Pub-goers from Woolgoolga to Nyngan are waiting to see if their local will take out the People’s Choice award at this year’s AHA NSW Awards for Excellence.

First introduced in 2022, the ‘People’s Choice’ is the only category that allows members of the community the chance to get behind their favourite pub by voting it best in the state and thousands have done so.

The state’s most beloved watering hole will be crowned at a gala awards event on Tuesday, 29 October at Royal Randwick Racecourse.

AHA NSW CEO John Whelan said it was great to see patrons getting behind their local pubs and making their vote count.

“This category has proved incredibly popular – because people are extremely passionate about their local pub,” Mr Whelan said.

“It really is a chance to let the rest of NSW know your pub is the best of the best.”

The top 10 ‘people’s choice’ for 2024 are:
Cooee Hotel – St Georges Basin
Gerogery Hotel – Gerogery
Hotel Mosman – Mosman
Hunters Hill Hotel – Hunters Hill
Lord Gladstone Hotel – Chippendale
Nelson Hotel – Bondi Junction
Seaview Tavern – Woolgoolga
Terrigal Beach House – Terrigal
The Lakes Hotel – The Entrance
The Nyngan Hotel – Nyngan

The popular Bogan Gate Hotel, just outside of Parkes, won the award last year.
