When eating out, diners want to be assured that the café or restaurant they've chosen is clean and well maintained.
That's why it's useful to know what the Food Standards Agency makes of businesses in the district.
The Food Standards Agency scores food serving businesses from zero to five.
The rating is based on hygiene, the condition of the facilities/buildings and how the business records what it does to make sure food is safe.
See how the newly rated businesses fared below.
