Bolsover's food register in numbers

The Food Standards Agency register has 750 food businesses of every kind in Bolsover: 71 takeaway or sandwich shop premises, 115 restaurants, cafés or canteens, and the rest in other categories. The East Midlands has 35 councils on the FSA list, and Bolsover sits 25th of them for takeaway premises.

Restaurants and cafés (115) outnumber takeaways (71), but takeaways are still about 9% of the 750 food premises of every kind that Bolsover registers.

Set against the ONS mid-2025 population estimate of 84,397, Bolsover has 8.4 takeaway premises per 10,000 residents, close to the UK rate of 9.1 and 9.1 in the East Midlands. Commuters and visitors use these premises too, so the ratio is a guide, not a count of customers.

Hygiene results for takeaways

Of 70 takeaway premises with a published rating, 64.3% hold a 5 and 4.3% are rated 0 to 2. The 5 share is above the 62% average for England (+2.3 points). In the East Midlands as a whole, 69.1% of rated takeaways hold a 5, so Bolsover is below its region.

1 takeaway premises are shown as awaiting inspection and 42 (59%) had a rating date in the last 12 months. A 5 is not the default here, so a kitchen that holds one can say so on its own ordering page. How hygiene ratings work for takeaways.

Which kitchens are in Bolsover

Looking at trading names, Bolsover has 2 cuisine words that appear in 10 or more premises: 14 pizza, 12 fish and chip. This is a rough guide, not a cuisine census.

Counts are premises, takeaway plus restaurant and café, whose registered trading name contains the word. A name without the word is not counted, so treat them as a floor.

Reading trading names on the 13 November 2026 FSA pull, Bolsover stands out for pizza: 14 premises, 7.5% of the 186 on the register, against 4.6% across the UK. 5 of the 14 are in S43, a district with 15 registered takeaways of every kind. Of the 14 rated pizza-named premises, 57% hold a 5, against 64.3% of rated takeaways of every cuisine in Bolsover. A pizza shop here shares its streets with more lookalikes than the national average would predict, so a direct ordering page and a clear link on your Google Business Profile do more work. Chicken or peri-peri names are rarer than average: 0 of 186 (0.0%, against 1.8% across the UK). These are name-keyword counts, a floor rather than a census.

Late-night hot food in Bolsover: the council's own page

Serving hot food or drink between 11pm and 5am normally needs a late night refreshment licence under the Licensing Act 2003, issued by the local council. We could not open Bolsover's licensing page automatically, so ask the council's licensing team for its current process and fees.

The general rules, the 11pm to 5am window and what to ask are in the late night refreshment licence guide. Chefzi lets you set collection and delivery hours separately, so ordering hours can follow whatever your licence conditions say. This is general information, not legal advice.
