Dubai food hygiene rating

Other catering premises · Lancaster City

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

The rating: 5 - Very good

The rating dates from 31 October 2024, 20 months ago. That is getting on for the longest gap councils usually leave, so the score may not reflect how the business is run today.

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 Dubai 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 Dubai

What is Dubai's food hygiene rating?

Dubai has a food hygiene rating of 5 out of 5 (very good), given by Lancaster City Council on 31 October 2024.

Is Dubai 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 business to be very good, the top end of the scale.

When was Dubai last inspected?

Dubai was last inspected on 31 October 2024, 20 months ago. Food hygiene inspections are unannounced, and the rating is published by Lancaster City Council rather than by the business.

What did the inspector find at Dubai?

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

79% of the 1,100 rated food businesses in Lancaster City hold the top rating of 5, and Dubai is one of them.

Who decides the rating?

Lancaster City Council inspects Dubai 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.
