The closure came after repeated food safety violations that were found to pose a risk to public health.
The Abu Dhabi Agriculture and Food Safety Authority has ordered the administrative closure of a café branch on Abu Dhabi Island after inspectors identified repeated food safety violations that posed a risk to public health.
The authority said it issued a closure order against Galleria Café LLC – Branch, located in the Zayed Port area of Abu Dhabi Island and operating under commercial licence number CN 4237302.
The Abu Dhabi Agriculture and Food Safety Authority said the café had breached Abu Dhabi’s food safety laws and related regulations, adding that its practices posed a threat to public health.
According to a food control report, the decision followed repeated food safety violations and the failure to implement effective corrective measures, prompting immediate action to protect consumers and ensure food safety.
The authority said the closure will remain in place until all violations are rectified and the facility fully complies with food safety standards. The café will only be allowed to resume operations once inspectors confirm that all corrective actions have been completed.
The Abu Dhabi Agriculture and Food Safety Authority said the closure is part of its ongoing efforts to strengthen Abu Dhabi’s food safety system through regular inspections of food establishments and proactive measures aimed at protecting consumers.
The authority also urged the public to report suspected food safety violations or concerns about food products via the Abu Dhabi Government’s toll-free number, 800555, so that inspectors can take appropriate action.
