On any given day in New York City you will find more than 10 different soup options avaialable to you at Hale and Hearty. Often choice can be to much for most but the wonderful thing about this place is you are more likly to learn something about your palette if you take a chance on some new.
One thing I want to be sure and mention is the Internet web ordering system. I use this almost everyday and love the simplicity. It stores your favorites and emails you when they are on the menu. The ordering process is a no brainer and it is there in 30 minutes or less.
If you're a New Yorker seeking lunch daily as I am or you are visiting from out of town go here. Look, I suspect if you're visiting you will see the Mac Donalds. I know, its comforting, deny it this time and try Hale and Hearty.
