In 2023, out of Wigan’s 652 restaurants, cafes and canteens with ratings, 460 (71 per cent) have ratings of five.

None have received a zero so far this year.

Businesses are scored from zero to five on a variety of different components like how food is handled with preparation, cooking, reheating and storage.

They also look at the cleanliness, layout and structure of the building when it comes to lighting, ventilation and how it is managed.
