Mount Paul Community Food Centre

Very kind place. Everyone is so helpful and caring.

Soup kitchen open on Mondays and Thursdays. The food is amazing and the serving staff are very friendly.

All of the salads have bugs. Most of the food isn't great as I pick up for seniors and disabled people who all tell me the food is terrible. There are always fights in the line up as clients are rude and I feel on edge attending this location. I agree with the others as the smoking is a huge problem and most of the time it is the dark haired guy with glasses and a leather jacket who rides the scooter with red trim.

Free food good cooks always the best smoothies friendly and helping and they care.

A wonderful location supporting individuals and families in Kamloops to learn about food and cooking.They have a low cost lunch Tuesday and Thursday that is delicious!

Great people, community minded

I have to agree that the cigarette and marijuana smoke is over whelming and now sadly at every entrance so one cannot even get in the lot. I have observed verbal violence between people in the food line on several occasions. I have reported acts of violence but the staff/volunteers don’t do anything about it as of course the people suddenly act all sweet when they pick up their food at the table. I stopped taking my kids with me out of safety concerns and now rarely go at all. I feel for those handicap people who are vulnerable and subjected to abuse from other clients. The food hasn’t been that great every time there is chicken or turkey I am crunching on bones and cartridge, I have founds many of hairs and egg shells in my food and often the soup is overly spicy. They refuse to list any possible known allergy foods. It’s unfortunate they don’t put more care into preparing the food therefore most of the food I get goes to waste. The smoothies seem to be a big hit with all.

It's really disappointing to see that clients who knew and followed the rules of not smoking on the property for years at the past Soup kitchen and Mount Paul church has changed with the new Food Centre. I have continually asked the staff and volunteers for a year now to make it safe for everyone to access and am always met with non compliance. The staff member told me last week that he was not the smoke police. Meanwhile disabled persons with respiratory diseases are now expected to walk through smoke and the entrances and exists and even on the side walk in front of the windows and doors but what was most horrendous was when a guy sat parked with his truck door wide open standing beside his truck right in front of the food table at the centre doors and assaulted the entire line up of 20 people with smoke. Everyone should be able to access food safely and with integrity! Because they continue to do nothing it has been getting worse and worse. They need to get on board with a non smoking policy and step up their game.

Amazing organization that truly cares about the community.

Helping the community ! With healthy food from Awesome volunteers !!
