Wetherspoons is a popular pub chain known for its cheap and cheerful food and drinks with a pub in Stroud.

There’s usually a ‘Spoons’ nearby so if you fancy a meal or some drinks when you’re out and about, you don’t have to go far.

But with each restaurant there comes a different standard to cleanliness and hygiene. 

And thanks to the Food Standards Agency (FSA) we get to look out what each of the hygiene ratings is for the different locations.
