Hygge food hygiene rating

Retailers - other · Hull City

Hygge holds a 4, meaning hygiene standards at the shop are good. It is a solid result, the inspector found nothing serious, though a 5 was just out of reach.

The rating: 4 - Good

The rating dates from 11 September 2025, 10 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.

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 Hygge 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.

What is Hygge's food hygiene rating?

Hygge has a food hygiene rating of 4 out of 5 (good), given by Hull City Council on 11 September 2025.

Is Hygge safe to eat at?

When was Hygge last inspected?

Hygge was last inspected on 11 September 2025, 10 months ago. Food hygiene inspections are unannounced, and the rating is published by Hull City Council rather than by the business.

What did the inspector find at Hygge?

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

78% of the 1,920 rated food businesses in Hull City hold the top rating of 5, while Hygge holds a 4. 198 places in the area share that rating.

Who decides the rating?

Hull City Council inspects Hygge 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.
