Isle of Wight pub, The Taverners in Godshill, is on a list of nearly 100 venues across the UK to be named by the National Pub and Bar Awards 2022.
The 17th century pub is already a county winner, but it will now be in the running for one of five regional awards and the overall National Pub and Bar of the Year.
An awards ceremony will take place in June.
Tristan O’Hana, editor of Pub & Bar magazine, which hosts the event, said: "Just from being out in these venues, you can see how much pubs and bars mean to people across the UK.
"With visitor numbers increasing, it’s more important than ever for operators to deliver a standout service during every visit – no matter the business in question.
"These 94 County Winners are wonderful examples of the brilliance of today’s modern on-trade. If you live near one of these sites, make sure you pay them a visit!"
