Best Bar None

Has anyone else spotted the plaque just inside the Union (by the porters' office)?
Best Bar None - Silver award. Well done the Union.
How did the Union compare to other places in town, and who won gold?

Licensed premises in Dunfermline, Kirkcaldy, Glenrothes and St Andrews all compete in the same group. No sign of this year's results on the interwebs yet though.

I've been told that the Union was awarded the Silver prize (with Gold going to a club in Dunfermline).
Several places in town managed to achieve Bronze, although the Union was the only place to get Silver.
Mackays didn't even qualify for an award.

Woo :) Bet McKays will be annoyed.

Not a single award in 113 years? Harsh.

Yep, only the union got above bronze in St Andrews :D

I liked how The Vic staff decided to drown their sorrows in the union the night the awards were handed out!

Cheeky bastard. :mrgreen:

The Vic got bronze, I'm happy to report.
Apparently one of the bars that got a gold breathalyses their clientele before they enter.

And now we know what the union will introduce next... or maybe not.

I sometimes wonder if some of the bars around the town should breathalise their staff before they start a shift......
