Meal Pickups

Through this different time and until for as long as we can, we will be doing meal pickups every Friday from 4-6pm. The location in Oakland will be specified each week.

Preorders open every Wednesday and stay open while stocks last, stay tuned to our Instagram stories or Facebook stories for reminders and all kinds of content.

Thanks to your food and merch orders, we’ve been able to give away several meals every week since we started this model in mid-March to food and drink industry people out of work, or anyone else going through a rough patch. We’re in this together. Thank you for your support!

After you’ve ordered, look out for an email (usually sent out Thursday night or Friday morning) with a reminder of pickup info, as well as storing and reheating instructions for your meal.

We hope you are well!

QSN Mission:
Our mission is to strengthen local queer communities across the country through sharing space, sharing food and contributing to something bigger than ourselves. We believe that we are strongest when we are joyful and generous, together.

Founded 2017 in Brooklyn by Liz Alpern, each event raises money for a community org, highlights the talent of queer chefs, and nourishes our community by gathering in an atmosphere of authentic inclusiveness.

Started in Oakland in March 2019, QSN Oakland has hosted 4 events raising over $9,000 total for Bay Area LGBTQ and food justice focused non-profits. And we're just getting started.
