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 Prahova 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.

Questions about Prahova

What is Prahova's food hygiene rating?

Prahova has a food hygiene rating of 5 out of 5 (very good), given by Harrow Council on 7 August 2024.

Is Prahova safe to eat at?

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

When was Prahova last inspected?

Prahova was last inspected on 7 August 2024, 23 months ago. Food hygiene inspections are unannounced, and the rating is published by Harrow Council rather than by the business.

What did the inspector find at Prahova?

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

How does Prahova compare to other places in Harrow?

61% of the 1,551 rated food businesses in Harrow hold the top rating of 5, and Prahova is one of them.

Who decides the rating?

Harrow Council inspects Prahova 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 Prahova and we will email you the morning after its rating changes.
