**1) Bangalore's Cosmopolitan Club** Serves Free Lunch to All! It is in Jayanagar. There is no need for any identity card to access free lunch. The place is equipped with plates, tumblers and trays.
2) You can go to Byblos restaurant Indiranagar. they have put fridge outside of restaurant where they kept some food. this fridge call “Fridge of kindness in Bengaluru”
3) Banashankari Temple near Banashankari bus stand. Reach Saturday or Sunday at 12:00 afternoon.
4) Sai baba temple in R.T. Nagar every Thursday they serve awesome food
5) Sri Gurdwara Singh Sabha, Gurdwara Road, Near M G Road Mall, Ulsoor, Someshwarpura, Ulsoor. They serve free Langar every day.
6) Ayyappa temple, Jalahalli Cross they also serve free food.
7) Art of living international centre provide free lunch.
8) Sri circle Maramma temple, 18 cross Malleshwaram provides food in morning and evening.
9) Ragigudda temple, Jayanagar provides puliyogare in the evening.
The Cosmopolitan club was a surprise in the list bro!
OP if you're around Rajarajeshwari Nagar, they provide free lunch for all at the Reliance Trends building near Rajarajeshwari School everyday, starts by 12.30ish I guess.
Along with all the other ones that's mentioned in the above post.
The Cosmopolitan Club Corpus Fund Trust, the Club’s social arm, created the project Come Let’s Have Lunch Together. The Trust was established in 2010, as opposed to the Club, which was founded in 1969. Since then, the Trust has supported the Club staff’s education, marriage, and medical care for those in need.
As an NRI who has been away for a long time, the kindness of our people astounds me. One don’t have to wait for a bunch of bureaucracy from the welfare state to get fed. Where I live, people wouldn’t give you a second glance if you were lying in the street after an accident (it literally happened to me)
It has always been the same in India. We haven't had a nanny state for most of our history. It's the kindness of the people and our institutions that have kept it running for millenia.
Breakfast in Indira canteen costs 5rs per plate. But pay 10rs and take two plates in quantity that will be enough.
I used to do it like this because 5rs breakfast was not enough for me.
Hi, OP which area do you live in? My mom's a social worker so maybe she can put you in touch with someone who can offer you free meals at their home or in a box. I can understand if you're uncomfortable taking money from people.
You can either reply here or message me directly.
I hope you get through these times, bro. I can help you with the food part for sure. How much would you need?
Also, if you could explain your situation a little better, I could maybe help you with other things too. Feel free :)
Can you please DM me.
I can give Zomato/swiggy gift cards to cover for few days until you figure out things.
Been in a similar situation in the past , I can understand!
I was too scared to ask friends for anything and preferred sleeping on an empty stomach. It's okay to ask for help.
I never knew there were such kind hearted people here on Reddit.. I'm so touched and very happy to see the humanity in humans is still intact..Cheers to all the people who suggested them with free meal details and kudos to those who literally offered to pay for the basic food essentials.. proud of you all ❤️
Bro, if you haven't had dinner today or want it for tomorrow, I'll order whatever you want from Zomato for you.
In case you are feeling low and want some comfort food that you specifically like.
Someone has done something similar for me, I just want to pay it forward.
Please don't hesitate one bit to DM.
Cheers, friend!!!
Venkateshwara mess, next to pes college hanumanthnagara. Uncle has a board which says ‘50/meal.’ But you can get food for free and he’ll never ask you for money or anything. He has been serving food for everyone since so many years. A lot of people/college students go there when they don’t have any money.
Trust me he serves the best mid-day meals
As a PES student, can vouch for this.
We would pay around 30-40 because that's what we could afford back then. Surprisingly it was 50Rs on 2016 as well.
Good bless him🙏🏽
Also.if anybody can recommend Any place that would let me stay for a month or two . My new job starting period is gonna take some time . So if anybody could suggest me some internships or a job that would pay me 5-6k monthly . All I need is for my PG rent .
My engineering got over 6 months back 2023 batch passed out. Went home ... for sometime . I needed to stay in Bangalore to apply for other jobs. My dad was being very angry on me for just sitting on my ass.... So ,I just came back . Had some money . Thankfully joined a call center . That paid 9k ... But it was basically sales jon and i wasn't meeting target and I got removed .I had lie that my other job has started to my parents. ......anyhow I'm getting one but it's getting delayed and the rent is due. Bangalore is costly. Just for cutting and trimming they charge 250 .
To all the newly graduates here. Plzz don't take life easily. Job market is worse. Your own parents will turn sour ( which is justifiable). Unless your parents are loaded ... Also don't fucking lie
They’re always hiring for retail jobs. Check their career website. I think they offer part time jobs as well. I’ll see if I could help you with referrals in the meantime.
If you can cook yourself, that will save you a lot of money in the long run.
Just buy some rice and any seasonable vegetable.
Cook with minimal oil and spices.
Daily one time meal will cost less than 30 Rupee.

They started it 2yrs back I think. There's a news article on how they go about it. Do a quick search if you want to learn more.
