Score
Going back to 2010, Bj's Market & Bakery has 38 inspections in the public record. The latest inspection on file is from Mar 15, 2019. Diners may want to take note: high risk reflects issues that a health inspector considered important. The file hasn't been updated since Mar 15, 2019, so take the current picture with that in mind.
The trend has not been favorable: recent inspections average around 14 violations each, up from closer to three violations before.
“Walls, ceilings, attached equipment constructed per code” accounts for the largest share of issues, appearing 22 times across the record.
By comparison, the average Chicago facility scores 81, putting Bj's Market & Bakery on the weaker side. Diners may want to weigh the inspection history when deciding to visit.
