Perfecto food hygiene rating

Takeaway/sandwich shop · Lewisham

Perfecto holds a 4, meaning hygiene standards at the takeaway 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 15 October 2025, 8 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 Perfecto 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.

Perfecto has a food hygiene rating of 4 out of 5 (good), given by Lewisham Council on 15 October 2025.

Is Perfecto safe to eat at?

When was Perfecto last inspected?

Perfecto was last inspected on 15 October 2025, 8 months ago. Food hygiene inspections are unannounced, and the rating is published by Lewisham Council rather than by the business.

What did the inspector find at Perfecto?

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

62% of the 2,009 rated food businesses in Lewisham hold the top rating of 5, while Perfecto holds a 4. 457 places in the area share that rating.

Who decides the rating?

Lewisham Council inspects Perfecto 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.
