This is a soup for you review. I have never been to a service at Bethany Lutheran Church. I love how hospitable the services. It's definitely not sporting a standard soup kitchen Vibe. People are treated with dignity and respect, and I trust that it is a safe environment to relax in. Seconds are available, and they usually have an abundance of sides and desserts. They also have other events such as a sing-along, haircuts, and other surprises! I have suggested this place many times and brought friends! I hope this is a program that can continue for years to come! Edit: Unfortunately, I had an incident that has to bring my rating down, for the sake of safety. I went to a volunteer to help me with someone that approached me, and the volunteer had no skills and no confidence in handling the situation. That is a huge cut to the level of safety in the space.

Monday - Friday 11am - 1pm An innovative model, pay-what-you-can community soup kitchen --you are seated and served with dignity. Organic ingredients, Peace Coffee, kindness, infinite love. Amazing souls here. For those who know.

I've had the Corn Potato Cheese, Tuscan White Bean and one other, but want to go on a day they are serving the Mulligatawny or Cuban Black Bean. I'm not much of a soup or vegetable person, but am impressed by the taste, robustness, and freshness of the soups. This is my new favorite place for lunch (11-1pm, M-F only). It's casual, but service is good, they bring the soup out to your table, come around to refill water, ask how your experience was on the way out, and are very polite. It's a little hard to find, and runs towards an eclectic clientele. Price is very, very, very reasonable. Well, actually it's free. It's a soup kitchen. And while it's in a church basement, and there's lots of Lutheran ladies helping out, it is not your mother's soup kitchen. Their thing seems to be about making a space for everyone, including foodies and people without money. There's a donation bowl, and I think sometimes you can buy quart jars to go for $9, and they also do some kind of soup "food share" you can buy into. Depending on the day, according to the facebook page they also have made French Provencal Mushroom Barley; Madrid Lentil; Cuban Black Bean; Russian Cabbage Borscht; Mulligatawny; and Cream of Potato with fresh dill, sweet onions caramelized in butter, sour cream and chives. It's in Bethany Lutheran Church.
Such a magical place!
