About FoodCheck: Hygiene Ratings UK
How clean is your favourite restaurant? Don't guess, check the official hygiene rating before you eat. FoodCheck gives you instant access to official Food Standards Agency (FSA) hygiene ratings, the UK's "scores on the doors", for every inspected restaurant, takeaway, café, pub, and shop across the UK. Browse ratings on an interactive map, search by name or location, and make safer choices about where you eat. All powered by live FSA data covering England, Wales, Northern Ireland, and Scotland. RESTAURANT RATINGS ON A MAP Browse colour-coded pins showing hygiene ratings as you move around the map. Tap any pin for full details: scores, inspection date, local authority info, and more. Your nearest results load automatically using your current location. SMARTER SEARCH One search box for everything. Find a specific restaurant, takeaway, or café by name, even a partial name, anywhere in the UK. Or search a city, town, postcode, or address to jump the map straight there. Results are ranked by relevance and by distance from you. UK FOOD HYGIENE INSIGHTS See how your area stacks up. Explore average ratings and score distributions for any postcode area and local authority, and compare them against the UK as a whole. Dig into report cards for major UK chains, browse regional breakdowns, and check national rankings for the best and worst councils, postcode areas, and chains. FILTER YOUR RESULTS Narrow results by hygiene rating (0-5, Pass, Improvement Required, and more) or by business type: restaurants, takeaways, pubs, retailers, hotels, schools, and beyond. Hide categories you're not interested in from your results entirely. DETAILED INSPECTION INFO View the full breakdown for any establishment: hygiene score, structural score, confidence in management, inspection date, full address, phone number, and local authority details. Tap Open in Maps to jump to the full Maps listing, including reviews, photos, and opening hours alongside the hygiene rating. See how each place compares to others of the same business type in the same local authority with a side-by-side score chart. SHARE A RATING Tap Share on any establishment to send a link that opens in FoodCheck, or shows the rating on the web for anyone without the app. CHECK FROM APPLE MAPS Found a place in Apple Maps? Share it to FoodCheck to see its hygiene rating right there in the share sheet, without leaving Maps.
