The Globe food hygiene rating

Pub/bar/nightclub · Cardiff

The Globe holds a 5, the highest food hygiene rating there is. At its last inspection the pub met every standard the inspector checked, with nothing needing attention.

The rating: 5 - Very good

The rating dates from 6 September 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.

Address: 125 Albany Road, Roath, Cardiff, CF24 3NS

How it compares in Cardiff

That puts The Globe among the 2,114 places in Cardiff holding top marks, 70% 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 The Globe 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.

Is The Globe safe to eat at?

When was The Globe last inspected?

The Globe was last inspected on 6 September 2024, 22 months ago. Food hygiene inspections are unannounced, and the rating is published by Cardiff Council rather than by the business.

What did the inspector find at The Globe?

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.

70% of the 3,034 rated food businesses in Cardiff hold the top rating of 5, and The Globe is one of them.

Who decides the rating?

Cardiff Council inspects The Globe 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.
