EVERY business which handles or sells food and drink is subject to hygiene inspections.

Councils' food safety inspectors periodically visit establishments across their area before a rating is published on the Food Standards Agency website

Here we have put together a list of all the eateries, hotels and shops in and around Northwich, Winsford, Middlewich and Knutsford which have been inspected and given a food hygiene rating in 2023.

Findings from the inspections are updated on the FSA website whenever there is a new inspection conducted by the council.

Ratings range from zero to five, here's what the ratings mean:

Zero: Urgent improvement necessary

One: Major improvement necessary

Two: Improvement necessary

Three: Generally satisfactory

Four: Good

Five: Very good

All information was correct at time of writing (April 8).
