Reigate and Banstead's food register in numbers

The Food Standards Agency register has 1,119 food businesses of every kind in Reigate and Banstead: 89 takeaway or sandwich shop premises, 213 restaurants, cafés or canteens, and the rest in other categories. The South East has 64 councils on the FSA list, and Reigate and Banstead sits 26th of them for takeaway premises.

Restaurants and cafés outnumber takeaways by more than two to one (213 against 89), so sit-down kitchens that also do collection are a big part of the market.

Set against the ONS mid-2025 population estimate of 159,413, Reigate and Banstead has 5.6 takeaway premises per 10,000 residents, below the UK rate of 9.1 and 6.4 in the South East. Commuters and visitors use these premises too, so the ratio is a guide, not a count of customers.

Hygiene results for takeaways

Of 75 takeaway premises with a published rating, 49.3% hold a 5 and 10.7% are rated 0 to 2. The 5 share is below the 62% average for England (-12.7 points). In the South East as a whole, 65.5% of rated takeaways hold a 5, so Reigate and Banstead is below its region.

14 takeaway premises are shown as awaiting inspection and 41 (46%) had a rating date in the last 12 months. The share rated 0 to 2 is higher than the England average (5.8%), so a visible good rating on your own site helps. How hygiene ratings work for takeaways.

Which kitchens are in Reigate and Banstead

Looking at trading names, Reigate and Banstead has 3 cuisine words that appear in 10 or more premises: 15 pizza, 13 fish and chip, 10 kebab. 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.

On the 13 November 2026 FSA pull, kebab or doner names are the most distinctive cuisine word in Reigate and Banstead: 10 of the 302 food premises (3.3%), against 1.7% across the UK, about 1.9 times the national rate. 5 of the 10 are in RH1, a district with 35 registered takeaways of every kind. Of the 10 rated kebab or doner-named premises, 30% hold a 5, against 49.3% of rated takeaways of every cuisine in Reigate and Banstead. For a kebab shop in Reigate and Banstead, 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. Chinese or noodle names are rarer than average: 5 of 302 (1.7%, against 2.5% across the UK). These are name-keyword counts, a floor rather than a census.

Late-night hot food in Reigate and Banstead: 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 Reigate and Banstead'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.
