Chattanooga food hygiene rating

Takeaway/sandwich shop · Cumberland

Chattanooga holds a 3: generally satisfactory. The takeaway met the legal standard, but the inspector recorded enough minor issues that it fell short of a good or very good rating.

The rating: 3 - Generally satisfactory

The rating dates from 5 March 2025, 16 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: 27 Main Street, Egremont, Cumbria, CA22 2DR

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 Chattanooga 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 Chattanooga

What is Chattanooga's food hygiene rating?

A 3 means the takeaway met the legal standard, so it is lawful to eat there, but the inspector recorded issues that stopped it scoring higher. It is the middle of the scale.

When was Chattanooga last inspected?

Chattanooga was last inspected on 5 March 2025, 16 months ago. Food hygiene inspections are unannounced, and the rating is published by Cumberland Council rather than by the business.

What did the inspector find at Chattanooga?

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

84% of the 2,490 rated food businesses in Cumberland hold the top rating of 5, while Chattanooga holds a 3. 88 places in the area share that rating.

Who decides the rating?

Cumberland Council inspects Chattanooga 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 Chattanooga and we will email you the morning after its rating changes.
