Ratings, published on the official Food Standards Agency's website, represent the score given in recent visits to a business or organisation where they are judged on standards of 'hygienic food handling', 'cleanliness and condition of facilities and building' and 'management of food safety'. 

These grades give customers a snapshot of hygiene standards. 

Five is considered 'very good', four 'good', three 'generally satisfactory', two 'some improvement necessary', one 'major improvement necessary' and zero 'urgent improvement required'.

Here are the recent food hygiene ratings for bars, restaurants, cafes and takeaways across Shropshire in the last week.
