WHETHER or not you're a fan of their iconic Big Mac, there's always a time and a place for a McDonald's.

With a number of the chain's restaurants based across Somerset, you're never too far from a McFlurry or a Chicken Legend.

But it's always good to know the food hygiene ratings of the places you are eating from.

The Food Standards Agency rates eateries on their hygiene.

The hygiene standards found at the time of inspection are rated on a scale.

Five is top of the scale, meaning the hygiene standards are very good and fully comply with the law. Zero is at the bottom of the scale, meaning urgent improvement is necessary.

Below are the official hygiene ratings for all the McDonald's locations in Somerset.
