High Risk

Mr Express has a thin inspection record, with only two visits on file so far. Inspectors last stopped by on Oct 24, 2025. The high risk label is a heads-up that the most recent visit didn't go well.

Things have been moving the wrong way, with the rolling count rising from around five violations to closer to 11 violations per visit.

Looking across the full record, “observed that there was no hot water during the inspection so” is the recurring theme, flagged two times.

The city-wide average sits at 84, which Mr Express' 37 doesn't quite reach. Taken together, the history suggests a facility that has struggled with consistency.
