Environmental health officers from Sheffield City Council visited the venue to score it on three key areas, and it was found to pass all sections with flying colours, landing it with an overall score of four-out-of-five.
For food hygiene and safety, which includes food handling practices and procedures, and temperature control, the venue scored ‘generally satisfactory’.
