Big Bite food hygiene rating

Takeaway/sandwich shop · Bristol

Big Bite 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 12 June 2025, 12 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: 126 Cheltenham Road, Montpelier, BS6 5RW
