Hampshire's not on there - shame as I know of 2 retaurants closed down in the past few years - one because of rats & cockroaches - and that restaurant has been replaced with ........
Another restaurant!

I know cockroaches are very difficult to get rid of once they are in the fabric of a building would love to see the score!

Just re-read it. The score is different from the stars....the lower the score means there are less points to be dealt with....the lower the score the more the stars.

Just as well Kay lol.

Thanks TW, Stray will feel better now lol

ha ha Marion.

Kay i suppose that goes for spitting in the chip fat to see if it's ready, takes stars off too lol

LEGAL REQUIREMENTS - Contraventions & Remedial Action
This Council operates a food hygiene enforcement policy. This involves your premises being scored in respect of four parameters relating to Structure, Cleanliness, Temperature Control and Other Practices. The lowest score of 0 means that the premises are generally satisfactory in respect of that parameter, the higher the score the worse the level of non-compliance is deemed to be.

I've had to look - 2 stars is "fair" so that isn't bad. I know the kitchen of a local place that only has 2 stars and it's immaculately kept in my opinion, so I wouldn't worry too much.

Oh, mine must be different then

Nooo 5 stars is top marks, no stars is really bad.

4 stars leaves a few issues to be straightened out, and that could be just one member of staff not having a hygeine cert, or the hot water not working properly.

Stray....your 4 star is bad. The less stars the better.
I read it as 0-5.... 0 being good.

It's not just takeaways this covers, it's also restaurants, pubs, shops and garages selling sandwiches, cafes and food production premises.


Sheila, Swindon is covered in the south west section, so I would imagine the rest of Wilts is too.

Wiltshire isn't on there - but an eye-opener for some of the 'posh' places in Bath!

Thas why I dont have them,,they always look grubby from the outside.,,all the same......wood panelling,counteer and flies in the windows,,:}}}}oh and an old mucky seat to sit on.

I was a builder for many years carrying out remedial works and quite a large amount of my work was in various restaurants, fast food outlets, Indian, Chinese and kebab outlets.

I haven't eaten in an Indian, Chinese restaurant since, and kebabs, wouldn't even give them the time of day.
Some of the English places leave a lot to be desired as well.
I found the kitchens were absolutely disgusting to say the least, and some of the burger and chicken joints weren't too cleaver either.

George.

Sue I really don't want to know as long as it tastes good lol

ohhh my favourite take away got a 4 star lol xxx

I once worked in the prep area of Sainburys if you want to hear some storys

Trust me if we knew everything that goes on we wouldn't eat

OMG just read the summary report, none of the kitchen staff hold a even a basic food hygeine certificate....and they're cooking MY food!!
