It's quite dimly lit, with bare bulbs hanging on poles from the high concrete ceiling. Although it is essentially a concrete shell, the decor is quite decent. It seats around 40-50 people. There's a line of high backless stools along a counter at the window, but there's plenty of normal-height seating too including a couple of wooden pews along the back wall and even a sofa at the far end. |
They seem to have the same six categories of soup available each day (poultry, meat, fish, cheese, pulse and vegetable), with a rotating menu. It's good, chunky soup, with even the small portions being solidly filling. |

It's good, thick/chunky soup, with even the small portions being solidly filling. On [[Kake]]'s October 2011 visit, a small "cheese" soup (red pepper and goat cheese, £3.40 for a small portion) was fine, with thickness provided by puréed vegetables, balanced seasoning, and not overly goaty. I did wish they'd removed the pepper skins, but presumably this rather labour-intensive job wasn't possible at this price point. |
According to their website, they also do breakfast: porridge, pastries, cereal, etc. |

Accessibility: Step-free to get in, and it's all on one level once you're in, including an accessible toilet. The code for the toilets is printed on your receipt (non-customers wishing to use the loos are asked to pay 20p at the till, which goes to charity).
