Reporting a Pub for breach of Hygiene?

doodoot

Hi guys, sorry if this in the wrong place but I couldn't decide where I should post it.

I know of a pub that sells food cooked on the premises which does not adhere to health and hygiene.

None of the kitchen staff have any qualifications, specifically food handling/hygiene.

Which is the best agency to report this to?

Thanks in advance, and sorry to the board guides if it needs moving.

Local council environmental health.

Food standards agency?

Or just eat elsewhere / write a letter of complaint to HQ ?

So why have you got the kife out for them?

I cook most days and the family seem to survive without me having any qualifications!

i imagine the OP used to work there and has since left under bad terms (or someone they know has). I don't see any other way that they would know about the qualifications of the catering staff.

Sounds like he/she got the sack and wants revenge.

No, I haven't worked there. :rotfl:

I overheard the landlord 'bragging' about the lack of training/qualifications for him and the other guy who works in the kitchen.

And Hintza, cooking for your family and cooking for the public in return for money are 2 very different things...at least they are in my book.

Thanks to those who gave constructive replies.

Do kitchen staff have to have qualifications?!

If not, what is the problem?

So you have no proof except for a bit of hearsay

You'd hope they at least possessed a basic hygiene certificate.
