Five-star ratings make eating out more satisfying

ANOTHER 13 food businesses recently inspected by Rushmoor Borough Council’s environmental health officers (EHOs) have received the highest ‘5 - very good’ food hygiene ratings.

- 

The borough council said it regularly inspects every food business in Aldershot and Farnborough according to a national risk rating scheme, which sets how often each business is visited.

Each inspection results in a food hygiene rating from ‘zero - urgent improvement necessary’ to ‘5 - very good, which the business can choose to display.

As well as celebrating those that score the maximum ratings, environmental health officers also support businesses that record lower hygiene ratings to consistently raise standards.

According to the borough council, 96% of Rushmoor's food businesses currently have a rating of ‘3 - satisfactory, ‘4 - good’ or ‘5 - very good’.
