Munich Soup Kitchen in München

As a soup lover, I decided to try it when I saw the queue in front of Viktualienmarkt. Wow, the Vegetable Soup was so good on a cold day, with a slice of bread. Definitely come for your lunch and crown it with a soup. What beer is to summer, soup is to winter.

October 2025: We came here again one year later (2 days in a row) and had the same great experience. This time, we tried other things on the menu. Not everything is in English though so very basic A1 German may be needed. November 2024: Friendly staff and well priced soups. They have even have butter chicken and chilli con carne. There is an English menu on the wall on the inside. It is very popular with locals and tourists. There is an option to tip if paying by card which is weird since it is a self service restaurant (i did anyway as the lady was nice).

Super delicious soups 😋 Bread and pretzels always available, and everything freshly cooked. Sustainable quality

I had the carrot-coconut-ginger drink. It's a warming place on cold days with its atmosphere and soup. Prices range from 7 to 10 euros.

I recommend the goulash soup and a glass of beer. Huge selection of soups.

Super delicious soup, ready quickly, and good prices. For our short visit on a rainy day, it was super pleasant to sit and warm up under the roof and eat.

This is the only hot soup place around here. This time I ordered chicken soup with bread (the black one was a bit sour), which wasn't a good match, but it was the cheapest, so I made do with it. The soup is Taiwanese-style, but quite salty. The meat is tender and tender, so it's generally acceptable. If you like hot soup, come in, get it to go, or buy a bowl to take home with a deposit.

Typical Munich market atmosphere, the queue is quite long from 12:30 p.m. but the service is fast and the food is fresh and tasty in all simplicity.

It's what it is – and it's really good. You go, order, pay, and have your soup in your hand in seconds. Perfect when you're in a hurry. Large portions, everything under 10 euros. From chili con carne to chicken tikka masala, but also classic beef or chicken broth with fritters – mine was great, cleanly cooked, hearty, and honest. Of course, it's not a five-star meal, but for the price, it's unbeatable. Fast, hot, good – period.

I tried the goulash — a flavorful yet well-balanced soup, complemented perfectly with bread. At $8.40, it’s a satisfying and comforting combination that works really well together. the staffs are very friendly

Ate some very good goulash soup. Spicy and delicious. Just what we needed in today's weather.

The taste is excellent and the price-performance ratio is very good. A plus for me is that the food is served in proper porcelain soup bowls, not disposable ones. If you want to take something to go, you can bring your own or rent some for a fee.

Super delicious and a wide selection IMMOKAI - Your real estate agent in Munich

Came here for a late breakfast and had the coconut carrot soup with a slice of bread on the side. I think the price was 6.90€ so not too expensive especially considering the location though tbf it's also just a bowl of soup. Anyway the soup itself was good. Not spectacular but a nice and balanced flavor. Overall good spot for a small meal and I wouldn't mind trying another one of the soups.

If we lived in Munich, we would visit the restaurant often because of the very delicious soups. In two consecutive days we tried four types and we liked all of them in terms of quantity, quality of the products and rich aroma. If we come to the city again, we will visit you again with pleasure for the comfort food. Warm greetings from Bulgaria.

Something "lite" before Oktoberfest. Best goulash I had so far. It's rich, thick and uber savory.

The goulash soup last Saturday was large and excellent. Super fresh, slightly spicy, and simply delicious!!! I'll order it again and again.

At the Viktualienmarkt, I ate a delicious goulash soup with fresh bread at the soup kitchen—truly delicious and highly recommended!

Chicken soup with noodles and pumpkin soup Total 15.3 yuan~ It's not very filling; you might want to add extra meat or something else! But the chicken soup is drinkable straight up and not too salty. The pumpkin soup is saltier, so you might want to dip it in some curry-flavored bread! The chicken soup is quite satisfying for Taiwanese soup lovers 🈴

Goulash was too good, worth the waiting time for sure.

The goulash soup was way too salty. There was hardly any goulash meat, and potatoes were used instead.

really nice spot for a delicious soup and a beer! staff were lovely and service is really fast I reccomend the daal highly!

Great soups, something for everyone, and good prices.

