FOOD IS THE HEART OF OUR BUSINESS!

Before we even opened our first store more than ten years ago, we cared about what Australians thought. And what you thought was that you deserved a better, healthier, tastier food option, regardless of what time of the day it was. Our family couldn’t have agreed more.  Fast forward to today and 150 stores later, your thoughts have become our purpose - to create healthy, satisfying food, made fresh daily, using the freshest local ingredients. Because goodness in means goodness out. And we all want to feel good about what we’re eating.

Our Soul Origin Training

Prior to opening your Soul Origin store, all new Franchise Partners complete the comprehensive initial six-week training program.

You will be trained by experienced in-store and support centre team members. Our training consists of a mix of theoretical, digital and practical training. You will be required to travel to Sydney for your training induction and management workshop. This will be held in the Soul Origin Support Centre and a training store in Sydney. This will ensure you will learn everything you need to know to operate and grow your business.

From signing to opening we back you, support you and provide you with everything we can to make to make you a success. So come in, take a seat at our table and become part of the Soul Origin Family.

The Classics

Pumpkin

Is there anything more soul warming than a delicious home-style soup? We’ve “revamped” our Pumpkin Soup recipe this year, using a family recipe passed down through generations and served to you! Our Pumpkin Soup is a wonderful combination of Jarrahdale Pumpkin. Rich, hearty and velvety smooth. Add a bread roll or cheese toastie to soak up that soupy goodness…

Chicken & Corn

The heart-warming classic. Inspired from the flavours of Southeast Asia. Rich corn kernels, complimented with tender pieces of chicken in a creamy broth. So much goodness in every spoonful. This comforting favourite will be sticking around for the entirety of the cooler months. If you can’t make it into store, have your soup delivered to you, now available on UberEats, DoorDash and Menulog…

Old Favourites

Spiced Lentil

Spice up your lunch with our Spiced Lentil Soup. This soup is full bodied with a sweet and spicy yet hearty flavour. Each spoonful of goodness filled with a bounty of fresh vegetables including sweet potato, celery, and apples. Looking for a vegan option? Ask for our Spiced Lentil soup without the garnish. Don’t wait in line to try this Soup with Soul, order ahead via the Soul Origin app…

Tuscan Veg

While not all of us are escaping to Italy to soak up the sun, this hearty and thick soup is a nod to the wonderful flavours of Italy. A rich vegetable broth with garden vegetables including tomato, cannellini beans, onion, carrot, kale, celery, and basil. This gorgeous vegetarian soup with soul is deliciously balanced and jam-packed with veggies! Best enjoyed with the addition of our soup roll!

Mushroom

This one is for our Mushroom lovers! An aromatic aroma of mushrooms, sauteed with spicy chunky vegetables in a rich cream base, it’s a comforting essential this Winter. Garnished with parmesan to add even more creaminess to this Soup with Soul. Don’t forget to pair the soup with a soup roll or cheese toastie to soak up that mushroom goodness!

New Soups with Soul…

Chilli Beef

Things are heating up here at Soul Origin. With the addition of our NEW Chilli Beef Soup. Made with spicy beef, tomatoes, pumpkin, sweet potato, and carrot accentuated with a smoky, yet sweet aroma. Sure to satisfy the heartiest of appetites. It will definitely give you the kick you need to stay warm this Winter…

Turmeric Chicken

One of the newest additions to our soup family. Our Turmeric Chicken Soup has a subtle spice aroma with a mild hint of heat. Plus, many nutritional benefits from sweet potato, ginger, and turmeric. A soup guaranteed to bust those winter blues and help you battle those dreaded winter colds.

Thai Coconut Chicken

We are obsessed with this Soup with Soul, our new Thai Coconut Chicken Soup! This soup has a wonderfully creamy smooth coconut curry flavour, with an explosion of spicy Tom Yum. It’s absolutely delectable, with each spoonful serving so much goodness and packing just the right amount of spice.
