What these findings mean

Health authorities word their findings differently, so we group them by what they mean for the people in care. Higher-risk findings are the ones that could directly make someone sick, and they matter more here because young children, older adults and people who are unwell are more vulnerable to infection.

• PestsHigher risk

  Signs of mice, rats, cockroaches or flies, or gaps and clutter that let them get in or hide. Pests carry bacteria and can contaminate food, supplies and surfaces, so evidence of activity is treated seriously and usually triggers a follow-up visit.

  Recorded 6 times across 5 separate inspections, most recently on January 6, 2026. For example: Food premises is protected against the entry and harbouring of pests (C)

• Protecting food from contaminationHigher risk

  This covers how food and supplies are stored and handled: kept covered, off the floor, and away from anything that could contaminate them. Where food is served, raw meat must be kept away from ready-to-eat food, a direct route for salmonella and E. coli.

  Recorded 4 times across 3 separate inspections, most recently on November 27, 2025. For example: Floors, wall and ceilings are clean, in good repair and maintained in a sanitary manner (NC)

• Building, plumbing and upkeepLower risk

  Floors, walls and ceilings must be clean and in good repair, with working lighting, ventilation, plumbing, hot and cold water, and washrooms. These are rarely an immediate health risk on their own, but persistent problems can lead to pest or sanitation issues.

  Recorded 2 times across 2 separate inspections, most recently on April 21, 2026. For example: Ventilation system is maintained to ensure the elimination of odours, fumes, vapours, smoke and excessive heat (NC)

• Food safety training and certificationLower risk

  Many jurisdictions require a trained or certified person on site, such as a certified food handler. These findings mean the training record or the trained person was missing at the time. They do not by themselves mean anything was handled unsafely.

  Recorded once on November 27, 2025. For example: Food handlers who come into contact with food and utensils shall do so in a sanitary manner (C)
