A NUMBER of cafés, pubs, restaurants and takeaways across Dorset and the New Forest have been handed new food hygiene ratings recently.
A New Forest pub which has been told 'major improvement necessary' and a chippy with 'good' hygiene standards are included in this week’s round up.
Each week, the Food Standards Agency (FSA) inspects businesses across the country, assessing hygiene and safety, structural compliance and confidence in management.
What each hygiene rating means:
