Overview

Tea Room & Bakery at Cauley Square in Miami has been inspected 24 times with 198 total violations, averaging 8.3 violations per inspection — roughly 60% above Florida's statewide average of 5.2. The facility shows severe volatility: it recorded zero violations on December 4, 2025, but then accumulated 39 violations in a single October 10, 2025 inspection, with high-priority findings including employee health policy violations, improper food contact surface sanitation, inadequate cooking temperatures, and improper chemical storage. Chemical storage violations have been cited repeatedly across multiple inspections, appearing as a recurring pattern. Employee health policy violations (sick or improperly trained workers) were documented in at least three inspections within a six-month period in 2025. An administrative complaint was recommended following the March 6, 2026 inspection, which found 30 violations including hand-washing violations, allergen awareness failures, and shell stock requirement violations. The most recent inspection on March 13, 2026 found 6 violations and resulted in a Call Back — Complied disposition, but the facility's inconsistent compliance trajectory and high violation frequency suggest ongoing operational challenges.
