If you click the question mark it has:
> Pub data is sourced from the Food Hygiene Rating Service (FHRS) via GetTheData Open Pubs
Which explains why Spearmint Rhino is listed in Birmingham (hint: you might get a surprise popping in that establishment for a quick pint).
So nice interface and all but some data curation will be needed - perhaps on a crowd sourced basis? Click and add comment &c.
Ah, interesting. Searching the dataset for my local area, this seems to include some restaurants, but omits hotels entirely. That's skewing the numbers downward tremendously.
