Pike place chowder has a chowder sampler and the other place I was thinking was Byrek and Baguette. Looking at BB's menu though I'm not seeing one so maybe they don't have it anymore? You can get a baguette and soup combo though
Sign me up, too. In my mind, it comes with unlimited baguette slices and/or garlic bread sticks as well as a bar with an assortment of dozens of shredded cheeses. Also there are various soup spoons available, including the deep asian ones.
Edit: Spelling, although chesses are welcome, too.
Around February each year we have a SOUPer bowl potluck at work.
People pitch in to bring in soups and stews and various breads.
It’s fantastic.
Someone last year brought a muffin tin from home to try all the different soups
We used to have a place nearby named "Souper Salads" with an all you can eat lunch buffet. If I recall they had at least 4-5 different soups to try. Nothing unusual, just common, basic flavors, but still in a similar vein to your desire. I think they were a chain, but I suspect they went out of business.
I was gonna mention Fresh Choice, which was a "healthy" option buffet, where the two main foods were salads and soups. And since it was a buffet, you could try all the soups and make as many salads as you could with the large salad bar of ingredients.
My town used to have a soup based fundraiser for the local food banks and shelters. A bunch of local restaurants would donate and serve samples of their soups with bread, crackers, etc. plus all the grilled cheese you could eat. Best dinner ever.
There used to be a chain restaurant near my workplace called Zoup. We all loved it! We would look at the menu for the week on Monday and if one of our favorite soups came up, we would all go grab some soup and bread for lunch one day. You could also taste all the soups before getting one. It was the best! But it sadly died during COVID lockdowns. RIP Zoup.
My grandpa made some okay minestrone and pasta fajioulle but compared to the other dishes he made it seemed just okay. It was what he made when he was using the leftovers and remnants of all the rest of his amazing cooking. Soup is just poverty food.

Yes, ceramics galore, with gilded inlay and reliefs depicting the glory of historic soup bacchanalia of eons past.

My town has a Chowderfest. It's great, dozens of places serve $2 cups and you walk all over town tasting and then you vote for your fav.

In my city we have Souper Bowl. It’s an event where local restaurants make their soups and you vote on the best. It’s a pretty cool event.

"Made with real food ingredients"
Did a robot write this?
"Enjoy your soup, fellow human!"
Wait...is that the robot in the background, making the soup...? What the HELL is that?!?

I'd climb aboard this soup train.
I'd sail on this soup cruise.
I'd drive on this soup highway.
I'd bend my spoon all over this soup matrix.

There was a California restaurant chain called Souplantation that about eight soups available. All you can eat. Closed during the pandemic.
They also had the most incredible salad bar I've ever seen.

They were gone long before the pandemic, though.

There was a lovely soup place in Iceland that did this, including a free refill of your soup. I never thought I could feel so overly full with soup.

Well, my parents have a gourmet club, where people cook different themes every month. So this could easily be a gourmet soup club.

There are hop-soup tastings. Not the same as tomato soup, bit still better than wine if you ask me.

Soup is a garbage tier food item. I really don't see the appeal besides it being cheap, I can't imagine going out of my way to seek out soup.

It is clear then that you have not experienced good soup before.
