NEW food hygiene ratings have been awarded to two Stourbridge takeaways, the Food Standards Agency’s website shows.

No 1 Pizza in Lower High Street, Stourbridge, has been given a rating of three after assessment on January 16.

Kylin Garden in High Street, Lye, Stourbridge, was handed a rating of two on January 16.

The ratings have been published on the Food Standards Agency’s website which rates businesses from zero to five so customers can make more informed choices about where to buy and eat food.

A rating of five means hygiene standards are very good, four means hygiene standards are good, three means hygiene standards are generally satisfactory, two means some improvement is necessary, a rating of one means major improvement is necessary and a rating of zero means urgent improvement is required.

People can see the results of all food hygiene inspections via Dudley Council’s website or on the national ratings.food.gov.uk website.
