The Good Food Guide Needs You!
The Good Food Guide has launched its annual search for the nation’s favourite local restaurants. Our diner-nominated Best Local Restaurant awards celebrate the brilliant contribution that neighbourhood restaurants make to our communities.
Our Dining Out survey revealed that 22% of diners choose a local restaurant in order to support the local community, with 40% enjoying the point of difference that a local, independent restaurant can offer when compared with a large chain.
If you want to recognise your local, neighbourhood restaurant in our awards, then nominate from 8 November – and be in with a chance of winning £500 worth of Waitrose vouchers.
