McDonald's food hygiene rating
Restaurant/Cafe/Canteen · Edinburgh (City of)
McDonald's passed its most recent food hygiene inspection. Scotland's scheme does not award star ratings, a pass means the restaurant met the legal standard on the day it was inspected.
The rating: Pass
The rating dates from 20 August 2024, 22 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.

When was McDonald's last inspected?

Who decides the rating?

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 McDonald's and we will email you the morning after its rating changes.
