Trinity Cafe Nebraska is open to anyone who needs a free meal. No registration, no ID, and no questions asked. You can simply walk in and take a seat.
Meals are served 365 days a year. Lunch is served Monday through Friday from 11:30 am to 12:30 pm. Breakfast is served Saturday and Sunday from 9:00 am to 10:00 am. A drive-thru distribution option is also available outside for those who prefer it.
Guests receive a hot, nutritious meal served fresh by volunteers. A typical meal includes a salad, an entree, a drink, fruit, and snacks to take with you. The kitchen is run by a chef who prepares fresh, nutritious dishes daily.
Walk in and take a seat at any table. Volunteers act as wait staff, bringing food directly to your table. When you're done, the next guest is welcomed in just like any other restaurant. There's no need to call ahead or make an appointment. A drive-thru distribution window is also available outside for a quicker option.
Feeding Tampa Bay, which runs Trinity Cafe, also offers SNAP application assistance, benefits navigation, food assistance guidance, and connections to other community resources. You can ask for help at any of their locations.
Some reviewers have also mentioned that clothing and toiletry items are sometimes available, and that device charging outlets are accessible on-site.
