56 Edinburgh bars are up for prizes

The awards will showcase businesses across Scotland who have found their space in the market due to their out of the box thinking and dedication.

On Monday 30 September, Glasgow's Marriott Hotel will welcome representatives of local venues that offer great wine lists, an array of beers, innovative cocktails and warm atmosphere and recognise bars for their fantastic crews that are always ready to welcome and serve the customers with unique drinks, blended with secret recipes and ingredients.

A spokesperson for the awards said: “The bar industry has seen a massive growth over the past few years and this ceremony aims to acknowledge those who have played a great role in introducing innovation to this sector.
