TEN pubs have made the shortlist of the Pub of the Year 2024 competition.

Whether you're enjoying a pint after work, or spending time with the family - nothing beats a trip to your favourite local. 

The Hampshire Chronicle and Romsey Advertiser are looking to crown the best boozer in the area with our new competition. 

Hundreds of nominations were sent in by readers and those with the most votes have now made our shortlist.

Readers are being asked to show their support for their favourite by cutting out the voting slip available in this week's Hampshire Chronicle or Romsey Advertiser and returning by June 16. 

The pub with the most votes will be crowned the winner. 

Editor Kimberley Barber said: "All the pubs shortlisted have proved they are at the very heart of their communities. Now it's up to our readers to show which one is the best. Good luck to everyone!"
