Guide categorisations
Pubs receive a categorisation according to the findings of a GPG inspection. In order of the highest rating first, they are:
- Approved, a pub which has been fully inspected by GPG staff and has attained the highest standard.
- Recommended, a pub which has been fully inspected by GPG staff and has attained a high standard.
- Luck Dip, a pub which has been recommended for inclusion by several readers, but has not yet been assessed by GPG staff. [3]
