Food Hygiene Rating Scheme

Food Hygiene Rating Scheme

Carlisle City Council has signed up to the national scheme run by the Food Standards Agency (FSA). We are now displaying our food businesses’ hygiene ratings on the national website.

This scheme, developed by the FSA in partnership with local authorities in England, Wales and Northern Ireland, provides information on food hygiene standards to help you choose where to eat out or shop for food.

or find out more about the Food Hygiene Rating Scheme

The food hygiene rating scheme is not an endorsement of current standards but merely reflects the score we awarded a premises at the time of their inspection. Nevertheless, we try very hard to make sure the information available on these pages is correct. The food hygiene rating scheme adheres to the FSA’s brand standard. Following an inspection it may take up to 28 days for the new rating to appear on our website.


Electronic forms

Electronic forms can be completed and submitted online, with no paper involved, which is not only our preferred method; it's kinder to the environment as well.
