Food hygiene ratings reflect the standards of food hygiene found on the date of the inspection by the local authority.

It is not a guide to food quality, the FSA's website says.

The scheme gives businesses a rating from 5 to 0 which is displayed at their premises and online so customers can make more informed choices about where to buy and eat food.

The scores are as follows:

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
