How this service works
UK food hygiene ratings from the Food Standards Agency, fetched live. Give a postcode, or a business name with an optional town; get each food business with its rating (0-5, or Scotland pass/improvement), inspection date, score breakdown, business type, address and council, plus the average and lowest rating. Use for checking restaurants, takeaways and food suppliers, due diligence and local prospecting. Not charged when nothing matches.
Output
Returns a list of matching food establishments with their hygiene rating (0–5 numeric or Scotland pass/improvement required), last inspection date, detailed score breakdown, business type, full address, and responsible local council. Also includes aggregate statistics: total match count, average rating across results, and the lowest-rated establishment. A plain-English summary string is included. Returns an empty result set (not charged) when no businesses match the query.
Example use cases
Pre-order restaurant hygiene check
“Before I place a big catering order, can you check the food hygiene rating for Spice Garden in Birmingham? I want to know their score, last inspection date, and whether there are any red flags.”
Local area food safety prospecting
“Can you pull all the food businesses and their hygiene ratings for the postcode SW1A 1AA? I'd like to see the average rating and flag any that scored below 3.”
Supplier due diligence screening
“We're onboarding a new food supplier called Freshfield Meats — can you check their UK food hygiene rating and tell me when they were last inspected and what their scores were?”
Technical details
Endpoint
GEThttps://uk-food-hygiene.agent-fee-check.workers.dev/ratings?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Use this endpoint when you need live, authoritative UK food hygiene rating data sourced directly from the Food Standards Agency. It is the right choice when you have a UK postcode or a food business name (optionally with town) and need structured ratings, scores, and inspection history — particularly for due diligence, compliance checking, consumer safety queries, or local food business discovery. Prefer this over general web search when you need structured, parseable rating data with score breakdowns rather than unstructured text.
Side effects
- No matching establishments found — returns empty list and zero count, not charged
- Invalid or unrecognised UK postcode format — may return no results or an error
- Ambiguous business name with no town specified — may return many unrelated results
- FSA upstream API unavailable — live fetch may fail with a service error
- Business name spelling mismatch — results may be empty if name does not closely match FSA records
