A CITY pub had been handed a new food hygiene rating. 

The Worcester Arms, on London Road, was awarded a four-out-of-five food hygiene rating according to the Food Standards Agency website. 

It received the score after an inspection at the watering hole on August 1.

This means out of Worcester's 54 pubs, bars, and nightclubs with ratings, 41 have five-star ratings, and none have zero ratings.

The Food Hygiene Rating Scheme rates eateries out of five based on food handling, management of food safety and cleanliness of the facilities.
