Shortlist revealed prior to the Good Food Guide Awards in 2024
Two Yorkshire restaurants have been shortlisted for ‘Best New Restaurant’ ahead of the Good Food Guide 2024 awards.
The Good Food Guide, will celebrate 2024’s crop of ‘World Class’ and ‘Exceptional’ restaurants alongside special award winners in a ceremony at London’s historic Theatre Royal Drury Lane this month.
The ceremony will see more than 200 prestigious industry guests from across England, Scotland and Wales gather to hear which restaurants have made it into the Guide’s ‘Exceptional’ and ‘World Class’ categories, and who will be crowned winner of seven special awards, including ‘Best New Restaurant, ‘Best Front Row Seat’, ‘Best Farm to Table Restaurant’ and ‘Chef to Watch’, which features two of Yorkshire’s best restaurants.
Over the past two years, The Good Food Guide has sent their inspectors back to work, anonymously inspecting and reviewing thousands of restaurants in all corners of the country.
With an overhauled scoring system, venues are now awarded a rating of Local Gem, Good, Very Good, Exceptional and World Class. Only 39 restaurants across Britain will hold the rating of Exceptional or World Class, reflecting the extraordinary level of excellence required to reach this level.
