We offer hot, inn-house made meals consisting of a lean protein, vegetable, and whole grain starch or potato. Our Soup Kitchen is unique in that we also offer a fresh salad bar daily with several varieties of healthy offerings: fresh veggies, whole grain salads, eggs, tuna, or chicken, cheeses and ranch or vinaigrette-style dressing. Lemonade, Ice Tea or spring water is also available. Guests are given their choice of sandwich at the end of their lunch as their 3rd meal of the day.

Sunday meals are provided 5-6 pm courtesy of local community church groups.

A Soup Kitchen with much more than food on the menu.

Meet Emily Harrison, Dining Room Manager  

She runs one of the friendliest soup kitchens one might encounter.  Having worked at local restaurants as a chef, Emily brings a talent for preparing and serving healthy, great tasting food to work with her every day!  Having been a part of our community for years, her own experiences have made it possible for her to understand the stress and complications of our guest’s lives. We are lucky to have her!
