John Lamont MP has launched a new competition to crown the best Borders pubs.
Borders residents have been encouraged to get involved and help recognise the local hospitality venues that provide excellent service.
Nominations can be made at the following link: https://www.johnlamont.org/localpubawards.
The Scottish Borders MP regularly runs competitions to celebrate local businesses, including his annual pub awards.
After last year's public vote, Borders MP John Lamont gave out awards to the Cutty Sark Inn in Eyemouth, The Plough Hotel in Yetholm and The Office Bar in Hawick.
Scottish Borders MP John Lamont said: "The Scottish Borders has some of the best pubs the country has to offer.
"Our pubs support hundreds of jobs, contribute to the economy and are at the heart of our local communities.
"To celebrate the brilliant hospitality they provide all year round, I'm once again holding my local pub awards.
"I believe it's important that we recognise hardworking staff and small business owners who deliver excellent service.
"So please nominate your favourite venues and ask your friends and family to do the same."
