Delicious food hygiene rating

Takeaway/sandwich shop · Bradford

Delicious 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 2 March 2026, 4 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: 53 Beckside Road, Bradford, BD7 2JN

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 Delicious 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 Delicious

What is Delicious's food hygiene rating?

Delicious has a food hygiene rating of 3 out of 5 (generally satisfactory), given by Bradford Council on 2 March 2026.

Is Delicious safe to eat at?

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 Delicious last inspected?

Delicious was last inspected on 2 March 2026, 4 months ago. Food hygiene inspections are unannounced, and the rating is published by Bradford Council rather than by the business.

What did the inspector find at Delicious?

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.

How does Delicious compare to other places in Bradford?

72% of the 4,079 rated food businesses in Bradford hold the top rating of 5, while Delicious holds a 3. 306 places in the area share that rating.

Who decides the rating?

Bradford Council inspects Delicious 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.
