About us
We exist for people who were told—directly or indirectly—that they had to choose between their faith and who they are. We believe no one should ever have been asked to make that choice.
At The Open Table, we gather around food, stories, questions, and real human connection. There is no stage, no purity test, and no expectation that you have your beliefs figured out. You are welcome here exactly as you are—curious, certain, wounded, hopeful, skeptical, faithful, or somewhere in between.
We believe belonging comes before belief. We trust that love, safety, and community are not rewards for right thinking—they are the starting point

Open Table: Juniper Botanical Bar
Juniper Botanical Bar, 5226 South Tacoma Way, Tacoma, WA, USLet’s start simply — and intentionally.
Join us at Juniper Botanical Bar for shared appetizers, easy conversation, and the chance to meet one another face-to-face. No agenda. No expectations. Just good food, good energy, and room to breathe.
This is a low-pressure, welcoming gathering for queer folks who move through the world with curiosity, spirit, and heart. We’re coming together to listen, connect, and explore what it could look like to build a community that truly reflects us — right here in the Tacoma/Lakewood area.
Come as you are. Stay as long as you like.
This is just the beginning. 🌱
