Score
Public records show 10 inspections at Ron's Cafe stretching back to 2022. The most recent report on file is from Feb 9, 2026. Diners can read the low risk label as a sign that recent inspections have gone well.
The trend has not been favorable: recent inspections average around 13 violations each, up from closer to seven violations before.
Across the inspection history, “unclean building components, attachments or fixtures” is the issue that surfaces most often, recorded six times.
That puts the facility ahead of the local pack: the average Inglis restaurant scores 66. Nothing in the record is alarming, but there's room to improve.
