74
Score
Medium Risk

Going back to 2010, Barney's Pizza has 41 inspections in the public record. The most recent visit was on Jan 7, 2025. Medium risk typically reflects a handful of issues that inspectors wrote up but didn't deem critical.

The picture has improved over the last few visits: recent inspections have averaged around seven violations, down from roughly 11 violations earlier in the record.

The pattern that stands out is “non-food/food contact surfaces clean”, which has been cited 19 times.

That's lower than the typical Chicago restaurant, which scores around 81. On the whole, the file is mixed but not concerning.
