Fifteen Warwick eateries have been given five-star food hygiene ratings in the past two months by the Food Standards Agency.

Working in partnership with local authorities, the FSA scheme gives businesses a rating from zero to five.

A five-star review means the venue's hygiene standards are very good and fully comply with the law.

To get the top rating, businesses must do well in all three elements of an inspection.

This includes how hygienically the food is handled, the physical condition of the business and how the business manages ways of keeping food safe through training and processes.

If the top rating is not given, the inspection officer will explain to the business what needs to change.

Since the start of November 2022, 15 Warwick businesses have received the highest hygiene ratings.

The businesses are:

  1. Royal Horse
  2. The Saxon Mill
  3. Thomas Oken Tea Rooms
  4. Warwick Conservative Club
  5. Warwick Spice
  6. Wylies Cafe Tearooms & Food Emporium
  7. Adventure Sports
  8. McDonalds - Emscote Road
  9. The Old Post Office
  10. Woodloes Fish Bar
  11. Boots
  12. Domino's Pizza
  13. Fade Golf UK
  14. Gap Community Centre
  15. Harbury Catch

Local councils decide how regularly local businesses are inspected with gaps between visits varying from six months to over two years.

Those that "pose a higher risk" to public health are inspected more frequently.

But with the number of inspections declining during the pandemic FSA Chair, Prof Susan Jebb, said: "Even though there are signs of improvement, particularly on hygiene inspections, local authorities continue to face resourcing constraints which could affect progress.

"We, along with our partners in government, must all make sure that the current challenges in the food system are resolved in a way that puts us on course for a safe, healthier and more sustainable future food system."
