An 'American Lunch'


Meet our food truck, 'American Lunch.'

American Lunch began as a school project for our owner, Charles Morgan's son, Chatham, a student at the University of Alabama. Morgan saw a need to make a mobile soup kitchen that could travel to where the needy gathered, places like shelters and high traffic areas. The truck has served meals in Tuscaloosa, Birmingham and now Athens, with plans to follow a new store opening in Tennessee. The truck sets up at various locations such as libraries and parks, multiple days a week from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m.
American Lunch serves delicious, hearty food from beans, rice, and garlic bread to home made chicken noodle soup. The truck has one simple goal: to completely run out of food. Volunteers who work the truck love meeting all of the truck's visitors and more importantly gain satisfaction from seeing the looks on people's faces after enjoying a hot, filling meal.
We believe there is nothing better than good food and goodwill!
