Tesco Metro food hygiene rating
Retailers - supermarkets/hypermarkets · Edinburgh (City of)
Tesco Metro passed its most recent food hygiene inspection. Scotland's scheme does not award star ratings, a pass means the supermarket met the legal standard on the day it was inspected.
The rating: Pass
The rating dates from 15 April 2026, 2 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.
