Coffee Corner, located in Friars Walk Shopping Centre, received excellent marks after its inspection on March 31. The café was rated “very good” in all key areas, including hygienic food handling, cleanliness, and food safety management.
Under the Food Hygiene Rating Act 2013, all food businesses in Wales must prominently display their hygiene ratings. These ratings range from zero (urgent improvement needed) to five (excellent standards).
Inspections are conducted by local authority officers and focus on three main areas:
Hygienic food handling: covers food preparation, cooking, reheating, cooling, and storage.
Cleanliness and condition: includes layout, ventilation, handwashing facilities, and pest control.
Management of food safety: evaluates food safety systems, staff knowledge, and confidence in ongoing compliance.
Coffee Corner met all these criteria, demonstrating a strong commitment to maintaining high food hygiene standards. This rating assures customers that the café prioritizes safety and cleanliness.
The café’s current rating is available on the Food Standards Agency website and is updated after each inspection. Businesses may appeal their ratings if they believe them to be incorrect.
A five-star rating, like Coffee Corner’s, signifies “very good” standards as judged by local authorities.
