No. 9 By the Harbour food hygiene rating
Restaurant/Cafe/Canteen · Comhairle nan Eilean Siar (Western Isles)
No. 9 By the Harbour passed its most recent food hygiene inspection. Scotland's scheme does not award star ratings, a pass means the restaurant met the legal standard on the day it was inspected.
The rating: Pass
The rating dates from 4 December 2024, 19 months ago. That is getting on for the longest gap councils usually leave, so the score may not reflect how the business is run today.
