A Bridlington pub has been named as one of the top four in Britain by the Campaign for Real Ale.
The Three B’s micropub will now have the chance to compete to become the campaigning organisation’s Pub of the Year.
Run by a husband-and-wife team who are passionate about beer and cider, the popular micropub is described as “Bridlington’s Real Ale Destination”, showcasing four cask beers with a focus on stocking local Yorkshire-based beers.
The pub, on Marshall Avenue, is renowned for its excellent customer service, with the staff providing knowledge on the drinks they serve, as well as information for visitors about what they can get up to in the town.
The Three B’s aims to never sell the same beer twice, making for an exciting range of everchanging beers at the bar, becoming the Society of Independent Brewers’ (SIBA) UK’s Best City Independent Craft Beer Pub or Bar finalist in 2021.
It prides itself on being inclusive, and catering to a diverse collection of locals. They also open their doors to dogs, with a chicken broth-based ‘Dog Beer’ on the menu for furry friends.
Landlord Mark Bates said: “To be told we have been judged one of the top four pubs in the country is truly amazing, this is a testament to the hours we put in at the pub and our great customers.

“We visit many other great pubs in Yorkshire and beyond so know this is a very high standard, this really is an accolade beyond our dreams and would like to thank CAMRA for bestowing such recognition on us.”
CAMRA Yorkshire Regional Director Kevin Keaveny said: “Many congratulations to the team at the Three B’s in Bridlington.
“To make it to the final round of the Pub of the Year competition is no mean feat, and all credit goes to Mark, Cheryl and the team for fostering a welcoming atmosphere and an impressive selection of tipples.
“Though the establishment may be small, its beer and cider range is mighty, and it would be fantastic to see as many new faces in there as possible to celebrate this achievement.”
