Dish Cult winners from Scottish Licensed Trade News awards

Glasgow restaurants and bars take home 'best in Scotland' at annual awards

A number of Glasgow restaurants and bars – including The Absent Ear and Unalome by Graeme Cheevers – have taken home the ‘best in Scotland’ at this year’s annual Scottish Licensed Trade News awards.

A number of businesses were handed an award at the recent SLTN (Scottish Licensed Trade News) awards, with some Glasgow eateries and bars being listed as the best in Scotland.

Now in its 26th year, the SLTN awards continues to represent the benchmark for excellence in Scotland’s hospitality industry. SLTN is the leading publication for Scotland’s licensed trade and hospitality industry, with all the latest news, products and advice for the on-trade.

Most exciting for Dish Cult is that many of the winners were venues you can book a table with through our website and app!

There were many winners this year with six alone in the city – two of which among the best music venues in Scotland, according to the prestigious industry awards event, which saw Radisson RED Glasgow named Best Late-Night Venue and Saint Luke’s & The Winged Ox being crowned Best Music-Led Venue.
