In addition to serving high-quality beverages & fresh fare featuring locally sourced ingredients, our social enterprise cafes provide on-the-job training to youth and adults facing barriers to employment. Proceeds from our cafes support living-wage jobs and our work to fight hunger differently here in DC. As of 2025, there are three DC Central Kitchen locations:
Marianne’s by DC Central Kitchen at the MLK Jr. Public Library (901 G St NW)
DC Central Kitchen Cafe at THEARC (1901 Mississippi Ave SE, East Building)
DC Central Kitchen Cafe at the Klein Center for Jobs & Justice (2121 First St SW)
