    The UK's top 'man caves' are battling it out in the final of Pub Shed of the Year 2023 with a fire station-themed pub and a traditional Irish-style bar among those vying for the title.<\/p>\n

    Three fantastic garden pubs have been selected by judges for this year's final, chosen from over a thousand entries. Among them is an Only Fools & Horses tribute called the Nags Shed in Staffordshire, which features a Trotters Independent Trading retro arcade machine.<\/p>\n

    The Engine House in Hampshire is also in the running for the crown after being modelled on a fire station. A retired firefighter is behind it and even serves its own home-brewed fire service named beers.<\/p>\n

    These three incredible pub sheds will now compete to be crowned the winner of this year's national contest on November 11, following last years winner John Simmons and his pub shed, The Dog & Ball in Horndean.<\/p>\n

    Former firefighter Kevin Francis built the Engine House in 2017 after his wife told him to clear out the memorabilia he had stored in his loft.<\/p>\n
