The chicken pot pie soup was flavorful and well-seasoned but only had 3 or so pieces of chicken in the entire pint. At $9 a pint, this was disappointing. I also ordered a cup of another soup and expected to receive 3 rolls (2 with the pint and 1 with the cup) and only received two. Overall, I wouldn’t consider it great value for the money.

I am recovering from the flu (2 weeks now!) and a friend dropped off a container each of your chicken soup and your tomato-butternut-corn soup. Plus a bag of crusty rolls. I had the chicken soup last night with one of the rolls. Absolutely delicious! I love the fine noodles & there were nice chunks of carrots & chicken, plus perfectly spiced. This friend had been singing your praises for a while and had planned on taking me there for awhile. I am a fan and look forward, when I am feeling better to visiting your place in person!👍

We stumbled on NE Soup Factory and it was a great find! There doesn’t seem to be any seating - so we ended up eating in our car in the parking lot and we weren’t the only ones. It’s just that good. We ordered 4 pints (16oz) of clam & corn chowder. Generous, rich, flavorful chowder paired with a fresh roll is heavenly pair. Honestly, the square rolls of fresh bread were a stand alone and we’d go back just for them and they’re complimentary with the soup! Prices for their soups are reasonable. While not a criticism, I did find myself wishing they would consider a chowder version without the corn. When we looked them up on the internet we found NE Soup Factory was created in 1995, by husband and wife team Marjorie Druker and Paul Brophy. The containers have an endearing story/dedication from

No seating but excellent take home food; a lot of variety in the daily specials as well as frozen soups that store well at home. It's not always obvious to customers that NESF has a Modern Rotisserie next door with further comfort food menu options.
