NINETEEN food outlets in Bolton currently have a zero rating for food hygiene — meaning urgent improvement is necessary.

There are also 100 outlets that have been slapped with the second lowest rating, a level one for food hygiene — with the Food Standards Agency stating that “major” improvement is required.

But there is some good news for Bolton food fans, with 809 of Bolton’s 2,176 food outlets achieving the top rating of five for food hygiene after inspectors visited their businesses.

The figures come from the ‘Scores on the Doors’ website, which was introduced nationally in 2011 and displays the results of inspections by council environmental health officials.

There are a number of outlets across the borough that are either exempt from inspection or are currently awaiting inspection — so the results could be set to change soon.

In Bolton, it is the BL3 post code that has the biggest number of zero-rated food businesses — with seven falling within the area.

There are five of the lowest rated outlets in the BL1 post code, three in BL2 and BL4 and just one in the BL6 area.

The lists below are based on inspections that appear on the national Scores on the Doors website following council inspections.

Visits from the authority occur at different times and some businesses may be waiting on upcoming inspections. Some may have changed management or closed in the interim. We will update our list in the coming months.
