LED food hygiene rating

Pub/bar/nightclub · East Devon

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

The rating: 5 - Very good

The rating dates from 6 August 2025, 11 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.

That puts LED among the 1,093 places in East Devon holding top marks, 84% 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 LED 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 LED

What is LED's food hygiene rating?

LED has a food hygiene rating of 5 out of 5 (very good), given by East Devon Council on 6 August 2025.

Is LED 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 pub to be very good, the top end of the scale.

When was LED last inspected?

LED was last inspected on 6 August 2025, 11 months ago. Food hygiene inspections are unannounced, and the rating is published by East Devon Council rather than by the business.

What did the inspector find at LED?

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 LED compare to other places in East Devon?

84% of the 1,303 rated food businesses in East Devon hold the top rating of 5, and LED is one of them.

Who decides the rating?

East Devon Council inspects LED 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.

Tell me when this changes

The Food Standards Agency publishes only a business's rating today, not what it scored before, and not when it moves. We check every UK rating each night. Watch LED and we will email you the morning after its rating changes.
