However, there are exceptions, including the following: 1. People who learn Torah regularly in a shul may eat in that room, if leaving to eat would take time from their studies; 2. A seudat mitzvah may be held in a shul, but most authorities require that the meal not be lavish; 3. A community which has a great need to feed people in a shul temporarily, may do so, if they are outside of Israel; 4. Caretakers may eat in a shul while carrying out their duties.
