Join us at the Newcomb Community Center for nutritious, home-cooked meals and a welcoming place to connect with others in the community. The Essex County Meal Site is open to adults of all ages, and everyone is welcome.

Reservations Requested - Please make reservations as soon as possible (at least one week in advance).
Many guests like to check the weekly menu online and let us know which dates they plan to attend. If your plans change, you can always call to cancel — even on the day of the meal.

Programs and Community Time
Come Early, Stay for Lunch
The Newcomb Community Center hosts regular programs and social activities that pair perfectly with lunch at the Essex County Meal Site (i.e. Bingocize, Social Club, etc.). Guests are encouraged to attend scheduled programs and stay afterward to enjoy a meal and time with others.
Community Time
On select days, including Fridays, a more relaxed and social meal experience may be offered. Guests are welcome to stay, visit, and socialize until 1:00 PM.
