Overview

Starbucks Coffee #13236 in Bradenton has 5 inspections on record since August 2022, with violations focused on chemical sanitizer concentrations and employee hand-washing practices. A priority violation for inadequate sanitizer mix in the three-compartment sink and espresso machine wiping trays (testing at 0 ppm) was documented in August 2022 and recurred in September 2025, when quaternary ammonia sanitizer stored under espresso machines again tested below the required 100 ppm threshold — both instances were corrected on site. Hand-washing violations were cited in June 2024 when employees were observed not washing hands after entering the food service area or when changing tasks while preparing drinks and food; this represents a repeat of a similar finding from August 2022. A written procedure for vomit and diarrheal event cleanup was required in 2022. The most recent inspection on September 3, 2025 documented the sanitizer violation as corrected, with the establishment meeting sanitation inspection requirements.
