I’m amazed I never spotted this café in Capel street before. Well, in all fairness, it is teeny tiny, and only has a small sign outside… so I won’t take all the blame. But boy was I in luck, having purchased an online voucher for 5 euro which got me a soup with bread, drink and piece of fruit. I was expecting a boring aul bowl of soup, but I was surprised to see a very extensive menu — at least 10 different soups. And not just any soup, mine(Indian chicken, chickpea, lentil and rice) was more like a stew and very filling. It had just the right amount of spice. I can’t wait to go back as I saw some really tempting options on the menu. And a bonus: it’s mostly all healthy. Oh, and if you don’t like soup… don’t worry, they also do bagels, salads and sambo’s.

This was a steal. Takeaway coffee — the good stuff — for two euros, and two pretty darn good sandwiches with nice side salads for something like three euros each. Not a ton of seating — just two tall side tables — but there’s a nice table outside and there’s plenty of room in Dublin to take the sandwiches away and sit on a bench somewhere.

Great selection of soups. Great service. I would be there every day if I lived closer!

Recovering from a bad cold which completely neutralised my sense of taste and smell, I treated myself to a Fiver Friday special, the Massaman Chicken soup. I couldn’t taste anything(heartbreaking) but I just loved the feeling of the warm hearty soup nourishing my poor tired old bod. Food is medicine. Soup Dragon is proof.

This place is awesome. Honestly this is the restaurant I miss the most in Dublin. When I was studying here I made it a point to eat at the Soup Dragon as much as I could. If you’ve ever been to Dublin you know how good the food is everywhere. So there are a lot of delicious options to choose from. The only downside of the Soup Dragon is they close a bit early. Every time I was here I made it a point to try something new. I would also get a takeaway of my favorite soup. What was nice about this place is that even have complementary water. The water was classy and clean infused with fresh herbs or fruits. This is one simple recipe I took back home to the US with me. If you’re a traveler on a budget or just desire something delicious and nutritious please stop here.

I went there, as seen many good reviews. I offered a soup, size small. very disapointed, the portion was tiny, overprised and very average flavour. Lady serving the soup seemed enoyed, by me asking how the big and small size of the soup is. The place is tiny and cold. Will not return there.

Been there twice already this week! Great spot and great value, soup and a salad for € 7! Obviously soup is there business so you would expect a good selection, and they don’t disappoint, they have loads of options. My onlt criticism is that they’re on capel st :(the treck from abbey st(where i work) isn’t too far but on a lunch break time is of the essence! Its totally worth it though, and as the weather gets colder i see this being a regular spot for me!

Traveling from the US and stopped in for breakfast. Very VERY affordable. All meals less than € 7.50. Friendly service and free wifi. Portions are also large for breakfast meals and price. We got the Dragon Breakfast, poached eggs, and the yogurt pot. Coffee was also delicious. Highly recommend!!!

AMAZING soup and for such good value! Try the Roasted Pepper soup. It’s nice to see a place that know they make one thing really really well and stick to it.

Have lunch here all the time. Best tomato soup I’ve ever had. You get a piece of fruit as well to round it off. Very fresh. Delicious cup of hot chocolate too. Beef stew is always good.

I’ve been here some 20 odd times because it’s so close by, but I’m not really that impressed. The soups seem to have nice ingredients but all the ones I’ve tried are very bland. The € 3 takeaway option is a good value for money, small(veg) soup or salad, two small pieces of bread and a small piece of fruit, but it’s not very filling. They also have € 7 salads that I’ve purchased several times but they’re getting smaller by the day. The takeaway box has shrunk and now the new box isn’t even being filled. A bit disappointing to pay so much for a salad and not being able to fill up on it. On a side note, the lemon and raspberry squares are tasty.

I’m a big souplover and never had a excellent green curry soup as i had yesterday. Service is fast, cheap take-away food end the amount of soups is perfect :) Go again soon!

The $ 3 veg soup special is a great value for sure, but bring your own salt and hot sauce because both soups we ordered were really bland and we are definitely not salt-monkeys. The tomato/red pepper and the veg sausage gumbo. The bananas and bread were good though.

So happy my school is walking distance to Soup Dragon. The soup is always tasty, a healthy option, and the great price for take-away. Each day the menu changes with a variety of flavours, making it difficult to chose just one! In and out quick and easy. Feel free to stop by for hot drinks and yummy pastries too!

With soup in the name, I expected more flavour in the soup. I got cream of vegetable, and somehow could not taste anything specific in it. The fruit that was there was very nice though. I also got bread that was really nice, but all just plain white bread. Cute and nice inside, but really small, so don’t expect to go in with three and eat inside(there is outside but that is also small). The hours are a bit annoying because it is only for lunch.

Good price and generous portions. The lunch special gets you a heap of different breads and a fruit. Now… The place looks manky(it kind of is…) and the staff is closed and unpleasant. But I believe that a regular dose of something a bit dirty in your system will only make you stronger! Soups are always tasty and sometimes come with a mysterious kick to them… If –like me– you hate coriander, you’d better repeat it the entire time you’re there because it automatically goes on everything and not much can stop those chain workers!

Hands down the BEST soup I’ve ever had. Comes with bread and some fruit too, I I was way stuffed and SUPER satisfied. My favorite was the Thai Green Curry Chicken soup. It is incredible and mouth watering. I would(and have) considered going back to Dublin just for this soup.

Unbelievable soup, and for such an amazing price! And 3 euro on a student budget – wow. It’s a small vegetarian soup, but it’s a healthy portion, in addition to freshly made bread and a piece of fruit. I come here again and again and again. I can’t speak for their other food, but if you want cheap sandwiches, go to the Bakery near Cow’s Lane in Temple Bar, not here. During lunch they’re hellishly busy(lines out the door), but they work fast, especially if you pay with cash(please do).

If you go to a place with soup in it’s title and you order something that is not soup then prepare to be disappointed. I asked for the salami sandwich which cost € 5.50 as I was starving and I needed a lot of sustenance. I really wish I took a picture of the sandwich. It was two toasted pieces of white pan bread(was not asked if I wanted white), Brennan’s bread. Two slices of tomatoes. A few slices of salami. Lettuce. Some relish, loads of mayo and that was it. It would have to be the most loveless sandwich albeit ridiculously over priced sandwich for what I got. Get the soup. I won’t be touching the sandwiches, the local pubs do a much better job.

We’re talking steaming bowls of loveliness here, not the mystery vegetable stuff you get in the Kylemore Café. Cheap and tasty and in good sized portions, options include dahl Indian veg, roasted red pepper, tomato and goats cheese, spicy veg gumbo, thai green chicken curry, chunky chicken and corn chowder and chilli beef. Eat-in prices start from € 5.30, and you get a whacking hunk of bread and a piece of fruit thrown in for nowt. Good deal.
