High Risk

With just one inspection in the record, there isn't enough history to establish a clear pattern. Inspectors last stopped by on Jan 28, 2025. The high risk label is a heads-up that the most recent visit didn't go well.

When inspectors have written things up, “food & non-food contact surfaces cleanable” has been the most frequent reason, cited two times.

That's lower than the typical Cumberland restaurant, which scores around 88. Taken together, the history suggests a facility that has struggled with consistency.
