In response to the ever-present housing crisis and to provide a warm and welcoming experience to friends in need, the Cathedral Café, in partnership with St. Matthew's House, The City of Hamilton, and Hamilton Out of the Cold, is open from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday to Saturday. Our commitment includes providing 2 meals per day - a continental style breakfast from 9:00 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. and lunch from 12:30 p.m. to 3:30 p.m. In addition, our guests have access to washrooms, relief from inclement weather, and a variety of activities, services, and programs.
