness's best bars, pubs and clubs were recognised for their customer care and commitment to a safer city centre at the Best Bar None Awards Ceremony this week. The ceremony was held in the Town House and 16 pubs & clubs were awarded. Seven gained Gold, Seven gained Silver and Two gained Bronze awards. Overall Category winners were Love2Love, Johnny Foxes & The Den and The Gellions who go forward to the National Awards in Glasgow in March.

"The emphasis is on getting all the premises to go for it and see how far they get in the awards scheme. I wish them luck and hopefully we get a winner this year in the national awards."
