Here in Scotland, we’re not short on places to eat, with some of the UK’s finest restaurants right on our doorstep. However, there are also a few places that fall short of expectations.With so many options, it can sometimes be difficult to find somewhere local and good quality without a helpful steer in the right direction.And wherever you decide on, it can be a smart idea to check the hygiene ratings of eateries ahead of time - and we’ve got something to help with just that.Our InYourArea Food Hygiene widget can give you the ratings of places in your area - from takeaways to fine dining restaurants.All you have to do is enter your postcode and a list of local eateries and their ratings will appear instantly.Anywhere where food is supplied, sold or consumed, is given a rating for food hygiene.

The businesses are checked over by inspectors from the local authority and rated from zero (the worst) to five (the best).The rating is based on how food is handled, stored and prepared, the cleanliness of facilities and how food safety is managed.If you can't see the widget above, click here to be redirected to InYourArea.