Love the soups! Came back to have the chicken soup. Had the goulash the first time. Delicious

Great food and great service, definitely worth a visit

At the soup kitchen at the Viktualienmarkt, I had to wait in line first – and yes, that sometimes takes a while, but honestly: where there are lots of people patiently queuing, there's usually something good to be found. For me, that's a sign of quality. The goulash soup was served in a small bowl – unassuming from the outside, but what was inside was something special. The soup itself was a blast. A hearty goulash, deeply flavorful, with a sauce that had just the right consistency: not too thin, not too thick, but just enough to make you want to dip your spoon in again and again. The small potato cubes were particularly good, giving the whole thing a earthy feel. Nice and soft, but not overcooked – just enough to retain some structure and perfectly complement the buttery meat. The flavor was wonderfully balanced: a light acidity that added freshness, a subtle spiciness that added warmth, and the meat, so tender that it almost disappeared as soon as you put it in your mouth. Together with the succulent sauce, this made for a combination that was simply a joy. The bread that came with it was unfortunately bone-dry. The goulash soup completely won me over and was definitely worth the wait in line for.

The liver dumpling soup is highly recommended.

Chicken noodle soup was very tasty

It was better a few years ago. But it's still good for a quick snack and for any soup lover.

Amazing! If you love soup this is your place.

There are various delicious soups here for a quick break. Very good and very tasty.

I tried chinken broth with German ravioli and meat it was good

Healthy, delicious soup for 6.5 euros

Very good soups in a pleasant environment, good prices, shelter.

Edit: please stop asking people to contact you via email. It’s Germany, and everybody know what this is done for. For those who don’t, well they’ll learn the hard way when they receive a threatening lawyer’s letter. If you really want to improve, google search authentic recipes and don’t take shortcuts. By the way, there was at least 10 more chunks of carrots on top of the ones in the photo. Original: I’m not sure what this was, but it certainly wasn’t African chicken curry. And, I’ve only found 3 tiny pieces of chicken 🤷🏼‍♀️ The staff were rude as well!!

it's not worth for the price and the tips

The soups were delicious. The value for money was excellent. The service was also more than satisfactory. We had carrot/ginger/coconut soup and potato soup. It was so delicious that we ate there again the next day. Thank you for that.

All dishes are delicious. We had the carrot soup, chicken soup and chili con carne - all was excellent.

This restaurant specializes in a variety of hot soups, including spicy, meaty, and vegan options. Served with bread or pretzels, everything is delicious. The staff is friendly and helpful.

One of the best Gulaschsuppe I had in a long time, also at a fair price of 8.5€, I recommend getting it with a Bavarian Pretzel. Absolutely delicious!

I had goulash soup, it was super tasty. Around 8-9 euros (just the soup) a bit pricey but the soup is quite filling and has a lot of flavour and ingredients

Very good lunch in Munich. I highly recommend it.

It’s a must when in Munich for a goulash and a veggie soup! 😻

The only disadvantage is that there is very little space, and you often have to wait, but the line moves quickly as it is more of a snack bar than a restaurant. Great value for money. Location right on the Viktualienmarkt. It was a big portion of Chili Con Carne, and also I would recommend to try their Soup, chicken broth with noodles or vegetables 🍲

If you like soups, this is the place for you. In the middle of Viktualienmarkt, this place serves the best soups in hearty portions.

I have a bonus card from the Munich soup kitchen. I was just about to show it when they said it was no longer available. The response was, "I was just out of luck with the points on it." It's a shame. I always enjoy going here, but after the unfriendly response, NEVER AGAIN.

Very nice Karotte-Kokus-Ingwer soup. The sales lady was extremely nice too

Fast food with soups in the center of Munich. There is a place on the street where you can sit and eat, but not much. Many soup options on the menu, I took goulash. Overall, good for its price. I would like a larger portion and more meat. Tasty, but there were pieces of meat with fat. I was also confused by the offer to pay a tip when paying, although there are no waiters or service here

Extremely speedy service, tasty food (loved the spinach lentil curry), very cheap, and a nice lively ambience thanks to its location in Viktualienmarkt. Definitely recommend if you’re in the area although it may be hard to find a seat

I had carrot coconut ginger soup and beef soup + noodles, and pretzels. It seems like Koreans eat a lot of goulash. The carrot soup is yellow and the ginger flavor spreads when you take a bite. People who like ginger will like it. I think I’ve had the beef soup in Korea before? Or not? It seems familiar? Or not? But my husband, who is a K-man, said it was so delicious that he sprinkled chili powder on it and drank it. If you’re tired of the sausage + bread combination, try it once. I was curious about the taste of goulash, so I went back the next day to eat it. Haha I took a spoonful and immediately added plain rice! It was so delicious that I emptied the bowl. I can definitely see why Koreans eat a lot of goulash. This is a recommended restaurant.

The carrot coconut soup was amazing. Would die for the recipe to have and bring back home with me. Great snack or light lunch amongst all the stalls. Better for earlier meals as the whole market starts to shut down around 5pm.

Huge portions, good food and such a nice spot to sit

Loved the goulash and tomato soup!

