"Some of the best soup you will find anywhere! This place is doing so well that I heard it just expanded to QMart as well. He uses fresh ingredients and he takes a lot of pride in his craft and he offers free samples for anything he is serving that week. Give him a shot, especially his loaded pierogie!"

"We stopped by during our usual, but infrequent trip to the Farmers Market. I'm glad that we did because it was after lunchtime and I was hungry. I decided to order the pierogi soup and it blew my mind. I didn't realize how much I needed it, and it delivered. Chef Jeff is an artist and I'll be back. Especially when the pierogi soup is on the menu."

"Thrilled to see you at Coopersburg Farmers Market. I always get good soups from you Allentown Farmers Market. I just wanted to share with you that this previous weekend, we spent 48 hours trying to get a kitten out of a 70-ft tree, and it was freaking cold out. Eventually We rescued this kitten but the point is, after being so unbelievably cold and exhausted, enjoying your ham and bean soup was the best!!! Hands down the best ham and bean I've ever had before in my life. Thanks for helping out with dinner."
