Starbucks food hygiene rating

Restaurant/Cafe/Canteen · Denbighshire

Starbucks 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 25 November 2019, more than 6 years ago. A lot can change in a kitchen in that time, and a rating this old says more about the business then than now. Councils prioritise re-inspecting higher-risk premises, so a long gap often means the business is considered low-risk.

That puts Starbucks among the 815 places in Denbighshire holding top marks, 81% 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 Starbucks 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 Starbucks

What is Starbucks's food hygiene rating?

Starbucks has a food hygiene rating of 5 out of 5 (very good), given by Denbighshire Council on 25 November 2019.

Is Starbucks 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 Starbucks last inspected?

Starbucks was last inspected on 25 November 2019, more than 6 years ago. Food hygiene inspections are unannounced, and the rating is published by Denbighshire Council rather than by the business.

What did the inspector find at Starbucks?

The inspector scored three areas. Hygienic food handling was rated "very good", the cleanliness and condition of the building "good", and confidence in the management of food safety "very good". Lower concern in all three is what earns a high overall rating.

How does Starbucks compare to other places in Denbighshire?

81% of the 1,009 rated food businesses in Denbighshire hold the top rating of 5, and Starbucks is one of them.

Who decides the rating?

Denbighshire Council inspects Starbucks 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.

Tell me when this changes

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 Starbucks and we will email you the morning after its rating changes.
