Bont Big Bocs Bwyd food hygiene rating
School/college/university · Swansea
Bont Big Bocs Bwyd holds a 3: generally satisfactory. The school kitchen met the legal standard, but the inspector recorded enough minor issues that it fell short of a good or very good rating.
The rating: 3 - Generally satisfactory

What the inspector found
