Soup’s On: 4 Places To Ladle Up in Barrie
Find Amazing Soup At These Local Gems
The best soup in Barrie is like a big hug in a fuzzy sweater.
Comforting, warm and perfect to shake the colder weather blahs. And with the temperatures taking a decided downturn later this week as October approaches, it’s a good idea to get the spoons ready.
And if Seinfeld taught us anything, it’s that mastery of even a simple soup is essential for chefs everywhere.
Here’s 4 spots to ladle up in Barrie!
LAZY TULIP
One of Barrie’s fav eateries, the Lazy Tulip is a prime destination for a bowl of deliciousness. The Tulip has moved to a new locale for takeout only, but it’s well worth the trip.
Using fresh and locally sourced ingredients, the lunch menu offers a daily soup (served with foccacia)
And if you opt for Tapas, you get a shot of the good stuff.
Cocina Mexicana
Offering a little Latin flavour for your midday warmth, Cocina Mexicana actually has a four spot of soups on their menu – Caldo Tlalpeno,Caldo de Pollo, Pozole & Sopa de Tortilla.
All four provide a zesty option for Mexican food lovers who also pray at the church of the ladle.
The Bull & Barrel Pub
You would be hard pressed to find a heartier broth in town than the Bull’s Ale & Onion Soup. Braised onions swimming in ale and chicken stock, with croutons & three kinds of cheese – if that doesn’t warm you up on a crisp day, see your Doctor.
The Bull and Barrel also provides a ‘Soup of the Day‘ whipped up from scratch every day. The committed soup lover (henceforth known as a soup-er) should play it safe and just get both.
And if that still doesn’t entice you, there’s always the traditional Irish Guinness stew…
Bohemia
Another of Barrie’s coziest spots, Bohemia’s menu is a trip through hotness. Oh get your mind out of the gutters…we mean the coffees and teas!
Beside the terrific assortment of java, there is a daily delectable soup pick. Prepared fresh, it’s the perfect antidote to a chilly day.
Bohemia’s one of the more charming spots in downtown, with a cosy patio to boot.
