A spokesperson for AA Hospitality said: “The Pot Still, like many pubs in Glasgow, offers Whisky but there aren’t many that boast over seven hundred. Add to this their range of Scottish and German ales which you can enjoy with a one of Pot Stills ‘proper pies’ they serve makes it a must to any whisky lover when in Glasgow’s theatre land.
“The team are passionate about their whiskies and gain satisfaction from matching customers to the appropriate whisky from the extensive selection.”
Speaking about the award win, director Geraldine Murphy said: “We are absolutely delighted to be honoured with such a prestigious award. We would like to thank our staff for all their hard work and the AA for their support.
“There are so many amazing pubs in Scotland and to be picked ahead of them is incredible. We’ve been getting a lot of recognition outside of Scotland so to be awarded this by a UK wide competition is amazing.”
