My wife and I attended the food bank yesterday (9/12/25) and everyone was so sweet and helpful but one lady named EVA really stood out above the rest. Eva was do sweet and helpful. My wife and I are handicapped and she helped us tremendously. She assisted my wife with picking out a few items and she made the whole experience very comfortable The Store House should be really grateful to have such an employee/volunteer as Eva. The whole staff could learn from her but again, thank you all. read more

The Vacaville Storehouse - The Store Front - Food Banks Near Me - Vacaville, California

They changed the way food is being given away. Brought someone on Tuesday and was told there is no longer shopping inside. They also no longer provide bags to put food in. They offered monthly bag which is mainly canned goods. We're told to wait inside until the group of 12 is called, then go outside for produce. They only have you inside about 10 minutes but wait outside till called in. We felt like a herd of cattle getting the last bit of food. Food was smashed & unappealing. Refuse to return till things change. Used to love their services. read more

What an amazing establishment to get involved with. This organization is filled with volunteers, serving more that 100,000 individuals a month. That's HUGE! The work they do comes from the heart. I true labor of love. To be a small part of this and help by being a drop off location for them during holiday season is so heartwarming. My Favorite thing is how they honor our Military. I highly recommend you getting involved. I hope that those who are utilizing this assistance see it for the blessing it is. It takes a village. I am proud to share all that they do with my peers. Thank you Rachel and Mr. Beaty for the leadership you have in contributing to something much great than yourselves. read more

The Vacaville Storehouse - The Start of a wonderful friendship. - Food Banks Near Me - Vacaville, California

There's not enough parking so folks end up across the street or blocks away. It's a challenge to manage several heavy bags 4 blocks to the car. I'm 70 and the attendants make no provision for me to manage getting my bags there. We really gotta get a plan for helping folks. Longer hours would help so people can get in & out more quickly. A trolley to the various parking lots nearby would be great, or a new location with adequate parking. Even a cart, wagon or wheeled basket would be awesome. The food donations are usually very good. The small prepared meals in cardboard trays are my favorite. I love the baked goods from Panera too! They always seem to have ample supply so clearly the marketing team has done well to build alliances in the community. read more

What an amazing organization! The people who work there are so kind and helpful. I love that they go to neighborhoods to provide food for people and other services for whatever reason that they need those services. I have a friend who is an adult who is developmentally disabled and she receives services from them in her apartment complex. I am so grateful for their commitment to our community. read more

This is a great idea and helps a lot of people. A majority of the staff are very friendly and helpful. The manager is very professional and very fair. It is the few who are rude and sometimes profile us that ruin the 5star rating this establishment should be getting. There were several instances that shocked me and makes it difficult to even go here, but then again, sometimes people have to accept the fact that others will always look down on them, see them as a threat, as criminals, profile them. One time, in the outdoor market, I helped an older lady with her groceries and when I tried to return to get mine, I was told I can't, because I had gone outside already. Ever since that crazy incident, I just don't help anyone anymore. Ones, I was asked if I had been inside already, before going to the market (This was before the tickets). When I asked the guy, "why are you only asking me and not anyone else?", he didn't reply, but kept his eyes on me. It's very intimidating. Last Friday, a lady, pulled the box of garlic off the cart, while 2 asian ladies were still taking some. When I tried to get some, she said "you're with them" and didn't let me get some. This is profiling and the irony is the lady being black. I've seen people of all races take more than they need at this store and no one says anything, no one embarrasses them, like this lady embarrassed this 2 Asian ladies, with others watching. To profile asians specifically, or any other group, is just wrong. I think it's against the law. We are given 2 bags to fill. If that's filled, you go out. That's the rule. If you're going to embarrass people because you don't like what or how much they put in the bags, then please make that a rule before embarrassing people. Don't embarrass people just because you don't like what they look like, the color of their skin or how they talk and what they choose to take. We can go on and on. Just because Asians talk to each other, doesn't mean they all live in one house together. This could be a very high 5 star rating, but the experience I had last Friday, was unnecessarily and should be addressed. I am a retired military and likes to enjoy life. This program gives me and others like me, the means to enjoy it better. Some of the items, I give to others in need, who can't go to this place. It is a wonderful idea and hopefully the legacy is not tainted by ignorance, rudeness and racism. Thank you for reading this. Reading this is half the of the solution. The other half is totally up to you. read more

I'm a senior and wish this group would offer a senior day. I get jostled about by children & other ladies who show no concern at all for my frailty. There's seldom parking nearby so I have to walk several blocks to a car or bus stop. It requires several trips but no one is able or soiling to help with my bags. If it opened at 10 and stayed open for 4 hours we could all saunter in & get our goods without the pressure. There's time pressure and it's set up like a relay race. So often I miss great items cuz I can't see them nor can I move fast enough to get across the room to it. Please storehouse: SET UP A SENIOR DAY ONCE A WEEK read more

A mostly good experience to be had by our less fortunate. Local businesses are very generous to this food pantry and most items are fresh. The older staff are stable, helpful and responsive. The new ones hide under a tent in the parking lot and leave food in the sun. Parking is limited so carpool if u can or expect to walk several blocks. It would be very helpful to create a carry out service as cars or buses are quite a distance away read more

I took my disabled client here today to pick up a monthly supply of food we were let in and waited in line but when it was time to get her food we were literally trampled on people pushed us people stepped on her they rammed into her walker with complete disregard for her disability. The staff was great but I'd really suggest a separate time for disabled adults that can't grab and shove like animals. read more

The Vacaville Storehouse is a community outreach program of The Father's House (TFH.org) located in both Vacaville and Napa. When I showed up to donate some clothes the food bank was open and the line was quite long. The staff was friendly and efficient. The food and household supplies were plentiful and the staff seemed genuine, friendly, and humble. If you have any gently used clothes, or appliances that you no longer need please consider donating them! read more

What a great idea god bless the people that work here. I read one of the reviews with a one star and the lady was complaining she had to wait 45 minutes. That's a poor review and an entitled person to say that. I'm grateful they serve our community and help these people in need. I would like to volunteer here. read more

Great people volunteering for the good of the community. Food is distributed from the site during posted hours as well as directly to the neighborhoods that need help the most on Saturday mornings at 11am. What I like best about the Storehouse is while it is sponsored by a church, The Father's House, there is no religion thrust down people's throats in exchange for receiving food assistance. These volunteers genuinely are there to love on the community. They wear t-shirts that say "We Love Our City" and they are sincere about it. read more

Nice idea and I sure it helps a lot of people but both times we have gone he have gotten there 45 to an hour early to be able to park and because they use a random number system we have ended up in the later group and not much left. They hand out one small bag and so many bring their own much larger bags and stuff away . People were very rude and I was almost pushed down. Children were reaching over me after parents were told not to let children pick food. They grabbed all they could get their hands on. The staff seems wonderful . And if you just go once a month you can get more. We are just needing some help right now and appreciate the service but not sure I can stand the greedy people that go there . read more
