Food hygiene ratings in Leeds: the takeaways & restaurants given top 5-star ratings in December 2022

Ever wondered where the best place to eat in Leeds is? Whether that is a swanky restaurant to celebrate a birthday, or you just can’t decide which takeaway to order from on a Friday night. Well, we have rounded up the best rated restaurants and takeaways in Leeds in December according to the Food Standards Agency.

Here are the latest restaurants and takeaways shops in Leeds to be given the full five stars in their food hygiene inspections in December 2022, according to data published by the Food Standards Agency (FSA).

From posh restaurants to hospital canteens, local authority food inspectors will visit any premise in the area that prepares, provides or distributes food and report their findings to the FSA. Every few years, the inspectors check the handling, management and preparation of food, storage and the cleanliness of facilities and then give the premises a rating from 0 to 5.

The food ratings are broken down into the following categories:

•  5 – hygiene standards are very good; 
• 4 – hygiene standards are good; 
• 3 – hygiene standards are generally satisfactory;
• 2 – some improvement is necessary; 
• 1 – major improvement is necessary; 
• 0 – urgent improvement is required.

If a restaurant or cafe has had a poor review, they do not need to display the rating but are encouraged to do so by the FSA.
