From-Scratch Meals

Warm, Inviting Atmosphere

A Meal that Gives Back

Eat with a purpose

A new way to dine. A new way to give back.

Discover Greene County’s five-star community café, where great food meets a greater purpose. Our “Pay What You Can” and “Pay It Forward” models make quality meals accessible to all.

We Believe There Is a Seat At The Table for Everyone.

At One Bistro, our mission is simple: to provide a place where our neighbors eat and come together as one community. We serve Greene County’s wealthiest and most vulnerable alike. In a community where 1 in 4 children faces hunger, One Bistro is a place where everyone eats with dignity.

What makes us different?

we serve more than food — we serve hope, love, and connection.

Fresh Ingredients, Big Flavors

Not a Soup Kitchen—It’s Quality Dining.

Handcrafted meals using fresh, locally sourced ingredients. From comforting soups to savory specials, we’re committed to exceptional flavor and health

A Community Connection

More Than a Meal—It’s an Experience.

Neighbors gather at One Bistro to enjoy great food and build relationships. Whether it’s a business lunch, family dinner, or a mission-driven meal, everyone dines with dignity.

Purpose in Every Plate

Every Meal Lifts Someone Up.

With meals priced affordably at $6–$9, everyone can enjoy a delicious meal. Pay what you can—whether it’s the suggested price, a little more to “pay it forward,” or through volunteer service if you’re unable to pay. At One Bistro, every plate serves a purpose.

Every Meal Tells a Story – Here’s How You Can be a part of it:

1

Dine With Us

Stop by for lunch or dinner and enjoy scratch-made meals in our warm, inviting café.

2

Pay What You Can

Our Pay What You Can Afford concept is at the heart of everything we do:

Pay What You Can Afford – Contribute the suggested price ($6–$9), more, or less—every dollar helps.

Pay It Forward – Add a little extra to your bill to cover a meal for someone in need. Just $6 provides a full meal.

Pay with Your Time – If you’re unable to pay, volunteer your time to earn a delicious meal.

Because everyone is provided a wholesome meal in a space where dignity and community come first.

Leave Full – In Every Way

Leave with a full belly, a full heart, and the satisfaction of helping build a stronger, more connected community.

Ways To Pay It Forward

Every act of generosity—whether dining, donating, or volunteering—helps us build a stronger, more connected community.
