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 Pizza Hut 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.

When was Pizza Hut last inspected?

Pizza Hut was last inspected on 7 December 2024, 19 months ago. Food hygiene inspections are unannounced, and the rating is published by Basildon Council rather than by the business.

What did the inspector find at Pizza Hut?

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

80% of the 1,166 rated food businesses in Basildon hold the top rating of 5, and Pizza Hut is one of them.

Who decides the rating?

Basildon Council inspects Pizza Hut 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 Pizza Hut and we will email you the morning after its rating changes.
