YFC food hygiene rating

Takeaway/sandwich shop · Leeds

YFC holds a 5, the highest food hygiene rating there is. At its last inspection the takeaway met every standard the inspector checked, with nothing needing attention.

The rating: 5 - Very good

The rating dates from 5 September 2024, 22 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: 281 Beeston Road, Beeston, Leeds, LS11 7HX

How it compares in Leeds

That puts YFC among the 4,253 places in Leeds holding top marks, 75% of everywhere the council rates. A 5 is the norm here rather than the exception, so it is the rating to expect, not to be impressed by.

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 YFC 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 YFC last inspected?

YFC was last inspected on 5 September 2024, 22 months ago. Food hygiene inspections are unannounced, and the rating is published by Leeds Council rather than by the business.

What did the inspector find at YFC?

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.

75% of the 5,682 rated food businesses in Leeds hold the top rating of 5, and YFC is one of them.

Who decides the rating?

Leeds Council inspects YFC 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 YFC and we will email you the morning after its rating changes.
