What the food register shows for Teignbridge

Of the 1,303 food businesses registered in Teignbridge, 90 are takeaway or sandwich shop premises and 283 are restaurants, cafés or canteens (Food Standards Agency register). For takeaway premises, Teignbridge ranks 17th of the 27 councils the FSA lists in the South West.

Restaurants and cafés outnumber takeaways by more than two to one (283 against 90), so sit-down kitchens that also do collection are a big part of the market.

Per head of population that is 6.5 takeaway premises for every 10,000 residents (138,607 people in the ONS mid-2025 estimate), below the UK figure of 9.1 and 6.9 in the South West. Premises also serve commuters and visitors, so busy centres run higher.

Hygiene results for takeaways

On hygiene, 80.2% of the 81 rated takeaway premises in Teignbridge hold a 5 and 2.5% sit at 0 to 2; the England average for a 5 is 62% (+18.2 points). In the South West as a whole, 73.3% of rated takeaways hold a 5, so Teignbridge is above its region.

9 takeaway premises are shown as awaiting inspection and 39 (43%) 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 Teignbridge register

As a rough guide to the mix (trading names only, not a cuisine census), 2 cuisine words reach 10 premises in Teignbridge: 14 pizza, 13 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.

On the 13 November 2026 FSA pull, no cuisine word stands out in Teignbridge: the most common is pizza, with 14 of the 373 food premises (3.8%), 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: 0 of 373 (0.0%, against 1.8% across the UK). These are name-keyword counts, a floor rather than a census.

Local patterns in Teignbridge

• Teignbridge has the number 4 most takeaway premises of the 10 council areas in Devon.
• 10% of takeaway premises (9) are still awaiting their first inspection, which usually means recent openings, so new competitors are arriving.
• Torbay, 7 miles away, has 154 takeaway premises against 90 in Teignbridge, so Teignbridge customers have fewer local rivals.
• TQ12 alone holds 34% of the takeaway premises in Teignbridge (31 of 90), so a kitchen there is competing with a dense cluster for the same customers.

Where the takeaways are, and what that means for delivery zones

Half of the food premises in Teignbridge are within 4.6 miles of the centre, 35% 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 Teignbridge: 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 Teignbridge'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.
