The inspector found some evidence that staff know about food safety and were generally satisfied with the cleanliness and condition of the facilities in the building, which includes having the proper layout, ventilation, hand washing facilities and pest control.

Food hygiene rating scheme explained

The scheme helps you choose where to eat out or shop for food by giving you clear information about businesses’ hygiene standards. We run the scheme in partnership with local authorities in England, Wales and Northern Ireland.

The scheme gives businesses a rating from 5 to 0 which is displayed at their premises and online so you can make more informed choices about where to buy and eat food.

5 – hygiene standards are very good

4 – hygiene standards are good

3 – hygiene standards are generally satisfactory

2 – some improvement is necessary

1 – major improvement is necessary

0 – urgent improvement is required
