McDonalds food hygiene rating

Restaurant/Cafe/Canteen · Midlothian

McDonalds passed its most recent food hygiene inspection. Scotland's scheme does not award star ratings, a pass means the restaurant met the legal standard on the day it was inspected.

The rating: Pass

The rating dates from 5 August 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.

Questions about McDonalds

What is McDonalds's food hygiene rating?

McDonalds does not have a numeric food hygiene rating. Its current status is "Pass".

When was McDonalds last inspected?

McDonalds was last inspected on 5 August 2025, 11 months ago. Food hygiene inspections are unannounced, and the rating is published by Midlothian Council rather than by the business.

Who decides the rating?

Midlothian Council inspects McDonalds 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 McDonalds and we will email you the morning after its rating changes.
