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 March 3, 2026. For example: Does the operator use approved methods for cleaning and sanitizing equipment, utensils, and surfaces?

  • 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 2 times across 2 separate inspections, most recently on March 3, 2026. 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?

  • Chemicals and toxic substancesHigher risk

    Cleaning products, sanitizers and pesticides must be labelled and stored away from food and food-contact surfaces. Inspectors flag chemicals that could end up in food, as well as pest treatments applied without proper supervision.

    Recorded once on March 2, 2026. For example: Are chemicals stored and handled in a safe manner?

  • 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 2 times across 2 separate inspections, most recently on March 2, 2026. For example: Does the facility have an adequate supply of potable hot and cold running water and is the water sampled at required intervals?

  • 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 These findings are administrative: the documentation was missing or out of date at the time of inspection.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 2 times across 2 separate inspections, most recently on March 2, 2026. 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?

    • 09. Are chemicals stored and handled in a safe manner?
      • An unlabeled spray bottle was present in the main floor kitchen with bleach concentrate also available. The clear solution was tested using chlorine test strips and no active chlorine was present. This bottle should be labelled to indicate its contents. Note that when food prep is occurring, a proper sanitizer solution must be present and should be tested before use.

    • 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?
      • Mouse feces noted along the floor/wall behind the cabinet with the hot dog grill in the upstairs bar area. No evidence noted of mouse activity observed in the main floor kitchen. Pest monitoring and response plan should be discussed. If none is in place, please look to create and implement.

There is a current permit condition for “intermediate level food handling only” however there is a deep fryer present – no grease observed in unit. The health inspector will need to confirm the intended use of the equipment. If the facility wishes to have deep frying, they need to ensure that the ventilation equipment is inspected and professionally cleaned (in accordance with fire code guidelines) and the Food Handling Permit will need to be updated.If the deep fryer is not intended for use, please implement clear posted signage or another effective method to indicate that the equipment is not to be used.
