Dublin Food Pantry is a nonprofit food pantry that has served the Dublin community since 1976. It provides neighbors in need with nutritious groceries, fresh produce, hygiene products, baby essentials (such as diapers and wipes), and other supportive resources in a dignified, choice-based shopping environment. The pantry also connects visitors with partner organizations that assist with housing, healthcare, and other basic needs.

• You can come once a month for a full shop and once a month for produce (going forward it will be produce only.
• We will give out random numbers close to our start time to determine the order in which people shop (lottery system). We will no longer be first come first served.
• Customers coming in after the lottery will be given a number as they enter the building. You will still need a photo ID and proof of address.
• If it’s your first visit of the month we will give you a blue number tag for a full shop. We will also give you a ticket that lets you know how much of each item you can take.
• If you’ve already visited the pantry this month we will give you a green number tag for produce.
• Only one person from your family can go into the shopping area. For safety reasons children are not allowed in the shopping area (except the produce only area).
• If you are a proxy picking up food for someone else you can only shop for one family at a time.
• Please bring your own reusable shopping bags. As many grocers are no longer giving out bags anymore, we don’t have enough.
• First week of the month is very busy. Come later in the month for faster service.
• If you see any ways we can improve as we make this change, please let us know.
