Places to eat in Merseyside: The Wirral takeaways handed five stars by the Food Standards Agency in 2023

We all love a good takeaway, and I’m sure we all think our local is the best. But, which ones are the best according to food hygiene inspectors?

Food hygiene ratings allow us to see just how clean and well-managed our local eateries are, with surprise visits from Wirral Council inspectors, in partnership with the Food Standards Agency (FSA).

We’ve collated a list of all the Wirral takeaways to be handed the top rating this year, to help you choose where to get your next takeaway tea.

Ratings

What the ratings mean: The scheme gives businesses a rating from five to zero which is displayed at their premises and online so you can make more informed choices about where to buy and eat food.

• 0 - urgent improvement required.
• 1 – major improvement necessary.
• 2 – some improvement necessary.
• 3 – hygiene standards are generally satisfactory.
• 4 – hygiene standards are good.
• 5 – hygiene standards are very good.
