A pub in Brighton has been awarded the top rating for its hygiene standards. The Post and Telegraph, in North Street, Brighton, was given a five-star rating by council inspectors as part of the Scores on the Doors programme. The scheme aims to highlight hygiene standards in pubs, restaurants, takeaways, and clubs across the borough.
Inspectors judge outlets on how hygienic and well-managed the food preparation at the premises is, and each business is benchmarked against the same criteria: hygiene, structure, and confidence in management. Pub manager Matthew Scott said: "We are delighted that we have gained the top rating, and I’m sure our customers will welcome the news too. "Standards of hygiene at the pub are of paramount importance.
"All of the staff work hard to ensure that the pub offers its customers the highest levels of hygiene at all times, and we are delighted that our efforts have been recognised with the five-star rating.".
