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.
Nine Preston eateries faced inspection throughout February and we’ve ranked their most recent ratings from the rating of two stars, meaning improvements are necessary, to three, which means that the business was found to be generally satisfactory.
Four means that the business was found to be generally good and five means the hygiene standards are very good and fully comply with the law.
