Low Risk

Inspectors have visited The Bristol 14 times, with records going back to 2010. The Bristol was last inspected on Oct 14, 2021. Low risk indicates the latest report didn't flag anything that would worry the average customer. The file hasn't been updated since Oct 14, 2021, so take the current picture with that in mind.

The trend has not been favorable: recent inspections average around 11 violations each, up from closer to three violations before.

“Insects, rodents, & animals not present” comes up most often, recorded seven times in the inspection record.

Restaurants in Chicago average 81, so The Bristol trails the local norm. On the whole, the file is mixed but not concerning.
