A Wetherspoon pub in Bromsgrove has been recognised in the Good Beer Guide 2025. 

Golden Cross Hotel in High Street is listed in the Campaign for Real Ale's Good Beer Guide which was published on Thursday (September 26). 

The guide is the UK's best-selling beer and pub guide and lists 4,500 of the best pubs in the nation. 

Local branch members chose the Wetherspoon pub following regular visits to check on the quality of the real ales on offer. 

They also took into account the customer service, decor and overall atmosphere of the pub. 

A spokesperson for CAMRA said: "Golden Cross Hotel deserves its place in the Good Beer Guide 2025. 

"It is our belief that if a licensee serves an excellent pint of real ale then everything else in the pub, including customer service, quality of food and atmosphere, are likely to be of an equally high standard."

Jemma Palmer, manager at Golden Cross Hotel, said: "I am delighted that Golden Cross Hotel has been recognised for the quality of its real ales by CAMRA members. 

"We offer our customers an excellent range of real ales at all times including those from regional brewers and microbrewers as well as hosting our own beer festivals. 

"Staff at the pub work hard to ensure that the real ales on offer are kept in first-class condition at all times and the pub's inclusion in the guide highlights this." 

Golden Cross Hotel is one of several pubs across Bromsgrove District and the surrounding areas to be recognised by CAMRA this year.
