Shuffle food hygiene rating

Restaurant/Cafe/Canteen · West Suffolk

Shuffle 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 30 November 2025, 7 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: 63 St Andrews Street South, Bury St Edmunds, Suffolk, IP33 1SD

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 Shuffle 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.

When was Shuffle last inspected?

Shuffle was last inspected on 30 November 2025, 7 months ago. Food hygiene inspections are unannounced, and the rating is published by West Suffolk Council rather than by the business.

What did the inspector find at Shuffle?

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

Who decides the rating?

West Suffolk Council inspects Shuffle 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.
