Good rotating selection of homemade soups and salads at a reasonable price. Everything is tasty and made with quality ingredients and filling portions. They used to have seating but now have more take away options in coolers for a quick stop. Great for lunch year round.

Best soups ever! Clam and corn chowder is life changing. Employees are also always super nice. The soups are definitely on the expensive side ($9/pint), but totally worth it, they always fill the containers to the brim and give a couple delicious rolls! Lunch combo deal with a half tuna or chicken salad sandwich is the go-to!

I love New England Soup Factory and the soups there. The only complaint is that there’s only two and not more scattered in Rhode Island or Connecticut.

Classic soup joint with lots of character and nostalgia for the neighborhood!

This place has been my go-to place for quick and delicious soups for literally years. Their soups are always excellent, and I really wish they would open more places. I can NOT get enough of their roasted red pepper vinaigrette dressing, it is amazing, and I often tempted to drink it straight. When its on the roster you NEED to try the African Chicken & Peanut and the Gazpacho.Vegetarian options: Vegan and/or vegetarian options are available

Great soups. But pricey. .However, half a chicken and 2 side dishes feeds 2 people for dinner.

This is a great local place, very busy. The line seems intimidating but moves very quickly. I ordered the corn and clam chowder along with half a rotisserie chicken. The rotisserie chicken was okay but I really enjoyed the soup. Be aware that there are two sides for the store with two different cash registers, one only for soups and sandwiches and the other only for rotisserie chicken. They have no seating, only take out and plenty of parking.

I was very confused when I arrived. There's no seating are. I was looking forward to having a bowl of soup before my ride home, but that wasn't an option. So I ended up ordering a rotisserie chicken, red potatoes and salad. Everything was delicious to the point my husband said if I'm ever in that area again to pick up that same food.

Calm peaceful experience. Got the clam chowder and it was really good especially on a colder day. Staff is really nice.

The soups are delicious and for so many years they keep their level of good food. Butternut Barley & Kale Soup if you are vegetarian, or the chicken with maze ball for the rest. This is our family
