Food and drink on the high street

Registered premisesCount
Pubs, bars and nightclubs (22.0 per 10,000 residents)1

Counts are registered food premises in the Burton Overy built-up area (455 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.
