Branch Pub of the Year 2026

CAMRA members are invited to vote for their pub of the year for 2026.

Stage one required members to complete a voting form by 25 October 2026, to nominate their favourite pub to go on the shortlist for the panel assessment.

The votes are in, and the top six pubs to go into the judging process are:

• Albion Ale House, Standish
• Colliers Arms, Aspul
• Real Crafty, Wigan
• Swan & Railway, Wigan
• Wigan Brewhouse, Wigan
• Wigan Central, Wigan

All members are invited to help with the judging process. All we require is that you visit each of the shortlisted pubs and judge the forms against the criteria. This task needs to be completed by 18 December 2025.
