“ i had not heard of yaupon until i tried diaspora and boy was i missing out! if you're open to trying a new thing this is the place for you! you might find your new favorite morning ritual. the food here is also delicious, all of the rotating soups i have tried have been spectacular, plus they come with a roll and either chips or a cookie! great deal! on top of all that, the staff is so kind, i love seeing new and exciting small businesses in the area :) ”

“ Wow this place is truly a gem. A rotating menu, that matches the season and temperature? Never knew I needed it more. I got the chicken bok choy soup today, and honestly might be one of the greatest soups I've had. It was so hearty, warming, and delicious. I was amazed. The service was super super sweet too. The two girls inside were quick, friendly, very polite, and lovely conversation. I think it took no longer than 3 minutes from me walking up to then leave with my order. With every soup there is a bread roll (with butter) and either chips or a cookie? The cookie was perfect too. Warm, texture was great, and nice chocolate. Definitely will be going back again. Will even get one of their espresso drinks too. ”

“ This was my first time trying Lect's and I couldn't have been more pleased! I heard about it online and when I checked the menu and saw beer brats & caramelized onion for today's soup, it became my mission to make it there before closing. This soup was amazing! Think of a french onion soup but with bratwursts and soo much flavor! The location is a cute little home-y spot with a walk-up window, which made it super quick and efficient to order and grab my food to-go. The service was excellent as well! A very friendly woman was working when I went and she was very quick with my order and still had a great attitude despite my arriving only about 15 minutes before closing. Will definitely be back! ”

“ I ordered this place on DoorDash when I was sick and it was perfect. Checked their website for their soup of the day and immediately ordered it. Who doesn't love soup and sandwiches. Such a comforting meal and will definitely stop by in person to check this place out. ”

“ Soup and bread isn't just for old time prisoners anymore. Now we can all enjoy delicious and comforting food too! Lect's Soup Stop is the opposite of the Soup Nazi seen on the old Seinfeld TV show. The staff is pleasant and the soups are superior. This was my first time here so as I told the counter lady this, she offered me a great description of the fares and even a couple samples of the soups I seemed most interested in. I chose the top item on the soup menu which was their Greek Lemon Soup (Avgolemono Soup). This soup was hearty, filling and very tasty. Afterwards, I had to look the soup up on the web to see how I could try to make it at home. Apparently, it is quite a staple in Greece. I added the mini panini bogo special the advertised in the window which is two slices of bread with a slice of American Cheese in-between and then panini grilled to perfection. These were great with my soup. They also offer several other sandwiches and salads on their menu. The soups switch out frequently with the Garden Vegetable being a permanent soup. Their building was an old train switching station in the heart of Georgetown and is charming. I checked out their website and found that Lect isn't someone's name but the 7028 Life Enhancement Charitable Trust, which assist local charities in their endeavors to provide assistance to our fellow citizens who need a hand. They are only open Mon-Fri from 10-3 which is perfect for this industrial type area. Now you can enjoy some great food and support a worthy cause! I will be back to try the other soups soon! ”

“ How fortunate for us who work in Georgetown to have this soup/sandwich joint in the area...short walk for many. The soup is extraordinary- every sip full of rich flavor from fresh ingredients. Sandwiches really are a perfect lunch too. Hearty, handmade food at a simple, humble little pick up spot. Online ordering is available and keep an eye on the online soup calendar to see what they are serving that day. ”

“ Came in from out of town and wanted a quick sandwich. Good sized sandwich for a good price! Quick to get food as well. ”

“ My wife was craving soup on one of those typical gloomy Seattle days and, lucky for us, Lect's was close by to fulfill her soup needs. The location is quaint featuring a walk up and order experience and pustule seating around the space. Would be a great place to sit and eat on a sunny day, enjoying plenty of shade from the nearby trees. It's a great place to take food to go when you're on the run as well. The two people serving and creating the food are kind, patient, and efficient. The food was fantastic. With a rotating option of soup dependent on the day of the week, my wife absolutely loved her soup of choice and my BBQ pulled pork sandwich was both filling and delicious. Also, some of the best Mac salad I've enjoyed while staying in Seattle. All while being (very) reasonably priced. If you're in the mood for an amazing cup of soup or a great sandwich, this is your spot! ”
