A FISH AND CHIP restaurant in Cirencester has been recognised in a collection of prestigious travel awards.

Malt & Anchor in Castle Street has been included in the Tripadvisor Travelers’ Choice Awards for 2024.

The accolades honour travellers' favourite restaurants, hotels, things to do and more based on opinions and reviews collected from travellers and diners on the platform across a year.

Winners are determined based on the quality and amount of traveller ratings and reviews posted on Tripadvisor over the 12-month timeframe.

To be able to receive an accolade, a location must have been listed on Tripadvisor for at least a year, gain a threshold number of reviews within the evaluation period of the award and maintain or exceed a minimum bubble rating.

Dan Lafford, director of Malt & Anchor, said: “We are thrilled to have won the Tripadvisor Travelers’ Choice Award.

“This achievement wouldn’t have been possible without our amazing staff and loyal customers.

“To our staff, thank you for your hard work and dedication. Your passion makes all the difference.

“To our customers, we're deeply grateful for your support and kind reviews. This award is a testament to you.”

“Congratulations to Malt and Anchor on its recognition in Tripadvisor’s Travelers’ Choice Awards for 2024,” said John Boris, chief growth officer at Tripadvisor.

“Travelers’ Choice honours businesses that consistently demonstrate a commitment to hospitality excellence.

“This means the restaurant has made such a memorable impact on visitors that many of them took the time to go online and leave a great review about their experience.

“People rely on Tripadvisor’s Travelers’ Choice seal to help them navigate the myriad of things to see, eat and do across the globe.

“We hope this recognition continues to drive business to the restaurant in 2024 and beyond.”
