Good food, hygiene's had some notes. Probably fine.

The food's genuinely great and the hygiene issues are "Improvement Necessary" — not catastrophic. Worth a punt if you're not a germaphobe.

Gamble on great food, but hygiene is risky.

Tickled Trout Bar and Bistro has this charming vibe that makes you think it's worth the risk, but let's address the elephant in the room: the hygiene rating is a bit of a mess. However, the food is apparently extraordinary, with dishes that have diners gushing about their exquisite flavors and presentation. If you can brave the hygiene red flags, the pork and pies are apparently a must-try, and even the desserts have folks coming back for more.

So, if you're feeling adventurous and don’t mind playing a little roulette with your stomach, this place could be your next culinary thrill ride. Just remember, it's all about the food here, and if you’re lucky, you might just hit the jackpot. 🍽️🎲
