You don't have to walk far in Merseyside to find a fast-food chain. There are an abundance of McDonald's, KFC, Burger King and Subway's dotted around the region.

When we buy a takeaway it's usually as a treat so we don't think too much about the restaurant's hygiene rating, we just want to tuck in and enjoy our meal. However, the hygiene rating some restaurants are hit with may surprise you.

We have rounded up every KFC located in Merseyside from Wirral to Walton and Widnes and found out how the Food Standards Agency (FSA) rates them. Food Standards Agency inspections are carried out by the local authority and findings are updated on the FSA website every time a new inspection by the council is conducted.

Ratings are given by Environmental Health Officers following an inspection of a food business, and range from zero to five stars, with zero indicating urgent improvement is required, one-star meaning major improvement is necessary, two-stars indicating some improvement is necessary, three meaning hygiene standards are generally satisfactory while four means hygiene standards are good and five means standards are very good.

Ratings are based on how hygienically the food is handled, the condition of the premises and how food safety is managed. Premises with a poor hygiene rating of zero to one are subject to more frequent inspections and will have enforcement action taken against them to secure the necessary improvements.
