Starbucks food hygiene rating

Restaurant/Cafe/Canteen · Buckinghamshire

Starbucks 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 5 December 2024, 19 months ago. That is getting on for the longest gap councils usually leave, so the score may not reflect how the business is run today.

Address: 100 Sir Henry Lee Crescent, Aylesbury, Buckinghamshire, HP18 0YR

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 Starbucks 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 Starbucks

What is Starbucks's food hygiene rating?

Starbucks has a food hygiene rating of 5 out of 5 (very good), given by Buckinghamshire Council on 5 December 2024.

Is Starbucks 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 restaurant to be very good, the top end of the scale.

When was Starbucks last inspected?

Starbucks was last inspected on 5 December 2024, 19 months ago. Food hygiene inspections are unannounced, and the rating is published by Buckinghamshire Council rather than by the business.

What did the inspector find at Starbucks?

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

How does Starbucks compare to other places in Buckinghamshire?

81% of the 4,001 rated food businesses in Buckinghamshire hold the top rating of 5, and Starbucks is one of them.

Who decides the rating?

Buckinghamshire Council inspects Starbucks 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 Starbucks and we will email you the morning after its rating changes.
