All recent local health inspections earn an ‘A’

Each local establishment that has undergone a state Department of Public Health inspection in 2025 has received a score of 90% or higher. 

In Twiggs, Wilkinson and Bleckley counties, 14 restaurants and food service facilities received a routine inspection so far this year. 

A score of 90 or above indicates “food safety excellence,” according to Georgia DPH. 

To operate, establishments must receive at least an 80 for “satisfactory compliance.” If a restaurant scores 69 or below, they risk closure if the score does not improve within 10 days.

One restaurant, It Takes 2 in Cochran, received their initial inspection and earned a perfect score. The hot dog joint’s grand opening was Feb. 14.
