Morley's Brighton food hygiene rating

Restaurant/Cafe/Canteen · Brighton and Hove

Morley's Brighton holds a 3: generally satisfactory. The restaurant met the legal standard, but the inspector recorded enough minor issues that it fell short of a good or very good rating.

The rating: 3 - Generally satisfactory

The rating dates from 19 February 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: 22 St James's Street, Brighton, BN2 1RF
