If you wish to see the food safety officer’s report on which this rating is based, you can request this from the local authority that carried out the inspection. You can do this by sending an email to the address below. In some cases, the local authority may decide that they cannot send you a copy of the report but will let you know this and explain why.

What the business says

The current food hygiene rating reflects the conditions identified at the time of the inspection. Since that inspection, we have taken the matter very seriously and have implemented a comprehensive programme of corrective actions and improvements across the premises.

We remain fully committed to maintaining the highest standards of food hygiene, food safety, cleanliness and management. The improvements have been undertaken with the aim of ensuring that our standards consistently meet and exceed the required requirements.

A formal application for a re-rating inspection has been submitted to the Environmental Health Authority, and we are awaiting the opportunity for the premises to be reassessed.

We respectfully ask customers to recognise that the published rating represents the position at the time of the previous inspection and does not reflect the improvements subsequently made.

We thank our customers for their continued support and assure them that food safety and the wellbeing of our customers remain our highest priorities

About comments made by the business

A business has the right to reply to its local authority about the food hygiene rating given. This means a business may draw attention to improvements made since the inspection and/or explain particular circumstances at the time of inspection that might have affected the rating the business was given. The comments made by the business have been reviewed and may have been edited by a local authority food safety officer so they fit the terms and conditions of this website but the accuracy of any statements made has not been verified.
