Manufacturers/packers · Ealing
Roti Joupa holds a 1: major improvement is necessary. The inspector found significant problems at the food producer and the business is legally required to address them.
The rating: 1 - Major improvement necessary

What the inspector found
- Hygienic food handling Improvement necessary
- Cleanliness & condition of the building Improvement necessary
- 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 Roti Joupa the inspector recorded concerns over how food is handled, the condition of the premises and 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 Roti Joupa

Roti Joupa has a food hygiene rating of 1 out of 5 (major improvement necessary), given by Ealing Council on 11 December 2025.
Is Roti Joupa safe to eat at?
A 1 means the inspector found problems the business is required to fix. The food producer 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 Roti Joupa last inspected?
Roti Joupa was last inspected on 11 December 2025, 7 months ago. Food hygiene inspections are unannounced, and the rating is published by Ealing Council rather than by the business.
What did the inspector find at Roti Joupa?
The inspector scored three areas. Hygienic food handling was rated "improvement necessary", the cleanliness and condition of the building "improvement necessary", 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 Roti Joupa compare to other places in Ealing?
58% of the 3,049 rated food businesses in Ealing hold the top rating of 5, while Roti Joupa holds a 1. 135 places in the area share that rating.
Who decides the rating?
Ealing Council inspects Roti Joupa 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.

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 Ealing, 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.
