'This mark does not reflect our business'- Chesterfield sandwich shop contest one star food hygiene rating
Top Shop in Calow said it had rescheduled a re-visit with inspectors after receiving the 'disappointing' one star mark from the Food Standards Agency.
A spokesperson for the shop argued that the rating was down to an issue with documentation and the fact senior staff members were not present at the time of the initial visit.

"I'd like to reassure our customers that our hygiene is of a good standard and that this has never happened before.
"Of course we can identify improvements we could make- but these are to do with staff training, rather than hygiene.
"I have worked in restaurants and the food trade all my life. I know what I'm doing and I can tell you that this mark does not reflect the shop in any way."
