At Brunswick Street in Fortitude Valley, Hare Krishna Food for Life or "Krishna's Cafe" provides very low cost meals of Krishna prasad.
For many who eat there, it is a welcome relief in their state of financial shortage. Others, who have no apparent poverty, eat there just because the food is so good. One "down and out" looking youth was overheard commenting that the yuppies seem to think it is cool to be seen eating at Food for Life.
Food for Life has enhanced public respect for Hare Krishna devotees in Brisbane. City managers and others have often praised the devotees for this selfless work.

On the 23th of November '96, devotees celebrated Feed the World Day, making a giant Krishna cake and distributing it in the Fortitude Valley Mall. City Council Alderman David Hinchcliffe helped cut the cake and presented a speech extolling the valuable service Hare Krishna Food for Life offers.
