AccessCafe is an all-volunteer, nomadic restaurant that serves food on a donation-basis. We aspire to make healthy food and social space accessible to all. This is community supported dining.
Our goal is community outreach — to cultivate connections between the diverse populations that live within San Francisco’s Mission District. Further, AccessCafe aims to educate populations about affordable, nutritious, plant-based food. We seek to bolster wellness in people, relationships and communities by creating an atmosphere of nourishment, sharing and trust.
We offer community members the opportunity to prepare and facilitate AccessCafe. We need people to organize. We need people to food prep and set-up the space the day before the event. We need people to come to our volunteer potluck (hosted the Wednesday night before our Sunday event) and sign up for a volunteer position. Volunteer positions include serving, dishwashing, bussing, expediting, plate presentation, cooking. These are examples of non-monetary contributions.For those who wish to offer payment, AccessCafe does not have fixed menu prices. Instead, patrons pay what they believe the dining experience was worth. Larger contributions will help cover smaller contributions.
