How many takeaways and restaurants Pembrokeshire has
Pembrokeshire registers 2,198 food businesses of every kind with the Food Standards Agency. 114 of them are takeaway or sandwich shop premises and 431 are restaurants, cafés or canteens. Among the 22 councils the FSA lists in Wales, Pembrokeshire is number 15 for takeaway premises.
Restaurants and cafés outnumber takeaways by more than two to one (431 against 114), so sit-down kitchens that also do collection are a big part of the market.
Takeaway density: 9.1 premises per 10,000 residents (population 125,849, ONS mid-2025 estimate), close to 9.1 across the UK. Visitors and commuters are not counted in the population, so town centres read high.
Hygiene results for takeaways
| Rating | Takeaways in Pembrokeshire | Wales average |
|---|---|---|
| Rated 5 | 55.5% | 54.3% |
| Rated 4 | 20.9% | 23.8% |
| Rated 3 | 15.5% | – |
| Rated 0 to 2 | 8.2% | 5% |
110 takeaway premises in Pembrokeshire have a published rating. 55.5% of them hold a 5, against 54.3% across Wales, and 8.2% are rated 0 to 2.
4 takeaway premises are shown as awaiting inspection and 61 (54%) 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.
The kitchens behind the names in Pembrokeshire
Counting premises whose trading name contains a cuisine word (a rough guide, not a cuisine census), Pembrokeshire has 4 words that reach 10: 18 pizza, 16 fish and chip, 12 Indian-style and more.
| Trading name contains | Premises | Chefzi page |
|---|---|---|
| pizza | 18 | Pizza |
| fish and chip | 16 | Fish and chips |
| Indian-style (Indian, tandoori, curry, balti, masala, biryani, tikka) | 12 | Indian restaurants |
| kebab (or doner) | 10 | Kebab shops |
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.
Trading names in Pembrokeshire show a spread rather than a theme: pizza leads with 18 premises (3.3%), in line with the UK's 4.6% (FSA, 13 November 2026). With no dominant style, a kitchen is judged on its own name and menu rather than on its category, so being easy to find under that name is what a direct ordering page adds. Chicken or peri-peri names are rarer than average: 4 of 545 (0.7%, against 1.8% across the UK). These are name-keyword counts, a floor rather than a census.
Postcode districts and delivery zones
Pembrokeshire has takeaways in 14 postcode districts, and the three with the most are SA73 (20), SA61 (20), SA72 (15).
| Postcode district | Takeaway premises | Rated 5 (of rated) |
|---|---|---|
| SA73 | 20 | 47% of 19 |
| SA61 | 20 | 58% of 19 |
| SA72 | 15 | 40% of 15 |
| SA70 | 11 | 73% of 11 |
| SA62 | 10 | 78% of 9 |
| SA71 | 10 | 60% of 10 |
Distances in Pembrokeshire are long: 10% of premises are within 3 miles of the centre, 56% within 10, and the furthest tenth are over 18.2 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.
What stands out in Pembrokeshire
- No postcode district dominates: the busiest, SA73, has only 18% of Pembrokeshire's takeaways, and 14 districts have at least one. Zones drawn tight around each shop beat a council-wide radius.
- Pembrokeshire has the fewest takeaway premises of the 4 council areas in South West Wales.
- Restaurants and cafés here do much better on hygiene ratings than takeaways: 75.2% hold a 5 against 55.5% for takeaways.
- Hygiene ratings differ by district: 78% of rated takeaways in SA62 hold a 5, against 40% in SA72.
- Carmarthenshire, 34 miles away, has 204 takeaway premises against 114 in Pembrokeshire, so Pembrokeshire customers have fewer local rivals.
Late-night hot food in Pembrokeshire: 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 Pembrokeshire'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.
