What the inspector found
- Hygienic food handling Very good
- Cleanliness & condition of the building Very good
- How well they manage food safety Very good
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 Costco 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 Costco last inspected?
Costco was last inspected on 23 June 2026, within the last month. Food hygiene inspections are unannounced, and the rating is published by Coventry Council rather than by the business.
What did the inspector find at Costco?
The inspector scored three areas. Hygienic food handling was rated "very good", the cleanliness and condition of the building "very good", and confidence in the management of food safety "very good". Lower concern in all three is what earns a high overall rating.

77% of the 2,415 rated food businesses in Coventry hold the top rating of 5, and Costco is one of them.
Who decides the rating?
Coventry Council inspects Costco 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.
