City health inspectors shuttered a Brooklyn College cafeteria for two days after finding roaches, mice and filth flies.
A Tuesday inspection flunked the Boylan Hall cafeteria, citing a smorgasbord of violations, including unsanitary prep areas and signs of mice and roaches.
The “full-service food court” — which includes pizza, a deli, Mexican food and sushi & sashimi — is operated by Metropolitan, a food-services company contracted by the college.
Joseph Gallopini, the director of campus food services, said inspectors gave the cafeteria a clean bill of health Wednesday night after his staff cleaned up “mostly mouse droppings.”
Brooklyn College students vented their disgust on social media.
“I saw a huge roach getting eaten by a swarm of ants in that cafeteria. I’m so glad it was shut down it was disgusting,” Christina RC posted on Facebook.
“Even when it got an A, it still had some serious issues; such as rats and cockroaches, but apparently they still managed to pull an A. I wish my professors were lenient like those Health inspectors,” quipped Jacob Esses.
In October 2012, Hunter College’s third-floor cafeteria was briefly shuttered by the city for “vermin activity” and City College students threatened to boycott the school’s cafeteria in April 2011 after health inspectors found several violations including “evidence of mice,” DNAinfo.com reported.
