Edinburgh pub which banned 'jobbycatchers' named in CAMRA's Pubs of the Year
Dreadnought captured global headlines earlier this year and has now taken Pub of the Year top spot.

The Campaign for Real Ale (CAMRA) announced their Pubs of the Year in Edinburgh and the Lothians yesterday, and a Leith pub which recently captured the attention of the world's media was named.
Dreadnought was named the top Pub of the Year in Edinburgh as voted for by local CAMRA members.
Members then judge the pub on the quality of the real ale and other aspects such as service, welcome, atmosphere, style, decor, value for money and community focus.
