Surprising Culprits: Sheffield‘s Restaurants, Pubs, and Takeaways with Poor Food Hygiene Ratings
Sheffield, a city renowned for its diverse culinary scene, has recently seen some of its beloved eateries fall short in an area that truly matters—food hygiene. A recent report reveals that 22 local establishments, including restaurants, pubs, cafes, and takeaways, have been hit with a disheartening one-star food hygiene rating, signalling the need for ‘major improvements.’
A one-star rating, issued by Sheffield City Council in collaboration with the Food Standards Agency, indicates that an establishment’s food hygiene practices need enhancement. From how food is stored and prepared to the cleanliness of the facilities, these low scores highlight critical areas where these businesses must improve. The ratings, ranging from zero to five, serve as a guide to help consumers make informed choices about where they eat or purchase food. A five-star rating means’ hygiene standards are excellent,’ while a zero signals an urgent need for improvements.
Currently, 49 businesses in Sheffield are saddled with a one-star rating, including 12 restaurants, pubs, and cafes, and ten takeaways or sandwich shops. These scores, publicly accessible online, provide transparency and allow customers to see which places might not meet the expected standards of cleanliness and food safety. While businesses can voluntarily display their hygiene rating, not all choose to do so—perhaps for good reason.
Here is a list of Sheffield‘s one-star establishments as of August. If you have a favourite spot, you should brace yourself.

When an establishment receives a one-star rating, it indicates that significant enhancements in its operations are required.
While these ratings were accurate at the time of publication, they are subject to change as businesses work to improve their standards. As a consumer, it’s always worth checking the most recent ratings before choosing where to dine. After all, food safety should never be compromised.
