Richmond Fresh Foods centre food hygiene rating

Restaurant/Cafe/Canteen · Richmond-Upon-Thames

Richmond Fresh Foods centre 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 20 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.
