Cultures food hygiene rating

Restaurant/Cafe/Canteen · Bradford

Cultures 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 8 November 2024, 20 months ago. That is getting on for the longest gap councils usually leave, so the score may not reflect how the business is run today.

Address: 79 Victoria Road, Saltaire, BD18 3JS

How it compares in Bradford

That puts Cultures among the 2,942 places in Bradford holding top marks, 72% of everywhere the council rates. A 5 is the norm here rather than the exception, so it is the rating to expect, not to be impressed by.

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 Cultures 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.

What is Cultures's food hygiene rating?

Cultures has a food hygiene rating of 5 out of 5 (very good), given by Bradford Council on 8 November 2024.

Is Cultures 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 restaurant to be very good, the top end of the scale.

When was Cultures last inspected?

Cultures was last inspected on 8 November 2024, 20 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 Cultures?

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 Cultures compare to other places in Bradford?

72% of the 4,079 rated food businesses in Bradford hold the top rating of 5, and Cultures is one of them.

Who decides the rating?

Bradford Council inspects Cultures 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.
