J D Wetherspoon food hygiene ratings

Questions about J D Wetherspoon

Is J D Wetherspoon clean?
By the only measure a regulator publishes, 100% of J D Wetherspoon branches were found to have very good hygiene standards at their last inspection. But a rating describes a branch, not a brand, though in this case not one branch sits at 2 or below.

Who inspects J D Wetherspoon?
