Delivery and Carryout: The Soup Box - Lakeview

Last week's call for favorite delivery and carryout spots elicited several responses, which we'll list this week.

Chicagoist's own Aaron Bailey offers up "The Soup Box," 2943 North Broadway, as a carryout favorite.

"The chicken and wild rice is amazingly good ..."

The Soup Box features a daily revolving roster of 12 fresh soups, prepared off-site and cooked in the store each morning. Aaron notes that the store itself is pretty small, "... with enough space for the
'cauldrons' of soup, a few tables and that's it. Most of their business is take-out."

The Web site notes a two-soup minimum, with a $2 delivery charge. The soups are available in three sizes: a 12-oz. containter for $4.50, a 16-oz. container for $5.50 and a bread bowl option -- a 16-oz. soup served with a hollowed out 12-oz. loaf with a free can of pop for $6.25. All soups come with bread.

The Soup Box, 2943 North Broadway, is open 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. daily. Delivery begins at 11 a.m. until 8:30 p.m. "or so," says the Web site.
