Umami food hygiene rating

Restaurant/Cafe/Canteen · Warrington

Umami 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 7 May 2026, 2 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 3, 28-32 Milner Street, WA5 1AD

How it compares in Warrington

That puts Umami among the 1,178 places in Warrington holding top marks, 77% 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 Umami 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 Umami last inspected?

Umami was last inspected on 7 May 2026, 2 months ago. Food hygiene inspections are unannounced, and the rating is published by Warrington Council rather than by the business.

What did the inspector find at Umami?

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.

77% of the 1,533 rated food businesses in Warrington hold the top rating of 5, and Umami is one of them.

Who decides the rating?

Warrington Council inspects Umami 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.
