What the business says

We fully accept the outcome of this report, which has been a wake-up call-in regard keeping our standards more consistent upon when we first opened: There is no excuse to give other that we take full responsibility, we’d like to give thanks to the officers on their important guidance upon getting the work needed for a fast turnaround.

Once again, the Management and Team express deep disappointment with the outcome of the recent inspection. We acknowledge the need for several improvements, for which we take full responsibility. Our team has already implemented most of the necessary changes to restore our ratings.

To our valued customers,

Throughout nearly six years of trading, we have maintained an impeccable record regarding, safety, hygiene, and health standards. We want to assure you that Fitz & Zoe management takes full ownership of the current inspection results and is committed to restoring our services to the highest standards. The necessary work will be completed asap, and we anticipate a revaluation within the coming weeks. Thank you for your continued support and understanding.
