great selection and good soup!. ladles has a vast selection of not only soups butsandwichesas well! i've had both and have never been disappointed. the soup sampler is fun to get- $5.95 and you get to try 4 cups of soup and a roll. the last time i visited i ordered broccoli cheddar, loaded potato (with bacon, cheese & chives), buffalo chicken, and turkey chili. all were great, although the chili could have used more spice. my dad got a chicken salad sandwich and it was great. the place is very clean and the staff is friendly and accommodating. the first time i went there was no music on and it was a bit strange because you could hear other diners, the last time they had some nice feel-good music on making it for a pleasant atmosphere.
