High Risk

Going back to 2024, Voodoo Brewing Co has six inspections in the public record. The latest inspection on file is from Feb 2, 2026. Diners may want to take note: high risk reflects issues that a health inspector considered important.

Recent visits have flagged more than earlier ones: around 14 violations per visit lately, up from roughly three violations before.

The most common issue across all inspections has been “food-contact surface soiled with food debris”, showing up three times.

That's lower than the typical St. Petersburg restaurant, which scores around 77. There are enough flags in the record to merit a second thought.
