New hygiene ratings have been issued for businesses around the county

The Food Standards Agency, along with local councils, has given out ratings to a new batch of restaurants, pubs, cafes and takeaways across the county.

Ratings reveal marks given out in recent visits to the food places, where they are judged on their standards of 'hygienic food handling', 'cleanliness and condition of facilities and building' and 'management of food safety'.

The ratings provide customers with a snapshot of hygiene standards. Five is considered ‘very good, four ‘good’, three ‘generally satisfactory’, two ‘some improvement necessary’, one ‘major improvement necessary’ and zero ‘urgent improvement required’.

Out of the 25 businesses inspected recently, 16 have come out with top marks while three have a rating of four and six others have scored a three. None have score between zero and two.
