Small Talk food hygiene rating
Restaurant/Cafe/Canteen · North Ayrshire
Small Talk 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 dates from 30 September 2024, 21 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.
