Make sure you have a bag with you and be prepared to stand in a line. Other than that this is an excellent place you can get free food fresh that day from various business around town.

Look, I haven't been to The Free Store yet - I simply did not know that you existed! I am one of those people who finds it hard to ask for help, but I will try - you sound like amazing people, and this tells me that there is still some good left in the world. Some of us are living through the most awful hard times.

The best from the best people. Two volunteers a day give for free, for everyone that makes the line, 4 pieces of bakery (2 salty and 2 sweet) plus some fruit and sometimes big loafs of bred. The food comes from generous restaurants, bakerys and cafes that donate it every day when they finish as they are things that they need to sell fresh. One day REAL they served canapes while making the line.

Lovely people especially Breanna who made my first experience here wonderful and welcoming. Mad respect and love to all who put in their time and effort and hearts out to help those in need and the less fortunate. Keep up the good work. God bless all
