Winter in the City

SOUP IN THE CITY, 1-31 July

Who doesn’t love soup in winter? We’ve got a soup-er month of delicious, soul-soothing soups from your favourite spots around town!

Short on time? Street Soup will be popping up every Thursday & Saturday throughout July, for those moments when you just want a grab-n-go fix.
