There’s a familiar name at the top of the Yorkshire Wolds CAMRA honours list this year… and for very good reason!

We’re delighted to announce that Three B's Micropub has been crowned both Yorkshire Wolds CAMRA Pub of the Year 2026 and Cider Pub of the Year 2026 — a fantastic double triumph for one of Bridlington’s most celebrated watering holes.

A Winning Habit

This isn’t the first time Three B’s has taken home the silverware. The much-loved micropub also scooped the Pub of the Year title in 2024, and incredibly, reached the final four of the National Pub of the Year award — a record that speaks volumes about its commitment to quality, character and consistency.

From expertly kept cask ales to an outstanding and ever-interesting cider selection, Three B’s continues to impress both regulars and judges alike. Its warm welcome, community spirit and dedication to showcasing the very best local producers make it a shining example of what a great pub should be.

A Strong Field of Finalists

The competition was fierce this year, with some superb pubs battling it out for top honours.

In the Pub of the Year category:

• Second place went to the ever-popular Old Ship Inn, Bridlington
• Third place was awarded to Moon Tap, Bridlington (last year's winner)

Meanwhile, in the Cider Pub of the Year category, a special mention goes to runner-up:

• Butchers Dog, Driffield

All of these venues (and many others!) continue to champion real ale and real cider across the branch area, and we’re lucky to have such a strong pub scene here in the Yorkshire Wolds.

Have Your Say in 2027

These awards are voted for by local CAMRA members — which means you could help decide who takes the titles next year.
