Bingham pub achieves platinum in Loo of the Year Awards

A pub has again won acclaim for the quality and standard of its toilets.

The Butter Cross in Market Place, Bingham, has been awarded a platinum rating in the Loo of the Year Awards 2021.

The awards are aimed at highlighting and improving standards of away from home toilet provision across the UK.

The Wetherspoon pub is managed by Sam Hyde, who said: “Staff at the pub ensure the toilets are in excellent condition at all times and it is great that this has been recognised by the inspectors.”

Loo of the Year Awards inspectors made unannounced visits to thousands of toilets in order to judge them.

All of the toilets are graded silver, gold, platinum or diamond with unacceptable toilets not graded at all.

The toilets are judged against numerous criteria, including décor and maintenance, cleanliness, accessibility, hand washing and drying equipment and overall management.

The Loo of the Year Awards 2021 managing director, Becky Wall, said: “The toilets at The Butter Cross have been designed and fitted out to a very high standard and are both clean and well maintained.”
