Popular Doncaster restaurant ordered to improve after one star food hygiene rating

The Olive Bar and Grill in Barnby Dun was given the one star rating following a visit by inspectors from the Food Standards Agency in October.

Bosses at the Station Road venue were told improvements were needed in hygenic food handling, cleanliness and condition of the facilities and building and that major improvements were needed in food safety management.

Here’s what the report said:

Hygienic food handling

Hygienic handling of food including preparation, cooking, re-heating, cooling and storage – improvement necessary

Cleanliness and condition of facilities and building

Cleanliness and condition of facilities and building (including having appropriate layout, ventilation, hand washing facilities and pest control) to enable good food hygiene – improvement necessary

Management of food safety

System or checks in place to ensure that food sold or served is safe to eat, evidence that staff know about food safety, and the food safety officer has confidence that standards will be maintained in future – major improvement necessary.

It is the latest popular Doncaster restaurant to have been given a zero or one star food hygiene rating.

Earlier this year, Armthorpe’s Elachi was rated zero after an inspection – but has now been regraded to five stars after bosses worked alongside Doncaster Council to carry out improvements.

The Lotus at Warmsworth was also given a zero star rating but has also been upgraded to a four star rating after a second visit.
