Medium Risk NYC Grade: B

Patis Bakery appears in inspection records four times, starting in 2023. On Jan 31, 2025, the health department conducted the most recent visit. The medium risk tier sits in the middle: not spotless, but not alarming either.

The trend has been favorable: violation counts have eased from around eight violations to closer to four violations per visit over the last few inspections.

“Evidence of rats or live rats in establishment's food” accounts for the largest share of issues, appearing two times across the record.

That's lower than the typical Brooklyn restaurant, which scores around 77. Nothing in the record is alarming, but there's room to improve.
