We are utterly delighted to have made it onto the North East England Tourism short list for Pub of the Year 2027.

This award is extra special as it denotes our continued contribution to tourism in the north east. To us this translates into our ongoing investment and support of our local community, creating jobs and contributing to the economy.
Pub of the Year is an accolade that says many things.
The food that Connor and the team produce in the kitchen rivals that of many high-end restaurants across the country. Our bar and w**e list are equally impressive, while our four bedrooms offer a luxurious place to stay.

The Kirkstyle attracts visitors from far and wide, while remaining firmly rooted in its local community. We bring people together, rekindling old friendships and forging new relationships in a warm, welcoming and non-judgmental environment.

To us, this is what the traditional British pub represents; a place where everyone is welcome, bringing together people from all walks of life. In many ways, it is the perfect embodiment of diversity and inclusion

We are absolutely thrilled, delighted and incredibly proud to have won the Great British Pub Awards – Best Pub for Food 2026!

This is a huge honour and one that means so much to our entire team. It is wonderful recognition of the passion, hard work and dedication that goes into every plate, every service and every guest experience at The Kirkstyle.

But this award is about more than just us. It is a celebration of our wonderful rural community and a proud moment for our little pub in Slaggyford. To be recognised on a national stage is a fantastic endorsement of what can be achieved in the most remote corners of the country, and it reinforces our ambition to help put Northumberland firmly on the culinary map.

Thank you to the Great British Pub Awards team for choosing The Kirkstyle. We couldn’t be more proud, and we certainly couldn’t have done it without our incredible team, our loyal locals, our fantastic suppliers and every guest who has supported us along the way. Thank you!
