Kamloops has more dining choice than its size would suggest — the universities and the steady flow of through-traffic on the Trans-Canada keep the restaurants busy. The strongest concentration is along Victoria Street downtown, with Italian, Japanese, modern Canadian and a couple of good burger and brewpub options. The interior's stone-fruit and ranch beef show up on most local menus in summer. For groceries, the Brock Shopping Centre and the Saturday Farmers' Market cover most needs.
