walk-in

Just show up

A walk-in is a space you can enter on foot—a walk-in closet, walk-in freezer, or walk-in shower.

The term also describes customers or patients who arrive without an appointment: The clinic accepts walk-ins.

In espionage, a walk-in is someone who voluntarily offers to spy, appearing uninvited at an embassy or intelligence office.
