Congratulations to The Waverley Bar and Artisan Restaurant

  • Submitted by: Clare Adamson, Motherwell and Wishaw, Scottish National Party.
  • Date lodged: Monday, 22 August 2022
  • Motion reference: S6M-05684

That the Parliament congratulates two Wishaw businesses for making it to the final of the 2022 Scottish Bar and Pub Awards; notes that The Waverley Bar, which, it understands, re-opened less than 12 months ago under the new ownership of David and Frances Smith, has established the bar once more as a popular public house, named as one of four finalists for the coveted, Sunday Mail Pub of the Year Award; understands that Derek Mather from Artisan Restaurant, has been nominated for the second year running as Whisky Guru of the Year Award; further understands that the final award ceremony will be held at a glitzy awards event within The Doubletree hotel in Glasgow on 30 August 2022; acknowledges what it sees as the resilience, strength and determination of an industry that has faced many difficult challenges over the COVID-19 pandemic period and applauds those who have strived to deliver high standards of excellence; recognises the hard work of the staff, and extends very best wishes to both businesses in the competition.
