The MESH Café evening meal program occurs nightly, Monday through Saturday, from 6:30pm to 8:30pm. All Cafés personalize their delivery of hearty meals, comfort and inspirational conversation but often included with the meals are essential personal items, daily newspapers, live music, and wellness check-ins. From September to June, the Cafés feature an evening meal consisting of an appetizer, salad, entree and dessert. During the summer months of July and August, the MESH Café operates three days a week (Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday) featuring a lighter fare of salads, sandwiches, casseroles and fruits. The MESH Cafés close for vacation beginning the fourth Monday of August and re-open on the second Monday in September each year.

The MESH Café program is a safe violence-free facility and strives to maintain an atmosphere of civility at all times. All guests are welcomed and required to sign-in upon admittance to the Café. Last call for dinner and seating is 7:15 pm. Weapons (guns, knifes, etc.) are not permitted under any circumstances. Persons entering the Café possessing these items will be asked to leave the premises and banned from future admittance. The MESH Café staff includes a professionally trained security person. A collaborative relationship with the Montclair Police department encourages their unannounced non-invasive tours of the Café program. Every effort is made to provide guests arriving after 7:15pm with a take out meal or restaurant voucher when available. Detailed Café dining rules are displayed at every Café table and reviewed nightly.

MESH is currently only providing grab and go bags at the Salvation Army building at 15 Trinity Place in Montclair.
