Nothing is more comforting than a warm bowl of soup on a chilly day, and there’s no better place to get one than Panera. From creamy tomato soup to salty chicken noodle to the sweet autumn squash, there’s a soup for any mood. With their large selection of tasty soups and stews, there is something for everyone to enjoy.
WSS staffers Jules Keranen ’24, Yaya Orszula ’24 and Eleanor Weitz ’24, took it upon themselves to rank and review each soup at Panera to assess their strengths and weaknesses. They tried six soups, including the seasonal offerings of Autumn Squash and Turkey Chili. The only soup not included was the French Onion because it was unavailable during taste testing. The independent rankings were as follows:
Eleanor:
Chicken Wild Rice
Tomato
Broccoli Cheddar
Autumn Squash
Chili
Chicken Noodle
Jules:
Broccoli Cheddar
Chicken Wild Rice
Tomato
Chili
Autumn Squash
Chicken Noodle
Yaya:
Chicken Wild Rice
Broccoli Cheddar
Chili

Autumn Squash
The reasoning behind these rankings is included in our podcast linked at the top of the story. Listen to figure out which soup would suit your fancy or compare your own soup opinions.
