Inspection summary

7-Eleven #32150 has been inspected 11 times by Interior Health Authority since February 16, 2015. The most recent inspection, on November 7, 2025, found no infractions.

5 of 11 inspections on record found no infractions at all. In the past 12 months there was 1 inspection with 0 infractions recorded. The higher-risk findings here relate to: Protecting food from contamination, Food temperature control and Food source, labelling and allergens.

The number of infractions per inspection has stayed roughly the same over time.

What these findings mean

Health authorities word their violations differently, so we group them by what they mean for food safety. Higher-risk findings are the ones inspectors treat as critical, because they can directly make someone sick.

  • Protecting food from contaminationHigher risk

    This covers how food is stored, prepared and displayed: raw meat kept away from ready-to-eat food, food covered and stored off the floor, and nothing dripping or splashing into it. Cross-contamination from raw to cooked food is a direct route for salmonella and E. coli.

    Recorded 3 times across 3 separate inspections, most recently on November 13, 2024. For example: 5 Are the premises and equipment properly maintained and operated in a sanitary manner (i.e. ongoing maintenance)?

  • Food temperature controlHigher risk

    Bacteria multiply fastest between about 4 °C and 60 °C (40 °F to 140 °F). Inspectors check that cold food stays cold, hot food stays hot, cooked food is cooled quickly, and that staff have accurate thermometers. Temperature problems are one of the most common causes of food poisoning, so these are treated as critical findings.

    Recorded once on September 25, 2019. For example: 2 Are proper temperature controls maintained to ensure safe storage and display of foods?

  • Food source, labelling and allergensHigher risk

    Food must come from approved suppliers, stay in labelled containers and be thrown out when it is spoiled or damaged, such as dented or swollen cans. Labelling matters for allergies: an unlabelled container can hide an allergen.

    Recorded once on September 24, 2018. For example: 6 Are the foods from approved sources and has the operator taken steps to ensure that the food is safe for consumption?

  • Cleaning and sanitizingHigher risk

    Anything that touches food, such as cutting boards, dishes and utensils, must be washed, rinsed and sanitized. Inspectors check dishwasher temperatures, sanitizer strength and how wiping cloths are stored. Poor sanitizing lets bacteria survive from one use to the next.

    Recorded once on December 3, 2015. For example: 8 - Are equipment, food contact surfaces and utensils washed, sanitized and stored in a manner that removes/prevents contamination?

  • Equipment and utensilsLower risk

    Equipment has to be built from cleanable materials, kept in good repair and stored properly. These findings are mostly about upkeep, like a cracked shelf, a worn gasket or utensils stored the wrong way. They are generally lower risk but show how well the kitchen is maintained.

    Recorded once on December 3, 2015. For example: 14 - Are the premises, equipment and utensils designed and maintained to ensure safe and sanitary food handling?

    This afternoon I went there for picking up my too good to go food but the clerk didn't know what it is and I already show the screen to them that I ordered (containonly wrap, fruit cup...) gave me $5 wings the service sucks. He was saying you only pay $5 so you only can $5 food. Come on train your staff. And if you don't know what it too good to go app, please go ask your manager don't talk bullshit. The worst 7-eleven I've ever been

    Last week I ordered a few packets of cookies from this order. Noticed that they had earased the expiry date on the packet. I called the uber guy and he confirmed that yes the cashier earased the expiry date.

  • Rossana Pachas

    Today Monday July 21, they don't have cream for the coffee, and they say that they probably won't have it for the whole week.

  • Reena Takhi

    Worst customer service ever. Ordered samosa’s to pick up and they gave it someone else when we got there. Ordered second time, when went there again to pick up. They said they forgot about it and it’s gonna be another 15 minutes. Please hire someone who really knows how to work and really wants to work.

  • Celeste Bourgeois-Noad

    Edit 1: I see lots of issues with food. It's a two way street, people need to check if it's good for them (expiration and stuff) anddd idk maybe not feel ranty? I hope the reviews change when they realized things have been fixed cause folks forget their reviews a lot. So hopefully the workers are trying to be wary of what customers (sometimes Karen's and Kevin's on bad days) are prepared to make things better rather than nothing. I like it when I go in. I can use my points, I get what I like and move on. Chicken is ok, food in back is ok. Varies on certain days if it's good or not... Never had issues with cashiers. They're quite chill and can be friendly if you want to small talk! (I don't go in much so again learn yourself if they like small talk). I like our 7 Eleven, haven't seen or felt any red flags the numerous times I've visited. Feels quite professional how workers work.

    Slow & watch your change when paying cash . Should look at device too ^ make sure the total is correct before paying

  • ella paterson

    My boyfriend and I got slurpees from here and both immediately felt nauseous. Later that night and the next day we had symptoms of food poisoning. We barely even had any of our slurpees. DO NOT EAT HERE, I cannot imagine how unhygienic everything else is if this was just from a few sips of a slurpee. Disgusting

    The staff is always friendly here, and their hot food is really good! Washrooms are always 2nd rate, but that's the norm at any gas station.

    We were traveling through and someone recommended the chicken so we thought we would try it out but it wasn't that great. Also, the cashier talked me into signing up for some kind of rewards program which required my email and since then, …

    Good chicken/hot food selection, friendly staff… one star for each. Have always stopped here on my frequent trips through town. Unfortunately their washroom situation has been on a steady decline over the years. Used to have two washrooms, …
