Subway food hygiene rating

Restaurant/Cafe/Canteen · Liverpool

Subway 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 19 December 2025, 6 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: 3 Central Shopping Centre Ranelagh Street, Liverpool, L1 1QE

Who decides the rating?

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 Subway and we will email you the morning after its rating changes.
