A pub has received the lowest food hygiene rating.
The Half Moon Inn in Valentines Hill, Northchapel, near Petworth, received the zero-out-of-five score following a food hygiene and safety inspection on September 11, the Food Standards Agency website shows.
Inspectors noted major improvement was necessary in the assessment categories of food handling and the cleanliness and condition of facilities and the building, including pest control and having appropriate layout, ventilation and handwashing facilities.
In the management of food safety, the pub was told urgent improvement was necessary.
This included the systems or checks in place to ensure that food sold or served is safe to eat, the food safety officer’s confidence that standards will be maintained in the future and evidence that staff know about food safety.
The hygiene rating reflects the business's current standards, but it can request a reinspection.
