‘Mouldy’ food and pests land pub with one-star hygiene rating
A Kent pub received a one-star food-hygiene rating after environmental health inspectors discovered a range of food-hygiene offences.
The inspector’s report said the Spread Eagle’s meat refrigerator, housed in the external shed, was dirty, chopping boards were too scored to be effectively cleaned and sealant had built up on the floor of the kitchen, preventing effective cleaning.
A spokesperson for the pub in Hawkenbury, Tunbridge Wells, told The Morning Advertiser that all legal requirements made by inspectors had been addressed ahead of re-inspection in April this year.
