Olive Garden is famous for its endless breadsticks. They’re less well-known for their SOUP BY THE GALLON…
Yes! Die-hard Olive Garden fans are amped after finding out you can order soup by the GALLON. It literally comes in a bucket.
It’s never really been a secret. You just have to order through their catering menu. Their four soups are Chicken & Gnocchi, Pasta e Fagioli, Minestrone, and Zuppa Toscana.
Food & Wine pointed out Olive Garden’s catering portions are only available for delivery or to go, so you can’t sit there and gross everyone out by eating a bucket of soup at the bar.
You can order half-gallon or full-gallon buckets. Prices vary by location, but they do cut you a deal for buying your soup in bulk.
It can be four to five times cheaper than single servings, around $2.50 a bowl, compared to $12 a bowl if you ordered off the normal menu.
A full gallon serves 12 people, so people are using it as a meal-planning hack to save money. The one drawback is it doesn’t come with breadsticks. You’d have to order those separately, and pay for them.
