Nemo food hygiene rating

Restaurant/Cafe/Canteen · Gwynedd

Nemo holds a 5, the highest food hygiene rating there is. At its last inspection the restaurant met every standard the inspector checked, with nothing needing attention.

The rating: 5 - Very good

The rating dates from 3 March 2025, 16 months ago. Councils typically re-inspect higher-risk businesses every six months to two years, with well-run, low-risk places visited least often, so this is a normal gap.

Address: 8 Y Maes, Caernarfon, LL55 2NF

How it compares in Gwynedd

That puts Nemo among the 1,764 places in Gwynedd holding top marks, 90% of everywhere the council rates. A 5 is the norm here rather than the exception, so it is the rating to expect, not to be impressed by.

What the inspector found

An inspection scores three things: how food is handled, the physical condition of the premises, and how much the inspector trusts management to keep standards up. At Nemo none of the three raised a concern, the overall rating is only ever as strong as its weakest area, so a clean sweep is what produces a high score.

Questions about Nemo

What is Nemo's food hygiene rating?

Nemo has a food hygiene rating of 5 out of 5 (very good), given by Gwynedd Council on 3 March 2025.

Is Nemo safe to eat at?

The rating covers hygiene standards found at inspection, not the food itself. At 5 out of 5, the inspector found hygiene standards at this restaurant to be very good, the top end of the scale.

When was Nemo last inspected?

Nemo was last inspected on 3 March 2025, 16 months ago. Food hygiene inspections are unannounced, and the rating is published by Gwynedd Council rather than by the business.

What did the inspector find at Nemo?

The inspector scored three areas. Hygienic food handling was rated "good", the cleanliness and condition of the building "good", and confidence in the management of food safety "good". Lower concern in all three is what earns a high overall rating.

How does Nemo compare to other places in Gwynedd?

90% of the 1,957 rated food businesses in Gwynedd hold the top rating of 5, and Nemo is one of them.

Who decides the rating?

Gwynedd Council inspects Nemo and sets the rating; the Food Standards Agency publishes it. Neither the business nor this site can change a rating, a business that disagrees can appeal to its council, and can request a re-inspection once it has fixed the problems.
