Twenty 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 September 2022, 20 Warwick businesses have received the highest hygiene ratings.

The businesses are:

  1. The Orangeries at Mid-Counties Co-op
  2. 14-Forty National Grid
  3. Bewiched
  4. BP / Guys Cliffe Simply Fresh
  5. Bread and Co
  6. Castle Wines
  7. Cater Link Ltd at Aylesford Sixth Form
  8. Costcutters
  9. Ming Kee
  10. Park View Care Home
  11. Posh Potatoes
  12. Royal Horse
  13. Saffron Gold
  14. Sainsbury's (Coten End)
  15. Shakespeare Fish Bar
  16. Subway
  17. Unicorn
  18. Two Brothers Bakery
  19. Warwick Tea Rooms
  20. Coffee #1

Educaterers - which provides catering in places of education - has also received five-star ratings at a number of primary schools across the town, including:

  1. All Saints C Of E Junior School
  2. Coten End Primary School
  3. Emscote Infant School
  4. Westgate Primary School

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."
