The Table: A Safe Place

The Table is a community kitchen with a heart to serve the South Side community of Pittsburgh, PA. No ID or check-in is required. Just come as you are. We serve a free, hot meal from 5:30 to 6:30pm every Tuesday and Thursday. Everyone is welcome. Meals are provided by various volunteer groups and churches from the Pittsburgh area and served at the Hot Metal Bridge Faith Community. The Table’s mission is to be a bridge between the kingdom of God and those we serve by creating community, building relationships and
loving one another.
