More than just a soup kitchen, we are dedicated to providing not only meals, but also a community hub where guests can relax and recharge. We are open five days a week, serving 500+ meals each day.
On-site volunteers have the opportunity to connect with their neighbors by cooking, serving food, and bussing tables. Off-site volunteers make sandwiches, bake treats, make birthday bags and more. Learn more about volunteering here.
We provide a safe, welcoming space to gather in a low-barrier environment. Guests have the space and time to rest or play cards, make art, sing karaoke, and do other social activities.
A social worker is on site to help guests connect to services. We host community agencies on weekly schedules, providing mental and physical healthcare, employment assistance, addiction services, and more.

100% of the food we serve is donated or rescued, sparing thousands of pounds of good food from landfills each year. Food rescue benefits the environment and values the time, effort, land and other resources used to produce food. The City of Cincinnati Green Plan shared that in 2021, Cincinnati sent 12,592 tons of food waste to landfills, while 33% of our local families remain food insecure. It is a source of great pride for us that every bite of food we serve is rescued or donated. Learn more about our food rescue efforts here.
