How the Votes Are Calculated – British Kebab Awards

At the British Kebab Awards, we take pride in ensuring a fair, transparent, and inclusive voting process. We have always maintained clarity in how the winners are determined, and we will continue to uphold this transparency.

The Voting Criteria

The final results are based on a combination of the following factors:

1. Public Votes – Supporters, customers, and local communities have the opportunity to vote for their favorite restaurants, chefs, and takeaways.
2. Google Ratings – We consider Google reviews and ratings, which reflect customer satisfaction and service quality.
3. TripAdvisor Ratings – If available, we include ratings and reviews from TripAdvisor to gauge wider customer feedback.
4. Hygiene Ratings – Food safety and hygiene standards play a role in the overall evaluation.
5. Jury Panel – A panel of expert judges reviews the nominations, considering food quality, service, and overall excellence.
6. Endorsements from MPs & Councillors – Support from local MPs, councillors, and community leaders is taken into account as a recognition of establishments that contribute positively to their communities.
7. Verification of Bot Votes – To maintain fairness, we conduct thorough checks to detect and remove any bot-generated or duplicate votes.

Commitment to Fairness

We have carefully examined the voting patterns and have eliminated any suspicious activity to ensure genuine results. Every vote counts, but only authentic votes are considered.
