Bournemouth restaurants Koh Thai and Chicken & Blues have been crowned winners in two cuisine categories of the 2024 Deliveroo Restaurant Awards.
They beat off stiff competition across South England & Wales after Deliveroo food fans voted for their favourite local establishments.
Chicken & Blues took home the prize for Best Chicken thanks to its BBQ chicken which is marinated in a blend of herbs and spices before being roasted, steamed and then grilled to order.
Koh Thai, which has its flagship restaurant in Bournemouth, won Best Thai in the region for its authentic and flavoursome dishes.
This year saw a total of 60 awards up for grabs.
More than 66,000 votes were cast by loyal customers over a two-week period.
There were 50 regional cuisine-led winners from Best Thai to Best Burger, Best Pizza, Best Chicken and beyond.
Votes were cast across five regions in the UK and Ireland.
Will Shu, Deliveroo Founder and CEO, said: “I say it every year, but the standard of finalists and winners for this year’s Restaurant Awards has been incredible.
“I’ve had the pleasure of meeting a number of restaurant owners to hear about their stories, food, and the positive impact they’ve had on their local communities.
“We are proud to partner with such an incredible array of dedicated restaurants to deliver food from around the world to doorsteps across the UK and Ireland.
“A huge well done to all of this year’s winners.”
