Canteen

Canteen is a pay-what-you can community restaurant serving affordable, delicious and nutritious food.

Currently in pop-up, Canteen is managed by Frome Food Network: it is a project set up be, and for, the Frome community to improve wellbeing and access to responsibly-sourced, well-cooked food; bridge the gap between local food and local people; and generally further a sense of togetherness.

Canteen is inspired by projects and concepts such as The Long Table, The Big Lunch, the comforting but somewhat short-lived British Restaurants of the 1940s, and the National Food Service.
