Darn Good Soup opening westside restaurant in Bloomington

Darn Good Soup will open a westside restaurant in Bloomington soon, possibly later this week. A favorite in Bloomington, Darn Good Soup was brought back by Pat and Jamie East, who served up the soups beginning in November 2025 at the Bloomington Chocolate Moose . The original Darn Good Soup restaurant closed in March of 2021 . In the past month, Chocolate Moose's Nashville location has begun offering Darn Good Soup, as well.

"The ones that people really seem to like are chicken tortilla, West African chicken peanut, lentil spinach and twice-baked potato," Pat East said.
