Colours Café at St. Joseph’s Healthcare Hamilton's West 5^th Campus has officially opened its doors to patients, staff, visitors and our community. 

Stop by the café for a cup of freshly roasted fair trade coffee, fresh sandwiches and other light snacks. 

Located in the new building, Colours Café provides meaningful employment opportunities for people with a lived experience of a mental illness or addiction. The café also has a unique layout; welcoming both our external community by way of entrance through the new facility’s public zone and our inpatients through the galleria zone.
