Nisa Today food hygiene rating
Retailers - other · Newham
Nisa Today holds a 1: major improvement is necessary. The inspector found significant problems at the shop and the business is legally required to address them.

What the inspector found
- Hygienic food handling Very good
- Cleanliness & condition of the building Good
- How well they manage food safety Major improvement necessary
An inspection scores three things: how food is handled, the physical condition of the premises, and how much the inspector trusts management to keep standards up. At Nisa Today the inspector recorded concerns over confidence in management. Because the overall rating is only ever as strong as its weakest area, that is what holds the score down.

Questions about Nisa Today
What is Nisa Today's food hygiene rating?
Nisa Today has a food hygiene rating of 1 out of 5 (major improvement necessary), given by Newham Council on 5 October 2024.
Is Nisa Today safe to eat at?
A 1 means the inspector found problems the business is required to fix. The shop is not shut down, a rating is not a closure order, but standards were found to be below what the law expects at the time of inspection.
When was Nisa Today last inspected?
Nisa Today was last inspected on 5 October 2024, 21 months ago. Food hygiene inspections are unannounced, and the rating is published by Newham Council rather than by the business.
What did the inspector find at Nisa Today?
The inspector scored three areas. Hygienic food handling was rated "very good", the cleanliness and condition of the building "good", and confidence in the management of food safety "major improvement necessary". Lower concern in all three is what earns a high overall rating.
How does Nisa Today compare to other places in Newham?
49% of the 2,437 rated food businesses in Newham hold the top rating of 5, while Nisa Today holds a 1. 216 places in the area share that rating.
Who decides the rating?
Newham Council inspects Nisa Today and sets the rating; the Food Standards Agency publishes it. Neither the business nor this site can change a rating, a business that disagrees can appeal to its council, and can request a re-inspection once it has fixed the problems.

The Food Standards Agency publishes only a business's rating today, not what it scored before, and not when it moves. We check every UK rating each night. Watch Nisa Today and we will email you the morning after its rating changes.

Is this your business?
A rating of 1 is public, and most customers look. Only 18% of people say they would order from a business rated 2 or below, against 94% from one rated 4. Delivery platforms may decline to list you.
We cannot change this rating, and nor can you. It was set by an environmental health officer at Newham, and it stands until they inspect again. What you can do:
- Fix what the inspector found, then ask the council for a re-inspection. Most charge between £120 and £316, and will not re-visit within three months of the original inspection.
- If you believe the rating is simply wrong, you have 21 days from being notified to appeal to the council. That is 21 calendar days, not working days.
- You may submit a right to reply at any time. It is published alongside the rating, here, and on the FSA's own site.
