The food hygiene rating reflects the standards of food hygiene found on the date of the inspection by the local authority.
The food hygiene rating is not a guide to food quality.
Local authorities are responsible for enforcing food hygiene laws and can inspect a business at any point in the food production and distribution process.
Authorised officers from the local council will visit the premises to check the business is complying with food law and producing food that is safe to eat.
To do this, they will look at:
- the premises
- how employees work
- the food safety management system
- the types of food being made and prepared
Authorised officers have the right to enter and inspect the premises at any reasonable time.

How often the business is routinely inspected will depend on the type of business and its previous record.
Some premises might be inspected at least every six months, others much less often.
