Go Local/Brinnington Buttie Bar food hygiene rating

Retailers - supermarkets/hypermarkets · Stockport

The rating: 4 - Good

The rating dates from 26 March 2024, 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.
