You can receive food by visiting the food pantry or soup kitchen when it’s open. Make sure to check each resource page to see details like address, full schedule, and requirements.
Delivery services are very limited and are reserved for senior citizens or those with serious medical problems. If you believe you fall into either category, let us know and we may be able to help you find options in Brookdale.
Every location is different! Please review the details included on each resource to see whether you need to bring any documentation like ID or proof of address, or supplies like bags to carry the food. If you don’t see any information on the resource, you don’t have to bring anything!

**We give out food and cleaning items every Sunday from 1 to 3 pm, rain or shine. If pantry guests arrive at 2 pm, the line is shorter and there still is plenty of food. We are open on holidays.
For people who are unable to visit the pantry in person due to disability, we deliver groceries to homes during weekends. This depends on how many volunteer drivers we have.
We are located behind the building at 4225 Connecticut Ave NW, Washington, DC, in an alley off Veazey St. NW. We are next to the Van Ness Metro Stop on the Red line on the east side.
**People can text NW Community Food at (202) 743-5770. Our website is: https://nwcommunityfood.net.

Every location is different! Some places in Brookdale accept appointments, some require it, and others allow walk-ins. Please review all details on the resource page to understand how you should prepare for your visit.
Food pantries offer grocery-style items such as canned food, fresh produce, and dry goods like pasta or rice that you can cook yourself. Soup kitchens offer ready-to-eat items like hot meals or sandwiches. All of these locations may have different options on different days, so it is hard to tell what each one of them will offer any given day.
Pantries may have different options at different times, so it is hard to tell what each one of them will offer any given day. Most pantries in Brookdale do give out some form of vegetables, but they may be canned items.
