Toast food hygiene rating

Restaurant/Cafe/Canteen · Liverpool

Toast 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 25 July 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.

Address: 414 Longmoor Lane, Liverpool, L9 9DB

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 Toast 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.

What is Toast's food hygiene rating?

Is Toast safe to eat at?

When was Toast last inspected?

Toast was last inspected on 25 July 2025, 11 months ago. Food hygiene inspections are unannounced, and the rating is published by Liverpool Council rather than by the business.

What did the inspector find at Toast?

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 Toast compare to other places in Liverpool?

67% of the 3,383 rated food businesses in Liverpool hold the top rating of 5, and Toast is one of them.

Who decides the rating?

Liverpool Council inspects Toast 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 Toast and we will email you the morning after its rating changes.
