6 of 18 inspections on record found no infractions at all. In the past 12 months there was 1 inspection with 1 infraction recorded. The higher-risk findings here relate to: Cleaning and sanitizing, Food temperature control and Handwashing and staff hygiene.

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.

  • 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 4 times across 4 separate inspections, most recently on April 19, 2024. For example: 308 - Equipment/utensils/food contact surfaces are not in good working order [s. 16(b)]

  • 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 2 times across 2 separate inspections, most recently on April 14, 2026. For example: 203 - Food not cooled in an acceptable manner [s. 12(a)]

  • Handwashing and staff hygieneHigher risk

    Hands are the main way germs like norovirus move from people to food. Inspectors look for stocked, accessible handwashing sinks, staff washing hands when required, hair restraints, and sick employees being kept away from food. Gaps here can spread illness quickly.

    Recorded once on November 12, 2024. For example: 401 - Adequate handwashing stations not available for employees [s. 21(4)]

  • 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 once on November 12, 2024. For example: 209 - Food not protected from contamination [s. 12(a)]

  • Building, plumbing and upkeepLower risk

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

    Recorded 8 times across 8 separate inspections, most recently on June 20, 2023. For example: 306 - Food premises not maintained in a sanitary condition [s. 17(1)]

About this data

These results come from Fraser Health Authority, which inspects food premises and other public facilities in this area. We republish the authority's public disclosure data and refresh it regularly; the official record is the final word.

18 inspections

  1. Routine Inspection

    1 infraction

    • 203 - Food not cooled in an acceptable manner [s. 12(a)]
      • Observation (CORRECTED DURING INSPECTION): Four 20L containers of prepared gravy observed in walk in cooler labeled as having been prepared today, internal temperature of one was 83C. Staff stated the required process that they are supposed to follow is placing the food into the walk in freezer. Containers voluntarily relocated to walk in freezer during inspection. Note that room temperature cooling is safe until product has been < 60C for 2 hours, at which time it must be moved to the walk in freezer. Monitor impact on walk in freezer.
      • Corrective Action(s): As discussed during last inspection, food must be cooled down to at least room temperature (if not lower) before being placed in cooler. Large volumes, such as 20L containers, retain heat for much longer periods of time so more rapid cooling methods must be used such as placing in the walk in freezer. Review this with all staff to ensure that the proper cooling process is consistently followed.
