## UK Food Hygiene Ratings Description
UK Food Hygiene — Know What You’re Eating

Ever wondered how clean your favourite restaurant really is?
You’ve probably seen those window stickers boasting “5 out of 5 for food hygiene” — but here’s the thing: in most of the UK, it’s not a legal requirement to display a food hygiene rating. That means you could be eating somewhere rated a 1, and never even know it.

## UK Food Hygiene Ratings Reviews in United Kingdom

### *---- "Annoying video ads"
Shows annoying video ads whenever you view a business. Also the default cookie options share data with hundreds of organisations.
-- Paul in Cardiff, 2026-01-25

### *---- "New version really poor"
This app has gone backwards.  If you name a restaurant and search it doesn’t bring that restaurant up, it simply gives a list of restaurants in the area which you then have to scroll through.  There is one restaurant nearby which comes up as you type the name but then doesn’t appear in the list.  It’s such a shame as the app had previously been very useful, but is now very hard work to use.
-- CGT!, 2025-12-31

### *---- "So flawed"
It can’t find restaurants if searching by name. When in near me mode the list is not in alphabetical order so I have to scroll through the whole list just to find a particular restaurant.
-- Snap40, 2025-12-27

### ***** "Works great now on the Apple Watch"
Would love to donate option to get rid of ads. Works great on the watch now. Support for compilations would be ideal so you can access immediately
-- rxp91, 2025-10-20

### *---- "New update now has ads and no option to restore previous purchase"
I have really liked this app.  The new update looks great, but despite having paid to remove ads, the new update does not allow to restore a purchase and the ads are back there
-- Nelster2245, 2025-10-14

### ***** "Almost perfect"
Very good, would be nice if it was nicer looking.
Also some sort of link to the website to see more detail maybe.
Also if you had the ability to search out of your favourites, as I have many restaurants added, it would be nice to quickly find them. 

But overall super helpful
-- mreviews.n, 2025-09-16

### ****- "Good not great"
Bit hard to use and not well  polished
-- Will Boyce, 2025-04-20

### ***-- "Clunky to use"
Once you’ve eventually found the business you’re looking for the information is good but I’m not sure if it’s because I’m trying the free version but the layout on my iPhone is terrible and I find it very difficult to search for what I’m looking for. I’ve since deleted it and I’m using another app. If it had worked well I might have paid a reasonable amount for ad free but as it is I’m not even prepared to use the free version
-- Richard@682, 2025-02-27

### *---- "Limited info"
Very poor app. Gives hygiene score but no info on why a score is low.
-- selectevents, 2025-01-04

### *---- "Good idea but flawed implementation"
It’s annoying to use and some places don’t come up at all. Poor functionality
-- you'vegot to be joking, 2024-12-19

### ***-- "Needs a map option"
Needs a map option to make searching an area and some places are missing.
-- MikeSZ4, 2024-10-07

### ****- "Good app, but search could be better"
Good app, but the search doesn’t always work very well
-- TDMPro2K, 2023-09-27

### ***** "Hello John Benson."
If you see this I have a few questions about your app, thank you.
-- Beric M, 2023-03-18

### ****- "Great but no Google reviews"
Downloaded this app in preference to others because of the detail it provided for each business in terms of its hygiene assessment. Plus how this relates to assessments generally in the local area. I like the idea of combining this with Google reviews for venues as that would bring in another useful way of working out if a cafe/ restaurant was really for me. And would be in just one place. If that was sorted out I’d give this five stars.
-- Sofastealer, 2022-08-14

### ****- "Is this a UK app?"
Why are the recalls dates in the format year/month/date?
Also it mentions the word ‘countrys’ which is incorrect English. Is this a U.K. app or produced overseas?
-- Jezzle750, 2022-06-01

### *---- "So little information!"
I really think there ought be a link to the full report so we can see why an establishment has 1 star.
-- englandman13, 2022-01-08

### ***** "I Always use this app"
We always use this app . Avoided a few 0- 2 ratings that looked nice from outside but grateful to know what’s going on behind closed doors (kitchen)
-- taximan john, 2021-12-04

### ****- "Useful app! Searching not very intelligent!"
Grt app. Tells u wot for example trip-advisor doesnt. Know places to avoid.
-- Kevsmi, 2021-09-24

### ***-- "Many missing businesses"
There are a lot of businesses missing from this app and the GPS tracking is not particularly good either.
-- Snick56, 2021-06-18

### **--- "Okay but could be improved."
Great little app. There are a couple of bugs though. Alerts tend to show everything in the past not just the most recent alerts and it’s a bit annoying to have to choose the location when it has just searched for it when looking for local venues.
-- Bupaldroe, 2020-10-17
