LATEST FOOD HYGIENE RATINGS REVEALED – WITH 25 BUSINESSES GIVEN TOP SCORES

From the very good to major improvement necessary — here is a rundown of the latest Isle of Wight restaurants, cafes and other eating establishments to be rated on their food hygiene standards and practices…

Inspections are carried out by the Isle of Wight Council’s environmental health officers on premises that serve, sell or produce food and drink.

They are then ranked across 3 categories — hygenic food handling, cleanliness and condition of facilities and food safety management — to determine how safe and clean they are.
