The vendor operating the cafe at Darien YMCA, received a “C” rating, the worst in the town A-B-C ratings system, in the most recently released town Health Department inspection reports.

As a result of the Aug. 30 inspection, the cafe was told to immediately stop using the machine and not to use it again until fixed.
