New food hygiene ratings have been awarded to 23 of Sheffield’s restaurants, cafes and canteens, the Food Standards Agency’s website shows.
The ratings are overwhelmingly positive, with 21 being rated the highest five stars, and two receiving a respectable four stars.
The establishments are sorted into three categories: Restaurants, cafes and canteens; Pubs, bars and nightclubs; and takeaways.
The food hygiene rating scheme has been created to help customers choose where to eat out or shop for food by giving them information about hygiene standards in food outlets at the time they were inspected to check compliance with legal requirements.
Here are the 23 Sheffield restaurants, cafes, takeaways and pubs with the highest ratings in the latest food hygiene inspections.
Note: Correct as of January 18 2023, based on information from the Food Hygiene Agency. Ratings can change on a day-by-day basis.
