Other catering premises · Barnet

Maya Lounge holds a 3: generally satisfactory. The business 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

This is a fresh result: Maya Lounge was inspected on 4 August 2026, so the rating reflects what the inspector found very recently.

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 Maya Lounge 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.

When was Maya Lounge last inspected?

Maya Lounge was last inspected on 4 August 2026, a month ago. Food hygiene inspections are unannounced, and the rating is published by Barnet Council rather than by the business.

What did the inspector find at Maya Lounge?

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