Fish and chips (64), Chinese (44), pizza (31), kebab (20), Indian or Bangladeshi (16). Roughly 55% couldn't be classed from the name. Relevant guides: fish and chip shops, Chinese takeaways, pizza shops.
What holds ratings back here
Of the 98 rated takeaways below a 5, 67.3% lost points on confidence in management (records and procedures), 52% on food handling and 65.3% on the premises. Full spread: 5: 347, 4: 54, 3: 37, 2: 7, 1: 5, 0: 0. 8.2% of ratings are more than two years old and 2% more than three. If you've fixed what the officer raised, you can ask Cornwall council for a re-rating visit (it may charge, and the score can go down as well as up).
