Several restaurants and cafes in Sutton achieved a 5 in their hygiene rating from the Food Standard Agency in 2023.

The Food Standards Agency (FSA) is an independent government agency in the United Kingdom responsible for ensuring that food is safe to eat and meets the necessary standards of quality.

Its main role is to protect public health related to food and maintain consumer confidence in the food industry.

A part of this is the Food Hygiene Rating, where the body assesses and rate the hygiene standards of food businesses. 

The Food Hygiene Rating uses a six-point ranking system, with 5 being "very good", 4 being "good", 3 being "generally satisfactory", 2 where "some improvement is necessary", 1 where "major improvement is necessary", and 0 is when "urgent improvement is required".

In 2023, 20 establishments received a 5 rating, so we have compiled a list of the restaurants and cafes that the FSA described as "very good" in Sutton.
