McDonalds food hygiene rating
Takeaway/sandwich shop · Aberdeen City
McDonalds passed its most recent food hygiene inspection. Scotland's scheme does not award star ratings, a pass means the takeaway met the legal standard on the day it was inspected.
The rating: Pass
The rating dates from 20 January 2026, 5 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 20 January 2026, 5 months ago. Food hygiene inspections are unannounced, and the rating is published by Aberdeen City Council rather than by the business.
Who decides the rating?
Aberdeen City 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.
