Seabreeze Dining

Our Seabreeze Dining Room overlooks beautiful Narragansett Bay in historic Wickford. Nutritionally balanced hot lunches are served Monday through Friday at noon. If you prefer a lighter meal, sandwiches are also served daily. View this month's menu (PDF).

The primary goal of the program is to promote good health. However, many people say the best part is making new friends and being reunited with past friends.

At Seabreeze Dining, holidays are celebrated with special meals and entertainment. There is also a special monthly birthday luncheon free with membership to the Friends of Beechwood (NKSA). 

Cost

Seabreeze Dining is for persons 60 years of age and older. Persons may also participate if they are under 60 if married to a individual over 60. Persons may also attend if they are disabled and under 60. Guests may attend who are under 60 years for the full price of $5.00.

Diners contribute to the cost of luncheon and special celebrations according to their ability to donate, but no one is refused a meal if they cannot afford the suggested donation of $3.00.

Meals on Wheels

Meals on Wheels is a vital and well-established program in North Kingstown. While we are able to provide meals for between 60 to 70 individuals on any given day, during the course of a month we will average serving 60 different individuals. This service attempts to solve some of the problems presented to older persons or individuals with disabilities who are home-bound. Convalescents can also be served, which enables them to return to their homes following a hospital stay. Meals on Wheels delivers nourishing food to homes Monday through Thursday (double meals delivered on Thursdays).

Because of the volume of need, our routes are broken down into three areas: North, South, and Middle. These meals are delivered between 11:00 a.m. and 1:00 p.m. Delivery of a meal once a day also means more than a meal to the recipients. The personal touch of a warm and friendly visitor can do wonders to brighten their day. To receive Meals on Wheels, certain criteria must be met and there is a recommended donation of $3 per day usually collected weekly. Again, as with Seabreeze Dining, no one is turned away for lack of payment. For further information on Meals on Wheels, please call 401-351-6700.
