Wetherspoon pubs get top loo ratings
A total of 204 Wetherspoon pubs across the UK have received the platinum award – the highest award possible while a
further 96 received the gold award.
The awards are aimed at highlighting and improving standards of ‘away from home’ toilet provision across the UK.
Loo of the Year Awards 2013, managing director, Mike Bone, said: “The unique design, cleanliness and range of facilities at Wetherspoon pubs is a credit to the company and the pub management and staff who keep them in excellent condition.”
Wetherspoon chief executive, John Hutson, added: “The quality and cleanliness of our toilets is important to both us and our customers.
“We are delighted that this has been recognised by the inspectors and that our pubs achieved such high ratings.”
The platinum rating is given only to outlets which offer ‘exceptional toilets.’
Wetherspoon has been shortlisted for a number of national and UK awards which will be announced on Friday December 6.
Authorised inspectors make unannounced visits to hundreds of toilets at outlets across the UK in order to judge them.
