The Hunger Lab

Lancashire

Food hygiene rating 2 / 5 · Improvement necessary

Bit dodgy, this one

The Hunger Lab scored just 2 out of 5 at its last inspection. Maybe think twice before ordering.

What does this rating mean?

The Hunger Lab in Lancashire has a food hygiene rating of 2 out of 5 (improvement necessary). On the Food Standards Agency scale, 5 is the best and 0 is the worst. A 2 out of 5 means some improvement was necessary at the last inspection.

The rating reflects standards found at the last inspection. It is not a verdict on how the food tastes - it scores how well the business manages food safety. How often a place is inspected depends on its risk: lower-rated and higher-risk businesses are revisited more often than spotless ones.
