The Isle of Wight’s food hygiene inspectors were busy in the run-up to Christmas, dishing out ratings for cafes, restaurants and pubs.. Based on Food Standards Agency guidance, inspectors judge how clean food businesses are, what conditions are like, how hygienic the food handling is and what food safety management procedures are in place. They are then given a rating between zero and five, where five is the best. Here are the latest results … 5 – Very Good Off The Rails, Yarmouth Pickle and Dill, Ryde Smoking Lobster at Foresters Hall, Cowes Rainbow Fish Bar, Freshwater Foresters Hall, Cowes Caffe Isola, Newport Harvey Browns, Arreton The Coffee Room Skintrade, Newport The Blue Door Café, Newport Love Coffee, Newport The Waverley Pub, Carisbrooke Grange Bank House, Shanklin The Eight Bells, Carisbrooke The Bargemans Rest, Newport Shanklin Theatre French Franks, Newport (Monks Brook) Phoenix Knights Cafe, Gurnard The Beach Cafe, Sandown Peach Vegan Kitchen, Newport CGs Cafe, Newport Forest View Nursery, Newport Duo Baguettes, Freshwater Baked by Jen, Cowes New China House, Ventnor Farmhouse Fayre, Newport Royal British Legion Social Club Ventnor Naturezones Wildlife Education Trust, Newport Carisbrooke Priory Trust East Side Kitchen (Mobile Caterers) AJ and Boo (Mobile Caterers) Eat Street IOW Tipsy Wight Freshwater Bay House IOW Indoor Bowls Club, Ryde Westview House, Totland The Little Gloster (Catering facility) McDonalds, Ryde McDonalds, Newport Lidl, Newport Poundland, Ryde Man In The Moon, Wetherspoons, Newport Dunelm Mill Cafe, Newport Osborne Masonic Club, East Cowes Cowes Primary School Barton Primary Breakfast and After School Club Gatten and Lake Primary School — Compass Newchurch Primary School — Compass Wroxall Primary School — Compass St Saviours Catholic Primary School — Compass Arreton St Georges CE Primary School – Compass Medina House School — Compass Niton Primary School – Compass Parsons Pantry – Brenda Hall and Jillian Timbrell Wild Oak Farm IOW Egg Packing Centre, Havenstreet Isle of Wight Cheese Company Production Facility, Newchurch APS Produce, Hale Common

It’s good all the establishments are being kept an eye on and ratings published.
im sure well hopefully establishments will up their game as naming and shaming is not good for business in any way or form, but is the only way forward .
How does Lidl Newport get very good award . No café restaurant… makes it all pointless
Deli/cheese counter. Fresh vegetables? Anywhere that sells food should be checked for cleanliness etc?
