How rankings work
Measured, not guessed.
“Most viewed” means most viewed on Ormskirk After Dark. It is not a claim about a venue’s turnover, footfall or overall commercial performance.
Monthly ranking
Bar and restaurant leaders are based on engagement with venue content recorded by Ormskirk After Dark during the stated month.
- Only comparable venue engagement is used for the monthly ranking.
- We wait for a meaningful sample before naming a winner.
- Editorial “Best for…” awards are clearly separate from data rankings.
- People’s Choice will be identified as a public vote when voting launches.
