Stop in and enjoy a bowl of beef and corn chowder with coleslaw as we "pop up" at Heidelberg UCC. We'll be serving our fresh-made, locally-sourced soup from 6 p.m. until sold out during Heidelberg's HeidelBean Coffee House, held at 47 W. Philadelphia St. across from Central Market. 

Come in for Heidelberg's open mike set and stick around for a cup of locally sourced soup. Of course, our menu is always based on what's available from our farmer friends, so stay tuned for updates!
At Healthy World Cafe, we always feature our "eat what you want, pay how you can" philosophy. The ability to pay should never be a barrier to accessing delicious, unprocessed, healthy food.

If you'd like to volunteer to prep or serve for our First Friday "pop-up," we'd love the help! Volunteers can sign up through VolunteerSpot.

Because of the holidays, we will NOT be open for lunch in December. But did you know? You can donate to Healthy World Cafe at any time online. You can also make a tax deductible donation by check -- just write "Healthy World Cafe fund" in the memo line, and mail your contribution to:

Housekeeping items worth noting:
-- PARKING: When coming to the cafe for our Wednesday lunches, please DO NOT park in the private lots surrounding 1st Moravian Church.  You may park on the street (metered), or you may park at First Presbyterian Church at E. Market and N. Queen Sts., and walk one block west down Clarke Ave. to First Moravian (enter on north side).

-- TAKE OUT: Take out orders for lunch are available by e-mailing your selections (by 10 a.m. Nov. 20) to healthyworldcafe(at)gmail(dot)com.

-- VOLUNTEERING: Don't forget our switch to volunteer shifts for Wednesday's lunches: In order to better respect our volunteers' time, we'll be splitting the Wednesday lunch into two volunteer shifts: 9 a.m. to 1 p.m., and noon to 3 p.m. Feel free, of course, to sign up for both shifts, if you wish.

If you can't volunteer for an exact shift, hey, we understand that, too! We love that you're still eager to help out when you can. We would just ask that, after signing up through VolunteerSpot, that you'd send a quick email to sarah.e.chain(at)gmail(dot)com and let us know when to expect you. That makes it easier for us to plan out volunteer duties.
