The Best Cocktail Menu Award is open to all bars across the globe and involves the submission of a current menu and supporting materials.

Each menu will be judged on the following criteria: design and layout; storytelling; innovation; range of drinks; sustainability; communication of the bar’s identity. 

Entries to the award are now open and can be submitted via The World’s 50 Best Bars website. The deadline for entry is Wednesday, 1 September, and a shortlist of the top five entries will be announced on 5 November.
