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.

  • 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 3 times on July 13, 2026. For example: Improper Construction / Maintenance of Establishment

    • Improper Construction / Maintenance of Establishment
      • Back door was showing light underneath the door base. This gap could allow for the infiltration of pests.

    • Improper Construction / Maintenance of Establishment
      • Clean the bottom interior shelf of the iced capp undercounter cooler. There's slight pooling of water and iced capp residue. Present debris can pose as an attractant for pests (i.e., fruit flies).
