MATER1A food hygiene rating

Restaurant/Cafe/Canteen · Westminster

MATER1A holds a 4, meaning hygiene standards at the restaurant 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 3 February 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.

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 MATER1A 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.

MATER1A has a food hygiene rating of 4 out of 5 (good), given by Westminster Council on 3 February 2026.

Is MATER1A safe to eat at?

The rating covers hygiene standards found at inspection, not the food itself. At 4 out of 5, the inspector found hygiene standards at this restaurant to be good, the top end of the scale.

When was MATER1A last inspected?

MATER1A was last inspected on 3 February 2026, 5 months ago. Food hygiene inspections are unannounced, and the rating is published by Westminster Council rather than by the business.

What did the inspector find at MATER1A?

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

70% of the 5,235 rated food businesses in Westminster hold the top rating of 5, while MATER1A holds a 4. 848 places in the area share that rating.

Who decides the rating?

Westminster Council inspects MATER1A 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 MATER1A and we will email you the morning after its rating changes.
