Food Service

The Community Kitchen serves three meals a day every day of the year.

We hope the meal will serve as a starting point, helping build a foundation from which a person can begin the path to self-sufficiency. Individuals and groups are needed to serve.

Location:
727 East 11th Street

Instructions:
Please enter the Chattanooga Community Kitchen main entrance through two doors located under a green ‘Chattanooga Community Kitchen’ awning
