Pit-Stop/Mount Fast Food food hygiene rating

Restaurant/Cafe/Canteen · Waltham Forest

Pit-Stop/Mount Fast Food holds a 3: generally satisfactory. The restaurant met the legal standard, but the inspector recorded enough minor issues that it fell short of a good or very good rating.

The rating: 3 - Generally satisfactory

The rating dates from 27 January 2026, 5 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.
