Good Food Guide Changes - August 2017

The Good Food Guide is one of the most widely recognised restaurant guides in the UK. Please note the Good Food Guide relaunched as a private paid digital only service in 2022, with a new scoring system and a public Top 20 (previously it was a Top 50). This was then changed again in 2024 so restaurants are no longer ranked in any order, only assigned an overall rating. We record changes once per year, below are the recorded changes from August 2017.
