Restaurant/Cafe/Canteen · Midlothian
St.James The Less Church has no published result under Scotland's food hygiene scheme yet.
The rating: Exempt
The rating dates from 5 April 2019, 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.
