Real ale-lovers have named their pub of the year.

The Salmon, in Butt Close Lane, attracted twice as many votes as any other pub in the poll by Leicester members of the Campaign for Real Ale.

The award will be presented to Steve Jackman and June Watson on May 31.

June said: "We're really pleased to win – this is the first time we've won this award."

Camra branch chairman Keith Williams said: "We asked our members to vote for their first, second and third favourite pubs in the city and county and the Salmon was the best in the city.

"It's a very popular pub and specialises in beers from small breweries so it sells a lot that aren't normally available in Leicestershire."

Second was the Sir Robert Peel, in Jarrom Street.

The best pub in the county was the Chandlers Arms, Shearsby.
