When it’s cold outside or you just want food that warms your body and soul, soup is the perfect meal. Instead of slaving over soup recipes or figuring out cooking times with your slow cooker, why not support a local business and get a bowl of your favorite beef broth or french onion soup at one of the following restaurants in Utah County?
In compiling the following restaurants, we wanted to choose businesses that may not readily come to mind. So while Zupa’s and Kneaders are great places to grab a bowl of soup, we went with more unique alternatives. So pull up a chair and prepare yourself for some delicious liquid sustenance.
