regulars said to include Dua Lipa, Princess Eugenie and Olivia Wilde<\/a> \u2014 placed seventh on the list, followed in the capital by The Eagle (number 11), considered to be one of the country\u2019s first gastropubs; the Kerfield Arms (14); the Parakeet (22); the Devonshire (28); the Waterman\u2019s Arms (30); the Canton Arms (43); the Camberwell Arms (46); the Anglesea Arms in Hammersmith (55); the Anchor and Hope (58); the Tamil Crown (69) and the Surprise (90).<\/p>\nTop overall on the list, which was published today, is the Highland Laddie in Leeds, a century-old boozer that reopened in April after being bought by Sam Pullen and Nicole Deighton, who also own the city\u2019s popular Empire Cafe. The pub, which describes itself as a \u201cdrinkers pub with a dining room\u201d, is small and cosy, with four local cask ales kept on draft, as well as Guinness and 1970s hit Double Diamond. <\/p>\n
\u201cWe are all absolutely over the moon to be recognised as The Good Food Guide\u2019s No.1 pub in Britain,\u201d said Pullen and Deighton. \u201cWe are even more thrilled to be flying the flag for Leeds and Yorkshire.\u201d <\/p>\n
Chlo\u00eb Hamilton, the guide\u2019s editor, said: \u201cWe went searching for the pubs that nail the drinking and dining side of the equation. It turns out the harder you look the more you find, and they\u2019re not all hidden away in the Cotswolds. The Highland Laddie \u2014 a city-centre slam dunk \u2014 is a very good case in point.\u201d<\/p>\n
Elsewhere, the Broad Chare in Newcastle picked up the Readers\u2019 Choice Award. \u201cWe all enjoy a little recognition,\u201d said owner Terry Laybourne, \u201cand this one is extra special as it comes directly from our customers \u2014 the people at the very heart of what we do.\u201d<\/p>\n
There is one pub outside Britain on the list, the Red Lion on the Isle of Wight. <\/p>\n
The list, which is a first for the guide, was created in partnership with Timothy Taylor\u2019s Landlord and supported by Tracklements and Koffmann\u2019s Potatoes. The full entries are below, with those in London in bold. <\/p>\n
