Souper Cafe

Nice ambience, walk up service. Terrible grilled cheese, good potato/​corn soup. Advertised as bacon potato, didn’t taste it or see it. I won’t come back…

Food what was expected — pretty good. However, service seemed an inconvenience to employees, as if we as customers were a burden. Not many non-​diary options as far as soups and when asked for substitutions on sandwich, it seemed like a hassle. Also could be kept in a little better shape, papers on the floor, etc. Has great potential but falls short!

I often forget that this exists, despite it being less than .5 miles from my house. The décor is open and let’s in nice sunlight and is casual. It’s never very busy there when I go in. The menu isn’t hugely extensive, and there aren’t many vegetarian options (and I don’t think any are vegan?). The price point is a little high for the quality, but it’s better than any greasy fast food joint down the street.

Souper Café is pretty good, especially the broccoli cheese soup. The staff seem rather inattentive towards customers. It’s exactly what it seems, a simple soup restuarant, nothing more extravagant than that.

Was really good when it opened up a few years ago. Décor is so so. Service was good in the past, but lately they have short time employees that are more concerned with socializing with each other than actually serving customers. Disappointed this restaurant has gone downhill.

This is one of the best places to grab lunch in Bay City. The modern interior is nicely furnished, with an upscale casual feel. Ordering is done cafeteria style with a wrap around counter that guides you along: salad — soup — sandwiches — condiments — desserts — checkout. The line can sometimes be intimidating around the 12p-​1p lunch rush, but it moves fast and the staff hussles to serve everyone efficiently.
All of the soups I’ve tried were delicious. They have an authentic made from scratch taste and travel well if you’re taking out. They typically have 6 – 8 kinds of soup at any give time, which are rotated out so the variety changes day to day. Sandwiches are made to order and taste fresh. If you’re dining in, beverages are self serve so refills are free.
