The Michelin Guide Awards took place on Monday February 5, and the best chefs from Great Britain and Ireland gathered to see which restaurants would be given the ultimate accolade of a Michelin Star.

The event was held in Manchester and saw the announcement of not just the renowned Michelin Stars, but also Green stars recognising restaurants leading in the industry for their commitment to sustainable practices - and a range of Special Awards celebrating outstanding professionals.

Eighteen restaurants were awarded one Michelin star status, six were given two stars and one three stars - meaning 25 dining venues around Great Britain and Ireland were given the prestigious accolades.
