TWO Llandudno businesses have been handed one-out-of-five ratings by food hygiene inspectors.

Cafe Culture, on Mostyn Street, and fish and chip shop St George’s Plaice, on St George’s Place, both scored poorly following an assessment in October.

At both sites, there was found to be ‘improvement necessary’ regarding hygienic food handling (including preparation, cooking, re-heating, cooling and storage), and the cleanliness and condition of facilities and building to enable good food hygiene.

But both were also told there was ‘major improvement necessary’ in the management of food safety.

This concerns the system or checks in place to ensure that food sold or served is safe to eat, evidence that staff know about food safety, and that the food safety officer had confidence that standards will be maintained in future.

Of Conwy's 275 restaurants, cafes and canteens with ratings, 227 (83 per cent) have five-star ratings and none have zero.
