Seeing stars at The Brightwell Café!

We’re delighted to announce that we have retained our 5-star Food Hygiene rating! The Brightwell Café has become a wonderful addition for everyone who visits the Centre, whether they are visiting for therapies, attending events or just meeting up with friends and family. The café offers a range of hot and cold drinks, snacks and meals, including a range of daily and seasonal specials.

We had an unannounced visit from South Gloucestershire Council on Thursday, 19 February and following their inspection, they were pleased to re-award The Brightwell Café the 5-star Food Hygiene rating.

A food hygiene rating tells consumers about the hygiene standards of a food premises to help them choose where to eat or shop for food. During an inspection, the food safety officer checks how well businesses are meeting the law by looking at: 

• The handling of food

• The handling of food

• How food is stored

• How food is prepared

• Cleanliness of facilities

• How food safety is managed

  
  

The scheme gives food premises a rating from 0 to 5, where 5 shows hygiene standards are very good, and 0 shows urgent improvements are required.

We’re so pleased that The Brightwell Café has retained the maximum 5-star rating and that all the care and attention to preparing food taken by the café team has been officially recognised once again! Congratulations to Paula and her lovely café volunteers!

We hope you visit the Brightwell Café soon – look out for some special Spring and Easter treats and new items on the menu in the coming weeks!
