What this means

A clean-sheet inspection.

All three axes scored well. Temperature control, cleanliness, and management records all passed inspection. The venue can display a 5-star sticker in its window, and based on this inspection, it earned it.

Classified as a food business. This inspection is fresh, so the picture here should still reflect current practice. Display is voluntary in England, which is why low scorers often skip the window sticker.
