What the food register shows for Rushcliffe

Of the 915 food businesses registered in Rushcliffe, 84 are takeaway or sandwich shop premises and 227 are restaurants, cafés or canteens (Food Standards Agency register). For takeaway premises, Rushcliffe ranks 19th of the 35 councils the FSA lists in the East Midlands.

Restaurants and cafés outnumber takeaways by more than two to one (227 against 84), so sit-down kitchens that also do collection are a big part of the market.

Per head of population that is 6.6 takeaway premises for every 10,000 residents (127,857 people in the ONS mid-2025 estimate), below the UK figure of 9.1 and 9.1 in the East Midlands. Premises also serve commuters and visitors, so busy centres run higher.

Hygiene results for takeaways

On hygiene, 68% of the 75 rated takeaway premises in Rushcliffe hold a 5 and 5.3% sit at 0 to 2; the England average for a 5 is 62% (+6.0 points). In the East Midlands as a whole, 69.1% of rated takeaways hold a 5, so Rushcliffe is close to its region.

9 takeaway premises are shown as awaiting inspection and 42 (50%) had a rating date in the last 12 months. A 5 is not the default here, so a kitchen that holds one can say so on its own ordering page. How hygiene ratings work for takeaways.

Local patterns in Rushcliffe

• Rushcliffe has the number 7 most takeaway premises of the 8 council areas in Nottinghamshire.
• 11% of takeaway premises (9) are still awaiting their first inspection, which usually means recent openings, so new competitors are arriving.
• Hygiene ratings differ by district: 75% of rated takeaways in LE12 hold a 5, against 57% in NG12.
• Nottingham, 2 miles away, has 422 takeaway premises against 84 in Rushcliffe, so Rushcliffe customers have fewer local rivals.
• NG2 alone holds 37% of the takeaway premises in Rushcliffe (31 of 84), so a kitchen there is competing with a dense cluster for the same customers.

Cuisines on the Rushcliffe register

As a rough guide to the mix (trading names only, not a cuisine census), 2 cuisine words reach 10 premises in Rushcliffe: 12 pizza, 10 fish and chip.

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 Rushcliffe show a spread rather than a theme: pizza leads with 12 premises (3.9%), 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: 1 of 311 (0.3%, 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, NG2 has the most takeaway premises in Rushcliffe (31), followed by NG12 (17) and NG13 (12).

54% of premises in Rushcliffe are within 3 miles of the middle of the area and 98% within 10 miles; half are within 2.6 miles. Most kitchens will want two zones, a close one with a low minimum order and a wider one with a higher minimum and a delivery fee. Chefzi's delivery zones are set by postcode or radius, with a minimum order and fee per zone.

Late-night hot food in Rushcliffe: 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. Rushcliffe's council publishes its process here: Rushcliffe 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.
