Low Risk NYC Grade: A

Across the available record, Dunkin has four inspections on file, the first dated 2023. On Jul 9, 2025, the health department conducted the most recent visit. A low risk tier reflects an inspection that turned up minimal issues.

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

Looking across the full record, “non-food contact surface or equipment made of unacceptable material” is the recurring theme, flagged three times.

That puts the facility ahead of the local pack: the average Bronx restaurant scores 77. There isn't much in the file that would give a customer pause.
