What the results mean

A pass means the inspector found no infractions or only minor ones. A conditional pass means significant infractions were found and the inspector comes back to check they are fixed. A closure order is issued when an infraction is a health hazard; the business stays closed until a re-inspection shows it is fixed.

Infractions on record across these inspections: 1 crucial, 4 significant, 3 minor.
