Inspection summary
Rocky Cinemas has been inspected 2 times by Alberta Health Services (Environmental Public Health) since February 21, 2024. The most recent inspection, on December 19, 2025, recorded 2 infractions.

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.
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 December 19, 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?
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 once on February 21, 2024. For example:
Are there adequate and properly operating dish washing facilities to effectively clean and sanitize equipment and utensils (unless noted elsewhere)(Non-Critical)?
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 These findings are administrative: the documentation was missing or out of date at the time of inspection.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 December 19, 2025. For example:
Are appropriate food handling practices and plans in place to ensure that food is handled in a manner that makes it safe to eat?

- 06. Are appropriate food handling practices and plans in place to ensure that food is handled in a manner that makes it safe to eat?
- CONTINUES: All refrigeration units were able to maintain the appropriate temperature (at or below 4°C for coolers/fridges; at or below -18°C for freezers). All units were also equipped with a functional thermometer. However, there were no records provided for temperature monitoring. The inspector informed the operator that temperatures should be recorded three times during hours of operations: one at opening, one at closing, and one in between (ideally, after a rush hour), to ensure that the unit was functional throughout operations. A copy of a temperature monitoring template will be provided with this report.**RECORD TEMPERATURES OF ALL REFRIGERATION UNITS.
- 12. Are there adequate and properly operating dish washing facilities to effectively clean and sanitize equipment and utensils (unless noted elsewhere)(Non-Critical)?
- CONTINUES: There were no test strips available during the inspection for the chlorine sanitizer solution. The inspector informed the staff/operator that test strips must be used every time a bleach-water solution is made and must be tested daily before use to ensure that the sanitizer solution has a chlorine concentration between 100-200 ppm. Less than 100 ppm means inadequate sanitization and more than 200 ppm means that chlorine residues could stay in food-contact surfaces, which contaminates food. **OBTAIN TEST STRIPS.
- 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?
- CONTINUES: There was no pest control monitoring system in place during the inspection. The inspector informed the operator that a pest control monitoring system must be implemented in the facility. This can be done by either doing the following: (1) Contracting a professional pest control company to conduct and complete a pest control monitoring inspection every month; or (2) Completing the AHS Pest Control Monitoring Checklist every month. The operator agreed/committed to do the second option. Ensure to have these records available during inspection. A copy of the AHS Pest Control Monitoring Checklist will be provided with this report. Please complete this checklist as soon as possible and send a copy to the inspector to clear this violation.**CONDUCT AND COMPLETE THE PROVIDED PEST CONTROL CHECKLIST EVERY MONTH.
