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.
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 May 26, 2023. 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 2 times across 2 separate inspections, most recently on February 5, 2026. For example:
306 - Food premises not maintained in a sanitary condition [s. 17(1)]
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 These findings are administrative: the documentation was missing or out of date at the time of inspection.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 June 20, 2024. For example:
103 - Failure to hold a valid permit while operating a food service establishment [s. 8(1)]

- 308 - Equipment/utensils/food contact surfaces are not in good working order [s. 16(b)]
- Observation:
- 1) The automatic cream dispenser and the sandwich assembly cooler, in the front service area, were 10C. Bacteria can multiply at this warm temperature and perishable items will rot faster. Customers consuming the food will become ill. During the inspection, a maintenance company came to fix the coolers.
- 2) The insulated pipe, beside the stacked ovens, has broken insulation which is exposing wire mesh. The insulation is no longer durable, smooth, sealed and cleanable. In fact, there is a large accumulation of icing on the insulated pipe.
- Corrective Action(s):
- 1) Immediately contact a company to repair the coolers so they are able to keep food below 4C at all times. Only place enough perishable foods in the coolers, which can be used up within 2 hours. At time of inspection, a maintenance company arrived and was fixing the cooler.
- 2) Remove and replace the insulation around the pipe so it is durable, smooth, intact, sealed and cleanable.
