Happy Haddock Shetland Ltd food hygiene rating
Takeaway/sandwich shop · Shetland Islands
Happy Haddock Shetland Ltd was told improvement was required at its most recent inspection. Under Scotland's scheme that means the inspector found the takeaway fell short of the legal standard and expects it to put things right.
The rating: Improvement required
The rating dates from 31 March 2025, 15 months ago. Councils typically re-inspect higher-risk businesses every six months to two years, with well-run, low-risk places visited least often, so this is a normal gap.