Ate 3 large bowls of soups by myself because it was that good! Simple, rustic, wholesome and absolutely delicious! The perfect meal for a rainy day and the prices are very cheap for the great quality.

Great value, great pretzel, great soup!

Don't miss the opportunity to try wonderful soups at this outdoor restaurant. On one day I tried chicken and red curry soup and on the second day the carrot-ginger-coconut soup. The cost is around 7-10 euros depending on the soup.

Best soup in Munich. Everything is good and my fav one is ginger coconut soup.

Great soup and lots of choice. In full market.

Always very good for a spontaneous lunch in the middle of this beautiful city. Keep it up and take good care of yourself!

Delicious! Quick and easy makes you full and happy, what more could you want. The lady at the counter is really sweet and nice. Meeting people from every level is a MUST when you are traveling in Munich

Amazing soups!! Reasonable price

We tried a couple vegan soups on a cool wet day. Perfect

Don't leave here without trying their soups. Pretty good goulash my favorite

Best soup ever!!!! Carrot ginger coconut soup

Great location for lunch break! Everything is there for vegetarians, vegans, small and large appetites! The chili sin carne was very tasty and is highly recommended! Happy to come back 😊

The quality decreased significantly, the broth tasted like it was extremely watered down, had no flavor, and it wasn't even lukewarm. I want a hot soup with flavor again.

On every trip to Munich we were regular customers at the soup kitchen at the Viktualienmarkt in Munich. Today we were there for the last time. The quality has decreased significantly in recent years, the broth tasted as if it was extremely watered down, without any flavor, and it wasn't even lukewarm. Since we always give a second chance, we went again this weekend and the taste experience was the same. But the prices have risen. When paying, it should be pointed out that there is now a deposit on glasses. We hadn't read the note in the hustle and bustle at the checkout and simply handed over our dishes. Too bad!

Vegan tomato soup was great and very affordable. Service was ok.

Great fresh soups… veggie w chicken👍🏻👍🏻 and next day I tried leberknödelsuppe (liver dumpling) which was quite strong but delicious

Delicious, full of meat and potatoes goulash soup. Very well spiced and smelling crazy good. The service was really nice and staff friendly. 10 euros for the soup and pretzel, which killed dmy hunger for the whole day. Cosy place in the middle of the local market.

A real iconic place. The unique atmosphere of a simple but very soulful place. Plus a hot bowl of hearty soup that gives you energy for half a day. The quality/price ratio is very high.

Beautiful, old and traditional restaurant, try the vegetable soup with noodles

A taste that Koreans can’t help but love! It's a bit salty, but if you add rice to the goulash soup, it feels like mixing rice with rich tomato curry!! Best value for money 👍

Quick attention. Strong, warm and comforting food. Good stall in the market.

I had sausage soup and it was really delicious. A taste of comfort in Europe

Delicious soups to warm the body after a morning of freetouring

I give them 5 stars, we liked it a lot. The price-quality relationship 👍👍👍 We have gone to the place they have in the Viktualienmarkt market, although this place belongs to a fast food restaurant chain, but it is of good quality. There are several locations in the center of Munich. Everything we bought was delicious. The Franciscan beer is great! Fast service, very polite girls, they understand and speak English well. There were many free seats at the tables, quite cozy. We have ordered chili con carne with rice and chicken tikka with rice. I liked chili con carne better - it's delicious. The prices they have are about 6-10 euros per dish, quite economical. There are also many vegetarian food options. The food is freshly made, hot. It's not spicy at all, but the tables have hot sauce and condiments so you can make it to your liking. We recommend it and we will repeat it of course!

The second time in Munich and the second time in the soup kitchen. Very tasty and an ideal lunch snack 😊

Carrot-coconut-ginger soup, a dream ☺️

The soups are tasty, the portions are just right and the employees are always friendly even when it's busy. I always enjoy coming back

If you pay with EC and don't press the tip button, your tip will still be deducted. That doesn't work at all if I don't press it. No, you're not allowed to deduct a tip without my consent. You can be happy that I didn't report it. Still closed info your employee a man told me I had to press yes or no and wanted to give me back the money that I didn't take. have to confirm

Visited on 2024/12/27. At a restaurant famous for its soup, I ordered goulash with beef. It has a slightly salty taste, so it's best to eat it with bread. There were counter seats and table seats. It's nice to be able to just drop by.

Ordered a plate I thought was worth 6 euros, but the total was 15.90 or something. Now sure how that worked out.

Wide variety of world class soups and curries at a great price. Must visit for all lovers of soups. Keeps you warm on a cold day! Highly recommend!

Tasty and very filling all guests should try the German soup here!
