The Roebuck Inn celebrates after being named the best freehouse in the country in the John Smith’s Great British Pub Awards. The awards, which celebrate the best pubs throughout the UK, took place at the Park Lane Hilton, London, on September 7 and saw The Roebuck beat off strong competition from rival operators.
The Roebuck Inn in Laughton has been shortlisted in three categories of the prestigious John Smith’s Great British Pub Awards and chef/proprietor Dominic McCartan is an individual finalist for a separate award to be given at the ceremony. The rural pub has enjoyed a dramatic transformation after being closed for two years, under the stewardship of licensees Dominic McCartan and Tony Leonard.
