A burger joint called ‘Bad Burgers and Dirty Dogs’ has closed down after it received  a one-star hygiene rating.
Midlands Events, who owned and managed the outlet based in Rhyl’s Queen’s Market, say they decided to close it after receiving the low hygiene rating, after a  Denbighshire County Council inspection.
Midlands Events,  which also runs Go Greek in the Queen’s Market, has now started a new venture called “Go Burgers”.
Midlands Events’ operations manager, Dylan Evans, said:  “Obviously, we were disappointed with the hygiene score after the hygiene inspection for Bad Burgers.
“They no longer exist. They are no longer trading here. We have moved them on, and we have got a new establishment called Go Burgers that has taken over the kitchen.
He added: “It is a brand-new venture. And we look forward to the inspection from the (council’s) food and hygiene inspectors.”
Mr Evans said Bad Burgers and Dirty Dogs were “managed and owned, but not necessarily operated on a day-to-day basis” by Midlands Events, which employed the staff at the former business.

Another market based outlet, Street Pot, which sells American and Caribbean cuisine, also received a one-star rating but remains in business.
The Local Democracy Reporting Service attempted to contact Street Pot for comment.
Costing over £12m to develop with government grants and funding from the council, Queen’s Market opened last summer to spearhead the town’s regeneration effort.
Initially featuring 16 vendors selling Greek food, pizza, artisan wraps, and Thai cuisine, the food hall was backed in the hope it would increase footfall in the town.
Denbighshire County Council was also contacted for a comment.
