Hale and Hearty, New York City's premiere gourmet fast casual restaurant, operates 23 locations in the NYC, Brooklyn and Long Island regions along with a location in Boston. Hale and Hearty offers a daily menu of homemade soups, gourmet sandwiches, and fresh tossed to order salads served with homemade dressings. Everything we craft is designed to provide bold flavors that are fresh for the taking. The first Hale and Hearty Soups opened in 1995 on 64th Street and Lexington Avenue. We quickly gained a reputation for an outstanding selection of delicious soups. With such great success in our first location, and the plan to open more restaurants, we built our first commissary in the Chelsea Market in 1997. We wanted to make sure that each and every guest in Hale and Hearty would enjoy the same soul- satisfying soup, curated with care. As our company continued to open more retail stores and our Foodservice division expanded to more than 20 states making our "secret sauce" available to other operators in the restaurant, grocery, hotel, and most other segments, we outgrew our space in Chelsea, and built a much larger facility in Brooklyn in 2008. USDA and NSF certified, our Brooklyn Commissary uses state-of-the-art technology that allows us to cook large batches of soups without sacrificing quality. We use only the freshest ingredients, and our soups are never frozen. Year after year as our menu evolves from the traditional soups to the more exotic along with Simmer Bowls, made to order salads and fresh sandwiches, Hale and Hearty continues to receive favorable reviews not only from New Yorkers but also local & national media, the ever-popular Zagat guide., and multitudes of tourists from all over our country and the World. Dine in, pick-up, delivery, catering, or through our many Foodservice partners, Hale & Hearty is proud to still be stirring the pot of culinary excellence more than 20 years later.
