In San Francisco, CalFresh (Food Stamp) benefits are distributed via the Electronic Benefit Transfer (EBT) debit cards, known as the Golden State Advantage card. The EBT card is like any other debit card, it offers users privacy when making purchases. Food Stamp EBT cards can be used to purchase food at many San Francisco grocery stores. In addition, elderly, disabled or homeless food stamp customers may purchase meals at various San Francisco restaurants through the Restaurant Meals Program at a local farmer's markets (see below).
CalFresh Restaurant Meals Program for the Elderly, Disabled or Homeless
If you are elderly, disabled, or homeless, you can use your CalFresh/Food Stamp EBT card to purchase prepared food from restaurants registered with the CalFresh Restaurant Meals Program. You need to ask your CalFresh Worker to code your EBT card so that it will be accepted for payment for hot meals at participating restaurants as shown below.
Currently there are over 60 neighborhood restaurants participating in the CalFresh Restaurant Meals Program. You can use your CalFresh EBT card to purchase prepared food at the following locations:
