La Cantine des Arbustes

An initiative by Refugee Food.

At the heart of La Cantine des Arbustes, a third-party food aid center in Paris (14th arrondissement), focused on accessibility to quality food: the space transforms throughout the day to offer a unique culinary and human experience, adapted to the needs of each individual! In the morning, the restaurant is open to all, while in the afternoon, the canteen becomes a shared kitchen for local families living in social housing.

Much more than just a place to eat, this welcoming space — where solidarity and kindness prevail — fosters social inclusion by bringing together a diverse community.

 Here, everyone is welcome, everyone eats the same thing, but not at the same price 💛 

The production manager, accompanied by 6 volunteers, prepares the same fair, tasty and balanced cuisine for everyone. Only the price varies according to individual resources:

Free for scholarship students (levels 5 to 8) and recipients of social benefits

Tarif préférentiel (carné 6€, végétarien 4,50€) pour tous les étudiants, sur évaluation des minimas sociaux ainsi que pour les résidents du foyer de migrant au-dessus de la Cantine

Reduced price (€6 meat / €4.50 vegetarian) for all students (based on eligibility for social benefits) as well as residents of the migrant housing above the canteen

Are you eligible for free or reduced fares? Come to the ticket office to apply and assess your situation with the team!
