An exciting search starts today (Tuesday 26th January) to find Sutton’s best pub, bar and nightclub. In the first such scheme of its kind in the borough, venues will need to meet a wide range of high standards of public safety and customer care.

Participating premises will then be encouraged to implement certain required standards to demonstrate that they are well run and well managed in four key areas:

    • prevention of crime and disorder
    • public safety
    • prevention of public nuisance
    • protection of children from harm.

A team of assessors will visit their premises and the winners will be announced at a glittering Oscar-style awards ceremony in May. The winners of the best town centre bar, best nightclub and best pub will receive a prestigious plaque for public display.
