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.
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.

New favourite on Baker Street!! Our first time checking this place out today and we were greeted so warmly by the staff. They were super helpful and quick to point out the many amazing menu options that suited our dietary restrictions (dairy free and vegetarian). The summer special chunky monkey milkshake was to die for, sooo thick, rich, and delicious and naturally dairy free! We will definitely be back to have this again and are eager to try to main menu shakes soon too. The avocado cashew cream cheese bagel was also so creative, unique and delicious. Not to mention the bagels for both sandwiches we got were insanely good and perfectly toasted, yum. My partner got the dairy-full peanut butter cup and raved about it as well - they said it was an excellent texture and clearly made with great quality ingredients. It’s so exciting to have dairy free options that don’t feel like an afterthought and don’t just have substitutions for dairy cheese etc. It’s also awesome to have such healthy nourishing food available while you’re out and about that is incredibly tasty and full of flavour. There’s lots of vegan and GF options as well so everyone has something they can enjoy. You could just tell everything was made with so much thought and care. The prices are very good for such excellent quality too! We will definitely be back and recommend people check out this place ASAP!

They've got a delicious gluten-free chocolate carrot muffin. Moist, tasty. You wouldn't know it's gluten-free. This has a small town community feel to it. Great place to hang out, and a bulletin board with all the local happenings.

The most overpriced and disappointing sandwich in Nelson. Mostly mediocre bread, 3 small squares of marble cheese, a couple scant pieces of "turkey" and paper thin bacon. You want us to support local and this is the quality we get in return for the ludicrousprice you're charging? Totally unacceptable and a slap in the face for your customers. Never coming back. Next time I'll just go to Subway.

Had such a lovely experience at this café! The atmosphere was warm and inviting, perfect for relaxing or catching up with friends. The staff were incredibly friendly and made us feel right at home from the moment we walked in. The coffee was rich and perfectly brewed, and the food was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. You can really tell they care about quality and attention to detail. Definitely a spot I’ll be coming back to again and again—highly recommend to anyone looking for great coffee, delicious bites, and a cozy vibe!

I had great coffee and a samosa (toasted) which was wonderful! Also the most exquisite macarons, and an amazing black bean brownie to go. This place is so nice. I like the mellow piano music on the sound system. And the owner is very attentive. Probably my favorite place in our travels so far. Thank You!
