New food hygiene ratings have been awarded to two of South Tyneside’s restaurants, cafes or canteens, the Food Standards Agency’s website shows – and it’s good news for them both.

McDonalds, at Abingdon Way, Boldon Colliery, Tyne & Wear was handed a five-out-of-five rating after assessment on May 18.

And Hillhead Farm Shop & Tea Room, at Lizard Lane, Whitburn, Tyne & Wear was also given a score of five on April 27.

It means that of South Tyneside's 173 restaurants, cafes and canteens with ratings, 113 (65%) have ratings of five and none have zero ratings.
