A one star rating means “major improvement is necessary”.
Inspectors look at areas such as hygienic food handling, cleanliness and condition of facilities and building, along with management of food safety, when giving a rating.
There are no zero star venues where “urgent i mprovement is required”.
These are the cafés, takeaways, pubs, shops and other places awarded one star.
