After inspection, a business is given a Food Hygiene Rating based on food handling, storage, and preparation, the cleanliness of facilities, and how food safety is managed.

Scored between zero and five, a Food Hygiene Rating reflects the standard of food hygiene found at the time of inspection.

In 2026, four sit-down restaurants in Leeds have scored 1* hygiene ratings, meaning “major improvement is necessary”, and 10 have scored 2*, meaning “some improvement is necessary.
