A pub in Ulverston is seeking your vote as it looks to be named as the best in Furness.

At the start of the month, The Mail launched the 'Best Pub 2024' award with readers subsequently nominating their favourites.

From this, the ten finalists have now been revealed with readers able to vote for their favourite by picking up copies of the newspaper until Saturday, August 3.

Each of the ten establishments will feature in their own article with a different one being highlighted each day as they vie to earn your support in the campaign.

To start off the competition, we would like to introduce you to the Gather Beerhouse, otherwise known as Gather Beers, of 7 Market Street in Ulverston.

It is one of three establishments from the market town to make the shortlist, and the owners will be hoping that it is more than its quirky name that sets it apart from the rest.

Responding to the news, Alan Munro said: "We’re thrilled to hear that Gather Beers is in the top 10 for the best pub in Furness.

"This recognition means a lot to us, especially during such a turbulent time for the craft beer industry.

"Being recognized is wonderful, especially as a small, specialist venue, and I'd like to thank our customers for nominating us - we have the best regulars."

Alan shared the story of how the pub came to be, as well as casting an eye on what the future hopefully holds.

"Gather Beers started with a simple idea: to create a friendly spot where people could enjoy great craft beers and good company," he said.

"We kicked off almost seven years ago and have loved bringing the world's finest beers to our little bar.

"Looking ahead, we’re excited to bring in more unique beers and continue being a welcoming place for everyone."

You can make sure that the Gather Beers gets your vote by picking up a copy of The Mail by August 3.
