"It was as surprising as it was rewarding to win the 2024 SLTN Industry Achievement Award. We really appreciate being acknowledged for our hard work and ability to navigate an often challenging (but enjoyable) industry over almost two decades. Shout out to the team and the guests who’ve supported us over the years. Without them we wouldn’t have made it this far and maintained the quality we aspired to from the beginning."

Jason Scott, Bramble Bars

co-winner of SLTN Industry Achievement Award 2024
