Twice each month we open to simulate a free, full-service breakfast restaurant for community members experiencing homelessness and food-insecurity. Guests are greeted at the door, seated by a host at a table with a linen tablecloth, orders are taken by a server, and a plate of nutritious and delicious food is delivered for their enjoyment. We create a community dining experience that recognizes food insecurity does not define a person and their worth.

Thanks to our amazing volunteers and donors, since its founding in 2009, the Crescent City Cafe has been a place of compassion and hope, where guests are served delicious meals with dignity, barriers are broken, and neighbors experience the joy of serving together. The Cafe has served over 23,000 meals and logged over 50,000 volunteer hours. And there's a role for you to play! We depend on the generosity of people like you to provide these meals and this experience.

Also, we are expanding and opening a Pay-What-You-Can Community Cafe! We have a fabulous and successful operation twice a month, but here's what we're really aiming for - opening a daily community cafe where all are welcome, regardless of means.
