Figures come from the FSA register pull of 13 November 2026 and the ONS mid-2025 population estimates. Small areas move a lot between inspections, so read them as a guide, not a verdict on any business.
Late-night hot food (11pm to 5am) is handled by each council, so the rules and forms differ between the areas above. Each area page links its own council's licensing page where we found one, and the late night refreshment licence guide covers the general rules.
