About the meal
Menu
The dinner menu changes nightly and is prepared by a different sponsor group from around the area.
Safety protocols
For the safety of all guests, volunteers and staff, there are metal detectors at the front door. Weapons are not allowed inside. Capuchin brothers, staff and security guards are around to help keep everyone safe.
Visiting groups
We sometimes have people from the Milwaukee Continuum of Care, Health Department or other organizations to help you. There are student and volunteer musicians who sometimes come to play music during dinner. Sometimes a photographer from St. Ben’s is taking pictures for the website or for Facebook. Our staff will ask before taking pictures, but please let us know if you don’t want to have your picture taken.
