It means that of Milton Keynes's 265 similar establishments with ratings, 172 have ratings of five and none have zero ratings.
The Food Standard Agency’s scheme gives businesses a rating from 0 (major improvement is necessary) to 5 (very good), and this is displayed at their premises and online so people can make more informed choices about where to buy and eat food.

Hide AdRatings are a snapshot of the standards of food hygiene found at the time of inspection. They cover handling of food, how food is stored, how food is prepared, cleanliness of facilities and how food safety is managed.
But they do not cover the quality of the food, customer service, culinary skill, presentation or comfort.
