Gwinnett Dunkin' Donuts Fails Health Inspection (ICYMI)

LAWRENCEVILLE, GA — Spoons that were being used to make coffee were being stored in sanitizer water, according to a failing health inspection report for a Gwinnett County location of Dunkin' Donuts.

The doughnut shop, at 4955 Sugarloaf Pkwy. in Lawrenceville, scored a failing 69/U on the inspection, which was conducted Tuesday.

Inspectors found flies in the kitchen, which they said was caused because the drive-through window had been left open between customers.

An ice machine had what appeared to be mold in it, two employees of the restaurant had not signed required health agreements and two hand sinks were found without paper towels, according to the report.

A prep cooler was not keeping food cold enough, one employee was wearing a string bracelet and another was wearing a ring with a stone in it.

The restaurant's last inspection report was not displayed at the drive-through and employees' personal items were found being stored throughout the kitchen.

The Dunkin' Donuts location had scored a 99/A on its most recent inspection, in February and a 76/C during an inspection a month before that.

A foll0w-up inspection has been scheduled for June 30. If problems at the location have not been fixed by then, inspectors could close it down until they are fixed.
