Le Petit Prince Patisserie food hygiene rating

Restaurant/Cafe/Canteen · Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole

Le Petit Prince Patisserie holds a 5, the highest food hygiene rating there is. At its last inspection the restaurant met every standard the inspector checked, with nothing needing attention.

The rating: 5 - Very good

The rating dates from 6 September 2023, more than 2 years ago. A lot can change in a kitchen in that time, and a rating this old says more about the business then than now. Councils prioritise re-inspecting higher-risk premises, so a long gap often means the business is considered low-risk.
