Chargoz food hygiene rating
Restaurant/Cafe/Canteen · Birmingham
Chargoz holds a 4, meaning hygiene standards at the restaurant are good. It is a solid result, the inspector found nothing serious, though a 5 was just out of reach.
The rating: 4 - Good
The rating dates from 21 May 2026, 3 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.
81% of rated food businesses in Birmingham score 4 or 5, so this is a normal, good result for the area. See all Birmingham ratings →
