Dew Drop Inn Thunder Bay

Dew Drop Inn Thunder Bay St. Andrew's Dew Drop Inn soup kitchen was established in 1981 to address the needs of the hungry in the community of Thunder Bay.

The Dew Drop Inn is open 7 days a week and currently during the pandemic we offer a cold take-home lunch from 9 am to 3:30 pm or a hot take home meal from 12:30 pm to 3:30 pm. We provide a safe, welcoming environment where hungry men, women and children can access food with no questions asked and are treated with respect and dignity..

Thank you so much to our friends from Merla Mae who stopped by yesterday afternoon bringing these delicious sundae cups. They brought over 200 sundaes for us to use in our Compassion Kitchen. How amazing is that!? If that wasn't enough they also brought by a variety of different items from their kitchen for us to use seeing that they are now closed for the season. Thank you so much for your many years of support and for the role you play in assisting us to serve a good meal each day.

WOW! October already? September was a busy month here at the Dew Drop Inn but not quite as busy as the previous year. We saw 12,222 meals served which was a daily average of 407 which is 11 less meals per day from the previous year. To feed over 400 people each day we could not do without the support from our community. Thank you so much to everyone who stopped by in September with donations & to everyone who volunteered their precious gift of time. We could not do what we do without you and we are so thankful to have you all on our team.

We have said it before & we will say it again. We have AWESOME neighbours. Our friends from Rowan Tree Collective are certainly a highlight of our week when they stop by Tuesday afternoons. Did you know this amazing group prepares many sandwiches for us each week to serve as an extra with our daily hot meal. If that wasn't enough they also prepare 100 sandwiches for our cold bagged lunches each week. Thank you so much for being such amazing neighbours and for the role you all play in our Compassion Kitchen. We are so thankful to have you all on our team.

Look who stopped by! Norina from Ling Lee's Chinese Cuisine stopped by this morning. Norina has been a long time supporter of us here at the Dew Drop Inn & never comes empty handed . Norina heard our need for our upcoming Thanksgiving meal and got us well prepared. Norina brought turkey gravy, mashed potatoes, baby carrots, stuffing & cranberry sauce for us to use. Last year we served 816 meals on Thanksgiving and we are prepared for another busy day. Thank you so much for your years of support and for the role you play in our compassion kitchen.

Thank you so much to Lisa who stopped by yesterday after the Thunder Bay District Labor Council Picnic. Lisa certainly did not come empty handed bringing 7 cases of hotdogs, hot dog buns, condiments and 4 cases of chips for us to use in our Compassion Kitchen. Isn't that wonderful!? Thank you so much for your assistance in helping us to serve a good meal daily. We could not do what we do each day without community support such as this.
