London Restaurant Inspection Data: Ratings, Areas & Freshness

A live, data-backed report on London restaurant inspection results: current rating distribution, record freshness, local-area concentrations and repeated-name locations.

Live report. The measurements below are calculated from Cooked’s current copy of the official UK Food Standards Agency + London borough councils feed and refresh after new data is ingested.

How to read this report

One row means one operating establishment or permit in the source—not necessarily one company. A restaurant with several separately permitted counters can appear more than once, while a business the authority marks as gone is excluded. Health-department closures remain included because they are active inspection facts.

“Clean”, “mid” and “cooked” are Cooked’s comparison bands; the authority’s own rating remains the source of truth. the FSA rates 0–5 (higher is better): clean = 4 or 5, mid = 3, cooked = 2 or below.

UK Food Standards Agency + London borough councils does not publish itemized findings in this feed, so this report never guesses what an inspector found. The local-area table uses only areas with a meaningful rated sample, and the repeated-name table describes matching public names rather than claiming common ownership.
