Rosyth pub is 'Best Bar None' in police awards
18 NovemberA Rosyth bar has been named ‘Best Bar None’ at an awards ceremony hosted by Fife Constabulary.
The Gothenburg Bar in Rosyth was amongst the Gold award winners at the ceremony.
This was the sixth annual multi agency initiative hosted by Fife Constabulary, where 24 licensed premises were accredited as being 'Best Bar None'.
A scheme to recognise and reward well run pubs, bars and clubs which demonstrates high standards in promoting safety and responsible drinking has shown its best results since beginning six-years ago. The scheme covers Town Centre licensed premises in Dunfermline, Cowdenbeath, Kirkcaldy, Glenrothes, Leven, Cupar, St Andrews, Anstruther, Rosyth & Inverkeithing.
The awards ceremony was held on at Fife Constabulary Headquarters in Glenrothes with Councillor Andrew Rodger, the chair of Fife Licensing Board presenting the awards to the representatives of the 24 Best Bar None premises.
The Best Bar None initiative is led by Fife Constabulary with other partners providing valuable support including Fife Fire and Rescue Service, Environmental Services Trading Standards department, the Licensed Trade and the Scottish Business Crime Centre. Diageo are the national sponsor of the initiative.
An assessment is carried out at the premises by a trained assessor who checks on issues such as public safety, drug and search policy, irresponsible drinks promotions, crime prevention measures , risk assessment and staff training among a number of other relevant issues. To become accredited applicants have to score points in the essential sections. The information is then put before an independent panel of judges who decide on the level of the award issued.
