Each month, inspectors from the Food Safety Agency visits dozens of restaurants, takeaways and cafes around Leeds. Restaurants are given a rating from 0 to 5 based on standards observed at the time of inspection.
The inspector rates businesses based on food handling, the condition of the premises and management of food safety, with 5 being very good and 0 requiring immediate action.
Last month, a number of restaurants and takeaways impressed inspectors during their inspection, earning the top score.
We have excluded major franchises such as Starbucks, as well as catering firms, nursing homes and similar businesses.
