Fri, Mar 22nd 2019 at 12:45 pm - 2:00 pm
We meet as usual for lunch.After lunch our guest, Ciara Barrett, will talk to us about the work of the Magic Hat Cafe, which describes itself as an "Anti-food waste pop-up cafe" and operates in Byker Community Centre on Friday evenings
Magic Hat Cafe website says:
We’re in Byker every Friday 5.30-8pm running an anti-food waste pop-up cafe. All dishes are made from 100% surplus ingredients and served pay-as-you-feel! The cafe is at Byker Community Centre, just 5 mins walk from Byker metro and close to the Ouseburn.
We run a full table service each week, plus take-away for those who want to come and collect some food rather than sitting in. If you can bring your own container that would be amazing, but if you can’t don’t worry we’ve got you covered.
Everyone is welcome to our cafe, in fact the more the merrier! We’re currently trialling how sustainable a regular cafe is in preparation for getting our own place so please come see us and show your support!
Just like all of our events our regular cafe is pay-as-you-feel – pay what you want for the food, how you want! We accept donations of time, money and skills, or simply tell us what you thought!
We’ve got the most eco-friendly dinner in town so come eat with us to help fight food waste! Good food and good vibes at Byker Community Centre, every Friday 5.30-8pm.
