Co-Op food hygiene rating

Retailers - other · Westminster

Co-Op holds a 4, meaning hygiene standards at the shop 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 27 February 2024, more than 2 years ago. A lot can change in a kitchen in that time, and a rating this old says more about the business then than now. Councils prioritise re-inspecting higher-risk premises, so a long gap often means the business is considered low-risk.

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 Co-Op 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.

What is Co-Op's food hygiene rating?

Co-Op has a food hygiene rating of 4 out of 5 (good), given by Westminster Council on 27 February 2024.

Is Co-Op 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 shop to be good, the top end of the scale.

When was Co-Op last inspected?

Co-Op was last inspected on 27 February 2024, more than 2 years 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 Co-Op?

The inspector scored three areas. Hygienic food handling was rated "very good", 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.

How does Co-Op compare to other places in Westminster?

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

Who decides the rating?

Westminster Council inspects Co-Op 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.

Tell me when this changes

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 Co-Op and we will email you the morning after its rating changes.
