Free Meals

Free Meals in Bronx, NY, offers a vital service through the New York City Department of Education by providing daily access to three free meals for all New Yorkers in need. With over 400 Meal Hubs across the city, individuals and families can conveniently grab their meals without any barriers. Operating hours are designed to accommodate everyone: meals for children and families are available from 7:30 am to 11:30 am, and adults can pick up theirs from 11:30 am to 1:30 pm. There are no requirements for registration or identification, ensuring that no one will be turned away. Each person can collect three meals at once, with options including vegetarian, halal, and kosher choices at selected locations. Please note that meals are to be enjoyed off the premises, and parents or guardians can pick up meals on behalf of their children. As we adapt to changing circumstances, meal hub locations may vary, so visitors are encouraged to check for the nearest site using the program's lookup tool.
