Quick answers
What is The Cow Shed Cafe's food hygiene rating?
The Food Standards Agency's own record shows "Rated 5 — Very good" (last rated 14 May 2025). This is the FSA's own published verdict, not CafeGuard's — and ratings can change after re-inspection, so always check the current rating on the FSA's own page for this establishment, linked above.
What do the FHRS score components mean?
Alongside the headline 0–5 rating (England, Wales and Northern Ireland), FSA inspectors record three component scores: hygienic food handling, cleanliness and condition of the premises, and management of food safety. Lower component scores are better, per the FSA’s scoring. Scottish premises are assessed under the separate Food Hygiene Information Scheme (FHIS), which gives a pass or improvement-required outcome instead.
Where does the information on this page come from?
Everything on this page — the name, address, business type and the food hygiene rating — comes from the Food Standards Agency's food-hygiene open data (Open Government Licence v3.0). Nothing here is CafeGuard's own assessment of this business. Spotted an error? Email hello@friam.co and we'll correct it within one working day.
