Some of the soups can be a bit oily and rich. But most are ok.There's a lot to choose from. Very hearty soups with lots of ingredients, vegetables and stuff... Supposed to be healthy but I'm not sure what exactly is in the soup. I find the portions are too small! But they must use some kind of filler like cornflour or starch or something to try to thicken it and make you feel full. They taste really good though!!You can ask for a bread bowl and have the bread but usually the bread is too tough (

You can ask for a bread bowl and have the bread but usually the bread is too tough (that's why the soup can stay in the bread) to chew.
They have sandwiches as well but I haven't tried those as they seem to be very over-priced for just sandwiches!
The service is usually very fast and efficient since the queues can get long really quickly during peak hours. The staff are quite patient and polite and friendly and will try to answer your questions about what's in the soup, etc... no in-depth explanations of course!
Was busy tucking in and was short of time so didn't take photos of the soups we had! We've been here a few times so we've tried a few of their soups. We like the bread that comes with the soup but it might be better if there were TWO rolls instead of just one small one!
We can recommend the Ministrone with Gremolata, the Mushroom Stroganoff, the Homestyle Chicken soup, the Beef Goulash, the Tomato soup, and of course THE Simon and Garfunkel Ragout, oh, and defnitely the Tokyo Chicken Stew.
You can upgrade your meal to include salad and drink. But beware - the salad does NOT come as it looks like in the menu. Sometimes the quality is not consistent and some days they soups are better than other days...
Good for cold rainy days...
