Odyssey food hygiene rating

Restaurant/Cafe/Canteen · Stafford

Odyssey 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 6 June 2025, 13 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: Unit 201 Trentham Retail Village, Stone Road, Tittensor, ST4 8AX

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 Odyssey 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.

A 3 means the restaurant met the legal standard, so it is lawful to eat there, but the inspector recorded issues that stopped it scoring higher. It is the middle of the scale.

When was Odyssey last inspected?

Odyssey was last inspected on 6 June 2025, 13 months ago. Food hygiene inspections are unannounced, and the rating is published by Stafford Council rather than by the business.

What did the inspector find at Odyssey?

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

80% of the 976 rated food businesses in Stafford hold the top rating of 5, while Odyssey holds a 3. 38 places in the area share that rating.

Who decides the rating?

Stafford Council inspects Odyssey 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.
