Feeding the Front Line, a complimentary meal program for workers front and center in the fight against the coronavirus pandemic, is being moved to the St. Paul RiverCentre due to high interest and demand.

Morrissey Hospitality started the program March 18 at the St. Paul Hotel and has been giving out hundreds of free meals a day to first-responders. Organizers say the move to the RiverCentre provides more space to work, allowing them to also now offer meals to health care workers and ensuring additional safety.

Beginning Wednesday, meals will be offered from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. seven days a week with through May 4.

Morrissey Hospitality has a management portfolio that includes the St. Paul Hotel and several restaurants, including the St. Paul Grill and Pazzaluna in downtown St. Paul.

“Our partnership with St. Paul RiverCentre, the St. Paul Hotel, US Foods and Visit St. Paul will enable us to take care of the people who are on the front line taking care of the community,” Morrissey Hospitality President Richard Dobransky said in a statement.

Interested participants can place an order by texting 612-900-5145 with their name, employer and the number of needed meals. Parties will be notified within two hours via text when their order is ready for curbside pick-up.

More information on the program and daily menus can be found on St. Paul RiverCentre’s website and social media channels, as well as Morrissey Hospitality’s Facebook and Twitter pages.
