What the food register shows for Staffordshire Moorlands
Of the 872 food businesses registered in Staffordshire Moorlands, 80 are takeaway or sandwich shop premises and 170 are restaurants, cafés or canteens (Food Standards Agency register). For takeaway premises, Staffordshire Moorlands ranks 23rd of the 30 councils the FSA lists in the West Midlands.
Restaurants and cafés (170) outnumber takeaways (80), but takeaways are still about 9% of the 872 food premises of every kind that Staffordshire Moorlands registers.
Per head of population that is 8.3 takeaway premises for every 10,000 residents (96,764 people in the ONS mid-2025 estimate), close to the UK figure of 9.1 and 8.5 in the West Midlands. Premises also serve commuters and visitors, so busy centres run higher.
Hygiene results for takeaways
| Rating | Takeaways in Staffordshire Moorlands | England average |
|---|---|---|
| Rated 5 | 70.1% | 62% |
| Rated 4 | 13% | 19.1% |
| Rated 3 | 13% | – |
| Rated 0 to 2 | 3.9% | 5.8% |
On hygiene, 70.1% of the 77 rated takeaway premises in Staffordshire Moorlands hold a 5 and 3.9% sit at 0 to 2; the England average for a 5 is 62% (+8.1 points). In the West Midlands as a whole, 57.8% of rated takeaways hold a 5, so Staffordshire Moorlands is above its region.
3 takeaway premises are shown as awaiting inspection and 37 (46%) 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 Staffordshire Moorlands register
As a rough guide to the mix (trading names only, not a cuisine census), 2 cuisine words reach 10 premises in Staffordshire Moorlands: 11 pizza, 10 fish and chip.
| Trading name contains | Premises | Chefzi page |
|---|---|---|
| pizza | 11 | Pizza |
| fish and chip | 10 | Fish and chips |
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, no cuisine word stands out in Staffordshire Moorlands: the most common is pizza, with 11 of the 250 food premises (4.4%), against 4.6% across the UK, close to the national rate. Without one dominant style, customers search for a kitchen by name, so a page of your own that comes up under that name is worth more than a category listing. Chicken or peri-peri names are rarer than average: 2 of 250 (0.8%, 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, ST13 has the most takeaway premises in Staffordshire Moorlands (27), followed by ST10 (23) and ST8 (14).
| Postcode district | Takeaway premises | Rated 5 (of rated) |
|---|---|---|
| ST13 | 27 | 73% of 26 |
| ST10 | 23 | 74% of 23 |
| ST8 | 14 | 62% of 13 |
| ST9 | 5 | 60% of 5 |
| ST11 | 5 | – |
| ST2 | 2 | – |
Half of the food premises in Staffordshire Moorlands are within 6.1 miles of the centre, 39% within 3 miles and 96% within 10. That suits a close zone with a low minimum order plus a wider zone 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 Staffordshire Moorlands: 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 Staffordshire Moorlands'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.
