Food and drink on the high street

Registered premisesCount
Restaurants and cafés (17.1 per 10,000 residents)1
Pubs, bars and nightclubs (34.2 per 10,000 residents)2

Counts are registered food premises in the Holmesfield built-up area (585 residents at the 2021 census), from the FSA food hygiene register, extracted 17 August 2026. The boundary is drawn from where the buildings are, so these figures cover the town itself rather than the wider council area, and no total is shown because the register also lists premises nobody would call a venue: school kitchens, care homes, warehouses.

Share of the 259 residential premises in this built-up area that the fixed network can serve at each speed, from Ofcom's Connected Nations coverage data (network state July 2025). Availability is what the line to a home can deliver if ordered, not what households actually subscribe to, and a full-fibre street where everyone bought the cheapest package shows 100% here.
