Health Dept. Releases December Restaurant Inspection Reports

The following Phoenixville businesses were inspected by the Chester County Health Department in the month of December. An important caveat: the language of these reports can be misleading, as they often describe potential problems as actual problems. For example, “presence of rodents/insects” could mean there's an infestation, or it might just mean the business in question left a back door open—which could lead to an infestation. 

The results of each of the county's 2012 health inspections are available here.
