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.
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 2 times across 2 separate inspections, most recently on November 6, 2025. For example:
Are there adequate and properly operating dish washing facilities to effectively clean and sanitize equipment and utensils (unless noted elsewhere)(Non-Critical)?
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 and surfaces, so evidence of activity is treated seriously and usually triggers a follow-up visit.
Recorded once on November 6, 2025. For example:
Is the facility free of unapproved animals, vermin and/or insects (unless noted elsewhere), and maintained to prevent the entry or harbourage of pests?
Permits, records and postingLower risk
Operating permits, required signage, written procedures and logs. These findings are administrative: the documentation was missing or out of date at the time of inspection.
Recorded once on November 6, 2025. For example:
Does the facility have a valid permit and does the facility operate in compliance with the conditions of that permit, or is the facility awaiting approval prior to operation?

- The test strips available for confirming the concentration of peroxyacetic acid (PAA) used to sanitize food handling surfaces and equipment does not have an acceptable range for verifying the concentrations needed. The acceptable concentration of PAA for the sanitizing product used is 2000-2800ppm. The test strips in use measure to a maximum concentration of 160ppm PAA.Acquire alternate suitable test strips or other means of verifying the concentration of PAA in use for sanitizing food handling surfaces and equipment. The test strips in use should be capable of measuring concentrations above and below the acceptable limits for food handling (i.e., a maximum reading of 3000ppm or greater).
- 16. Is the facility free of unapproved animals, vermin and/or insects (unless noted elsewhere), and maintained to prevent the entry or harbourage of pests?
- Weatherstripping underneath the back door near the taproom bar is missing. Replace weatherstripping to reduce pest entry.
