A HAMILTON Hill coffee shop is headed to court over an alleged breach of food standards.

Westspeed Enterprises Pty Ltd is alleged to have breached the food standards code at Cuckoo Burgers & Coffee between September 13 and November 11 last year.

The business was charged for failing to store potentially hazardous food under temperature control, failing to ensure eating and drinking utensils were in a clean and sanitary condition and failure to prevent the entry of pests.

WA Health convicted the business for the breach of the food standards code under the Food Act 2008.

The business was convicted on January 10, and ordered to pay a penalty of $20,000 and costs of $1813.

However, the matter is now due to be heard before Fremantle Magistrates’ Court on March 23 and the shop has been removed from the Department of Health’s food offenders list.
