The Nook’s food hygiene rating

The Nook's rating is 11 years old. Councils schedule inspections by risk, so a well-run pub can go several years between visits, but a rating this old describes the pub as it was on the day of the inspection.

We have checked The Nook's entry on the register 3 times since 27 July 2026 and the rating has not changed.

The score covers how food is handled and stored, the state of the building, and how the business manages food safety. It says nothing about the beer, the food’s taste or the welcome. How ratings work on this site.
