National Food Awards 2023: All of the Yorkshire winners at National Food Awards 2023 including Chef Jono at V & V
The ceremony was held in Birmingham on October 9 and saw several Yorkshire establishments scoop awards for their food, from good old fish and chips on the coast to fine dining in Leeds.
The winners were selected based on the votes of the public, who nominated their favourite establishments across various categories, including Restaurant of the Year, Gastro Pub of the Year, Fine Dining Restaurant of the Year and Best Street Food.
