The Oliver Awards were launched in 2008 and aim to showcase talent from Leeds’ diverse and vibrant hospitality sector. This year marked the 14th edition of the awards and winners were announced last night (March 20).
Awards were dished out at a glitzy ceremony at Headingley Stadium, before guests enjoyed an afterparty at Green Room in the city centre. The full list of winners can be viewed on the Yorkshire Evening Post website.
