The West End of London is a district of London, England. It is west of the City of London and north of the River Thames, in the London Boroughs of Camden and the City of Westminster. It is where many of the city's major tourist attractions, shops, businesses, government buildings and entertainment venues, including West End theatres, are concentrated – and as such the term "West End" is used internationally as a metonym for London's theatre district and associated performing arts scene – just as "Broadway" is used to describe that of New York City.
West End (WC2H) is home to 366 rated food establishments in the Westminster area of London. 66.12% hold a 5-star rating, roughly in line with national averages.

Understanding Food Hygiene Ratings
Food businesses are inspected by local council officers and given a rating from 0 (urgent improvement needed) to 5 (very good). The rating is based on three areas:
How food is handled, prepared, and stored. Lower = better. 0 is perfect, 25 is worst.
Condition of the building — cleanliness, layout, ventilation. Lower = better. 0 is perfect, 25 is worst.
Management of food safety — training, records, procedures. Lower = better. 0 is perfect, 30 is worst.
A score of 0/0/0 means very good across all areas. Not all establishments receive sub-scores — some business types are scored differently.
