Big Big Table Community Café

Big Big Table Community Café uses an innovative participation-based model providing everyone access to healthy food in a community setting where people can be nourished with dignity while contributing what they can—time, money, or produce—to the operation of the café. Our mission is to provide a dignified response to hunger in our community, providing Buffalo with accessible and affordable nutritious meals, regardless of how the diner chooses to contribute. Big Big Table (BBT) brings a sustainable social enterprise model to WNY, building community by addressing a common experience: hunger. We are a pay-as-you-can lunchtime restaurant, committed to feeding people, reducing food waste, and bringing people together in the process. Our motto is: “Everybody eats. Everybody gives. Everybody matters.”
