8 Best Soup Spots in Portland [PHOTOS]

I've got a case of the sniffles, the air is quite brisk, and the leaves are crunching beneath my boots. It's officially autumn in Maine, or as I like to call it, Soup Season.

After coming down with the office cold this week, the only thing I want to eat is hot, steamy bowls of soup. Spicy soup, sweet soup, Asian soup, creamy soup...Give me all the soups.

I researched the best soup spots in Portland on Yelp (at first for my own benefit) and found some restaurants I've never tried and some old favorites that surprised me with their great soup reviews. I can't be the only one fighting off sniffles and a sore throat, so I wanted to share the love.

These are the 8 Best Soup Spots in Portland, according to Yelp. Have you tried any of these bowls of steaming hot deliciousness?
