What the food register shows for Gwynedd

Of the 2,111 food businesses registered in Gwynedd, 144 are takeaway or sandwich shop premises and 518 are restaurants, cafés or canteens (Food Standards Agency register). For takeaway premises, Gwynedd ranks 10th of the 22 councils the FSA lists in Wales.

Restaurants and cafés outnumber takeaways by more than two to one (518 against 144), so sit-down kitchens that also do collection are a big part of the market.

Per head of population that is 12.0 takeaway premises for every 10,000 residents (120,295 people in the ONS mid-2025 estimate), above the UK figure of 9.1. Premises also serve commuters and visitors, so busy centres run higher.

Hygiene results for takeaways

On hygiene, 78.1% of the 137 rated takeaway premises in Gwynedd hold a 5 and 3.6% sit at 0 to 2; the Wales average for a 5 is 54.3% (+23.8 points).

6 takeaway premises are shown as awaiting inspection and 87 (60%) had a rating date in the last 12 months. With so many 5s, a 4 or below stands out to a customer scrolling through options, so show your rating and fix anything that holds it down. How hygiene ratings work for takeaways.

Cuisines on the Gwynedd register

As a rough guide to the mix (trading names only, not a cuisine census), 6 cuisine words reach 10 premises in Gwynedd: 22 pizza, 20 Chinese-style, 20 fish and chip and more.

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.

On the 13 November 2026 FSA pull, kebab or doner names are the most distinctive cuisine word in Gwynedd: 18 of the 662 food premises (2.7%), against 1.7% across the UK, about 1.6 times the national rate. 5 of the 18 are in LL57, a district with 28 registered takeaways of every kind. Of the 18 rated kebab or doner-named premises, 72% hold a 5, against 78.1% of rated takeaways of every cuisine in Gwynedd. For a kebab shop in Gwynedd, that means more near-identical names on the same delivery apps, which makes a page of your own, linked from your Google listing, worth more. Chicken or peri-peri names are rarer than average: 1 of 662 (0.2%, against 1.8% across the UK). These are name-keyword counts, a floor rather than a census.

Where the takeaways are, and what that means for delivery zones

By postcode district, LL57 has the most takeaway premises in Gwynedd (28), followed by LL55 (23) and LL53 (23).

Distances in Gwynedd are long: 9% of premises are within 3 miles of the centre, 22% within 10, and the furthest tenth are over 22.3 miles out. Set a separate zone for each town, and offer timed collection where delivery runs would be long. Chefzi's delivery zones are set by postcode or radius, with a minimum order and fee per zone.

Late-night hot food in Gwynedd: 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. Gwynedd's council publishes its process here: Gwynedd council licensing page (checked 13 November 2026). Check it before you open your ordering hours past 11pm.

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.
