Landlady Lisa Connor said: “It’s amazing, it’s nice to have the recognition for all of the hard work that my staff have put in.”
Among those shortlisted were Bridge Beers, Heaton Hops, House of Hops, Nordie, Track Taproom, and Station Hop.
When asked why The Kings Arms in Bloom Street, stood above the rest, Lisa said: “I think it’s because we’ve got a very big offering. We do arts and theatre and we’re very community focussed.
“We’ve got a theatre space upstairs so we do lots of plays, stand-up comedy, music gigs. We literally do everything here.”
The Manchester Food and Drink Festival celebrates and puts the spotlight on local businesses around the region.
She said: “I think it’s great to have festivals like this, and especially after Covid, it’s made it feel nicer that we’ve won after all of the troubles and hardships that our industry has faced.”
