Hong Kong food hygiene rating

Takeaway/sandwich shop · Rossendale

Hong Kong holds a 5, the highest food hygiene rating there is. At its last inspection the takeaway met every standard the inspector checked, with nothing needing attention.

The rating: 5 - Very good

The rating dates from 4 September 2025, 10 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: 46 Burnley Road East, Waterfoot, Rossendale, BB4 9AF

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 Hong Kong 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 Hong Kong

What is Hong Kong's food hygiene rating?

Hong Kong has a food hygiene rating of 5 out of 5 (very good), given by Rossendale Council on 4 September 2025.

Is Hong Kong safe to eat at?

The rating covers hygiene standards found at inspection, not the food itself. At 5 out of 5, the inspector found hygiene standards at this takeaway to be very good, the top end of the scale.

When was Hong Kong last inspected?

Hong Kong was last inspected on 4 September 2025, 10 months ago. Food hygiene inspections are unannounced, and the rating is published by Rossendale Council rather than by the business.

What did the inspector find at Hong Kong?

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

How does Hong Kong compare to other places in Rossendale?

82% of the 617 rated food businesses in Rossendale hold the top rating of 5, and Hong Kong is one of them.

Who decides the rating?

Rossendale Council inspects Hong Kong 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 Hong Kong and we will email you the morning after its rating changes.
