The Greyhound Inn food hygiene rating

Restaurant/Cafe/Canteen · South Derbyshire

The Greyhound Inn 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 16 September 2025, 9 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: 149 Ashby Road, Woodville, Swadlincote Derbyshire, DE11 7BU
