Gumby’s temporarily closed due to health code violations

Many live roaches were found in the kitchen

As of Thursday, March 9th, Gumby’s Pizza on Tennessee St. is temporarily closed due to 3 high priority health code violations, and 8 other lower-priority violations.

The high priority violations included the live presence of multiple roaches found throughout the kitchen during inspection, dead roaches littered through the cooking area, and 30 gnats freely flying around the dough and ingredients where the pizza is made. Other violations appear to be repeat offenses, some to do with water damage and chemicals near food prep areas.

Gumby’s is a keystone establishment of FSU, and the news of it’s shut down has already inspired tweets from all around the city, including local personality Greg Tish.

Gumby’s official Twitter has yet to make an announcement, but all health code violations must be cleared by Friday, March 10th in order to for them to reopen.
