The scores are in — the latest batch of food hygiene ratings for the Isle of Wight restaurants, cafés, takeaways and businesses have been revealed.

Environmental health officers from the Isle of Wight have been busy visiting businesses across the Island to see if they are meeting hygiene requirements.

Based on guidelines set by the Food Standards Agency, inspectors look to see how clean the facilities are; what food safety management procedures are in place and how hygienic food handling is.

Ratings are then dished out from five to zero — with the higher score, the better the result.

The following businesses have been rated five - 'very good' with results published in the last fortnight:

Japanese Cuisine By Y Davison (private address, PO33 postcode), rated 5 on Monday, February 10.

Lagom Coffee Limited at Sherbourne House, Sherbourne Street, Bembridge, rated 5 on Saturday, February 8.

Mother Clucker (private address, PO36 postcode), rated 5 on Saturday, February 15.

The Elms Nursing Home at The Elms Residential Home, Swains Road, rated 5 on Saturday, February 8.

W W Woodford & Son, 26 High Street, Bembridge, rated 5 on Friday, February 14.
