Shepherds Hut, Ewelme, is the first pub in the district to win South Oxfordshire District Council’s Healthy Choice Award. The Council presented the pub with the award for its high standards of hygiene and cleanliness in the kitchen, which were above those required by law. Healthier options are available on the menu everyday, and customers can enjoy their meal in a smoke free environment.

The Council has run the Healthy Choice Awards since April 2005 and has given out 44 awards so far to local businesses, such as restaurants, takeaways and schools. The award is designed to promote businesses with excellent standards of food hygiene, which also help to protect the health of staff and customers by having a smoke free environment and offering healthy foods on the menu.

Head of Environmental Services, Clare Kingston, said:

“I am delighted that Chef Andy West and his team at the Shepherds Hut have demonstrated their commitment to customers by ensuring high standards of food safety. The pub has set an excellent example and I hope other small businesses will follow this example and put in the hard work to achieve our award.”
