About LocalListed
A UK business directory built on open data, with no invented reviews, ratings or endorsements.
What this directory is
LocalListed lists 55,468 real businesses across 16 UK cities and 16 categories. Each listing shows the address, contact details, opening hours and official food hygiene rating that we hold for that business, along with its location on a map and nearby alternatives.
Where our data comes from
- Business details come from OpenStreetMap, contributed and maintained by volunteer mappers and published under the Open Database License (ODbL). Every listing links back to its source record.
- Food hygiene ratings (19,923 listings) come from the Food Standards Agency, which publishes inspection results under the Open Government Licence v3.0.
What we deliberately do not publish
Plenty of directories fill gaps with generated content. We do not. Specifically, this site contains no customer reviews, no star ratings, no "verified" badges, no claimed accreditations and no stock photographs presented as a business's premises.
The reason is simple: these are real, named businesses. Publishing invented reviews or ratings about them would breach the UK Digital Markets, Competition and Consumers Act 2024 and Google's structured data policies, and it would mislead you. Where we hold nothing, a page says nothing rather than filling the space.
A food hygiene rating is an inspection result, not a customer review. We show it with its inspection date and the inspecting local authority so you can check it at source.
Accuracy and corrections
Open data is community-maintained and can be out of date. Businesses close, move and change their hours. Always confirm details directly with a business before relying on them.
If a listing is wrong, contact us and we will correct or remove it. Corrections at source: on OpenStreetMap, or with the Food Standards Agency - will also flow through the next time we refresh our data.
