Free food in the Bronx
The Allerton Allies Community Fridge
A community fridge is a public refrigerator that anyone can take food from and anyone can add food to. Ours sits at 2527 Boston Rd, Bronx, NY 10467, and it belongs to the neighborhood.
How it works
Take What You Need. Give What You Can.
There is no gatekeeping of any kind. Walk up, open the fridge, and take the food you need for yourself or your household.
Anyone can take
No form, no ID, no income check, no questions. If you need food, it's yours.
Anyone can give
Neighbors, local businesses, and volunteers stock the fridge with food that meets our guidelines.
Everyone keeps it safe
Check condition before you take something, don't leave anything you wouldn't eat, and report problems to us.
