New food hygiene ratings have been awarded to 11 of Southend’s establishments this month.
We have taken a look at the latest ratings to see how restaurants, takeaways and other establishments which sell food have fared.
What do the numbers mean?
0 - urgent improvement necessary
1 - major improvements necessary
2 - improvements necessary
3 - business generally satisfactory
4 - business good on assessment
5 - business seen as very good
Each restaurant is also judged on three categories ‘food hygiene and safety’, ‘structural compliance’ and ‘confidence in management’.
Each section is awarded a mark from ‘very good’ to ‘very bad’ and for ‘confidence in management’ from ‘high’ to ‘no confidence’.
