Premier food hygiene rating

Retailers - other · Swindon

Premier holds a 4, meaning hygiene standards at the shop are good. It is a solid result, the inspector found nothing serious, though a 5 was just out of reach.

The rating: 4 - Good

The rating dates from 31 March 2025, 15 months ago. Councils typically re-inspect higher-risk businesses every six months to two years, with well-run, low-risk places visited least often, so this is a normal gap.

What the inspector found

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 Premier none of the three raised a concern, the overall rating is only ever as strong as its weakest area, so a clean sweep is what produces a high score.

Questions about Premier

What is Premier's food hygiene rating?

Premier has a food hygiene rating of 4 out of 5 (good), given by Swindon Council on 31 March 2025.

Is Premier safe to eat at?

The rating covers hygiene standards found at inspection, not the food itself. At 4 out of 5, the inspector found hygiene standards at this shop to be good, the top end of the scale.

When was Premier last inspected?

Premier was last inspected on 31 March 2025, 15 months ago. Food hygiene inspections are unannounced, and the rating is published by Swindon Council rather than by the business.

What did the inspector find at Premier?

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 "generally satisfactory". Lower concern in all three is what earns a high overall rating.

How does Premier compare to other places in Swindon?

83% of the 1,428 rated food businesses in Swindon hold the top rating of 5, while Premier holds a 4. 177 places in the area share that rating.

Who decides the rating?

Swindon Council inspects Premier 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.
