Cockenzie Newsagent food hygiene rating

Retailers - other · East Lothian

Cockenzie Newsagent was told improvement was required at its most recent inspection. Under Scotland's scheme that means the inspector found the shop fell short of the legal standard and expects it to put things right.

The rating: Improvement required

The rating dates from 19 October 2018, more than 7 years ago. A lot can change in a kitchen in that time, and a rating this old says more about the business then than now. Councils prioritise re-inspecting higher-risk premises, so a long gap often means the business is considered low-risk.
