Lowest rated

The 10 we'd skip.

Lowest score first, most recent inspection. The FSA's own data.

Highest rated

Most recent 5/5s.

Inspected in the last few months and kept a perfect score.

Overdue inspection

Colchester venues not inspected in 18 months or more.

The FSA recommends re-inspection every 6 to 24 months based on risk. These venues' last visit was a while ago. A good sticker from 2022 means less than a good sticker from last month.
