Caerphilly's food register in numbers

The Food Standards Agency register has 1,556 food businesses of every kind in Caerphilly: 206 takeaway or sandwich shop premises, 197 restaurants, cafés or canteens, and the rest in other categories. Wales has 22 councils on the FSA list, and Caerphilly sits 4th of them for takeaway premises.

There are more takeaway and sandwich shop premises than restaurants and cafés here (206 against 197), which is unusual and means the competition for a phone order is mostly other takeaways.

Set against the ONS mid-2025 population estimate of 176,078, Caerphilly has 11.7 takeaway premises per 10,000 residents, above the UK rate of 9.1. Commuters and visitors use these premises too, so the ratio is a guide, not a count of customers.

Hygiene results for takeaways

RatingTakeaways in CaerphillyWales average
Rated 536.7%54.3%
Rated 432.7%23.8%
Rated 321.6%–
Rated 0 to 29%5%

Of 199 takeaway premises with a published rating, 36.7% hold a 5 and 9% are rated 0 to 2. The 5 share is below the 54.3% average for Wales (-17.6 points).

7 takeaway premises are shown as awaiting inspection and 144 (70%) had a rating date in the last 12 months. The share rated 0 to 2 is higher than the Wales average (5%), so a visible good rating on your own site helps. How hygiene ratings work for takeaways.

Caerphilly compared with elsewhere

  • Takeaways are a bigger part of the picture here than in most places: there are 1.0 restaurants and cafés for every takeaway in Caerphilly, against about 2.3 across England, Wales and Northern Ireland.
  • CF83 alone holds 32% of the takeaway premises in Caerphilly (65 of 206), so a kitchen there is competing with a dense cluster for the same customers.
  • Caerphilly has the number 3 most takeaway premises of the 10 council areas in South East Wales.
  • Restaurants and cafés here do much better on hygiene ratings than takeaways: 65.3% hold a 5 against 36.7% for takeaways.
  • Hygiene ratings differ by district: 41% of rated takeaways in CF82 hold a 5, against 25% in NP22.

Which kitchens are in Caerphilly

Looking at trading names, Caerphilly has 5 cuisine words that appear in 10 or more premises: 30 fish and chip, 21 pizza, 15 kebab and more. This is a rough guide, not a cuisine census.

Trading name containsPremisesChefzi page
fish and chip30Fish and chips
pizza21Pizza
kebab (or doner)15Kebab shops
Indian-style (Indian, tandoori, curry, balti, masala, biryani, tikka)14Indian restaurants
Chinese-style (Chinese, wok, noodle, Canton, Szechuan)14Chinese takeaways

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, Caerphilly stands out for kebab or doner: 15 premises, 3.7% of the 403 on the register, against 1.7% across the UK. 5 of the 15 are in NP12, a district with 36 registered takeaways of every kind. Of the 15 rated kebab or doner-named premises, 13% hold a 5, against 36.7% of rated takeaways of every cuisine in Caerphilly. A kebab 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. These are name-keyword counts, a floor rather than a census.

Where Caerphilly's takeaways sit, and how to draw delivery zones

The busiest takeaway postcode districts in Caerphilly are CF83 (65), NP11 (43), NP12 (36), out of 9 districts with at least one takeaway.

Postcode districtTakeaway premisesRated 5 (of rated)
CF836540% of 60
NP114334% of 41
NP123636% of 36
CF812232% of 22
CF821741% of 17
NP22825% of 8

Caerphilly is spread out: only 31% of premises are within 3 miles of the middle of the area, 100% within 10 and the furthest tenth are over 5.8 miles away. Rural and town-by-town delivery needs separate zones per town, and collection with a time slot often beats long delivery runs. Chefzi's delivery zones are set by postcode or radius, with a minimum order and fee per zone.

Late-night hot food in Caerphilly: 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 Caerphilly'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.

Usually yes. Hot food or drink between 11pm and 5am is late night refreshment under the Licensing Act 2003 and is licensed by the council. Ask the council licensing team for the current process. See our guide to the late night refreshment licence for the general rules; this is not legal advice.

It has 265 takeaway and 335 restaurant and café premises, against 206 and 197 in Caerphilly (FSA, 13 November 2026).
