The Mulberry food hygiene rating

Hotel/bed & breakfast/guest house · Waverley

The Mulberry holds a 3: generally satisfactory. The hotel 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

This is a fresh result: The Mulberry was inspected on 29 May 2026, so the rating reflects what the inspector found very recently.

Address: The Mulberry Station Hill, Farnham, GU9 8AD

What the inspector found

An inspection scores three things: how food is handled, the physical condition of the premises, and how much the inspector trusts management to keep standards up. At The Mulberry none of the three raised a concern, the overall rating is only ever as strong as its weakest area, so a clean sweep is what produces a high score.
