The Good Beer Guide 2025: Coronation Street Edition

The Campaign for Real Ale's (CAMRA) Good Beer Guide - the UK's best-selling beer and pub guide - is celebrating its 52nd edition with not one but two covers featuring two of the UK's favourite locals: Coronation Street's Rovers Return Inn, and Emmerdale's Woolpack. The Guide, which surveys 4,500 of the best pubs across the UK, is the definitive beer drinker's guide for those seeking the best pints in the nation's pubs. The Good Beer Guide 2025 is available for pre-order now.

The Rovers Return Inn and the Woolpack represent the familiarity and community spirit of pubs across the UK. This edition of the Guide pays tribute to the communities that are beamed into homes, providing entertainment and companionship to those that may not have a local pub of their own. Research commissioned by CAMRA found that people who have a local rate themselves as significantly happier because of it, and have more close friends, and the pubs on television reflect this feeling. Some of Coronation Street's and Emmerdale's most iconic, touching and memorable moments have taken place in their respective pubs.
