Aldi food hygiene rating

Retailers - other · Cotswold

Aldi holds a 5, the highest food hygiene rating there is. At its last inspection the shop met every standard the inspector checked, with nothing needing attention.

The rating: 5 - Very good

The rating dates from 4 October 2021, more than 4 years ago. A lot can change in a kitchen in that time, and a rating this old says more about the business then than now. Councils prioritise re-inspecting higher-risk premises, so a long gap often means the business is considered low-risk.

How it compares in Cotswold

That puts Aldi among the 940 places in Cotswold holding top marks, 93% of everywhere the council rates. A 5 is the norm here rather than the exception, so it is the rating to expect, not to be impressed by.

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 Aldi 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 Aldi

What is Aldi's food hygiene rating?

Aldi has a food hygiene rating of 5 out of 5 (very good), given by Cotswold Council on 4 October 2021.

Is Aldi safe to eat at?

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

When was Aldi last inspected?

Aldi was last inspected on 4 October 2021, more than 4 years ago. Food hygiene inspections are unannounced, and the rating is published by Cotswold Council rather than by the business.

What did the inspector find at Aldi?

The inspector scored three areas. Hygienic food handling was rated "very good", the cleanliness and condition of the building "very good", and confidence in the management of food safety "very good". Lower concern in all three is what earns a high overall rating.

How does Aldi compare to other places in Cotswold?

93% of the 1,009 rated food businesses in Cotswold hold the top rating of 5, and Aldi is one of them.

Who decides the rating?

Cotswold Council inspects Aldi 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.

Tell me when this changes

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 Aldi and we will email you the morning after its rating changes.
