Popular social hub The Ark, Glasgow, recently won the coveted title of ‘Best Place to Watch the Match’ at the Scottish Licensed Trade News Awards thanks to its incredible game day presence.

The Ark was nominated by Scottish Licensed Trade News for best place to watch the match due to its unrivalled atmosphere and quality pints. After nomination, team members from Sky Sports Business – sponsors of the SLTN Awards – made a surprise visit to the venue, where Deputy Manager Jamie gave the team an extensive tour, showing them the array of HD TV’s the pub has installed so that customers never have to miss a game. Alongside this, Jamie also provided the team with facts and figures of just how much customers enjoy the pub on matchdays through the record profits taken with an 47% increase in profits this year alone.

Thanks to 18 indoor HD TV screens and 7 outdoor screens, The Ark isn’t short of places for eager punters to catch all the latest sporting action whilst indulging in a refreshing drink from the extensively stocked bar.

At the glamorous awards ceremony, the team at The Ark were up against 2 other incredible pubs across the region, and were ultimately crowned ‘Best place to watch the match’. The judges credited General Manager Matthew Tyre and Deputy Manager Jamie Amrani for their unmatched knowledge of the pub, customer satisfaction levels and unique Social Media presence (particularly Instagram where they regularly post about sports fixtures) along with the vast array of sports shown, including Football, Rugby, Boxing, NFL and much more.

General Manager Matthew Tyre said: “We’re extremely grateful and honoured to have won this prestigious award. As a pub, we constantly strive to bring the best customer experience possible, and this award recognises our ongoing efforts. I owe a big thank you to Jamie for all his hard work that has contributed towards our win, as well as the rest of the team who always deliver quality service to every customer that walks through the door.”
