This week, Church’s Chicken in Foley rules the roost when it comes to the a lot of local diners without a lot to crow about.

Church’s in Foley has our lowest score this week, only 75 out of 100 possible points. Remember, 85 and higher is considered passing.
Elsewhere, The Mexican Bakery located on Commercial Drive in Foley. Inspector's October 28tjh report shows violations, including no hot water. While they worked on repairing the problem, employees were also reminded to properly sanitize the dishes.
