Hartford, Wi – A pretty well-known restaurant dining space in Hartford, Wi will soon be home to the Soup Korner as it is expanding and opening a second location.

“We’re opening in the old George Webbs, 1481 E. Sumner Street in Hartford,” said Renee Paape.

Over the past few months, Renee and husband David have been cleaning, revamping and adding their own special ‘Soup-Korner’ ambiance to the space.

The carpeting pops, the lighting is comfortable, the layout is homey and built around a beautiful 6-panel hardwood door and traditional family-style table setup. Gone will be the rush to eat and move along as there’s seating for 50.

“We tried breakfast here,” said Paape about their trial in April. “But since we can seat only 12 people, and apparently people like to sit and have breakfast and enjoy their coffee, we think Hartford will be a much better spot for a sit-down breakfast and lunch.”

“We will be doing breakfast and lunch in Hartford,” said Paape. “Our goal was always to expand, and we will have some pretty amazing waffles and egg wraps. We’re looking at adding omelets.”

Hartford City Administrator Steve Volkert said it will be “nice to have something going in where George Webbs has been vacant.”

“One of the most widely requested additions to our commercial mix is different restaurants so this should fit right in,” he said.

Paape is hoping to open in mid-May 2023. She said they will employ at least 20 people at their new spot in Hartford, Wi.

On a history note: Renee Paape had a store on Sixth Avenue in West Bend long before she opened the Soup Korner. Can you name it?
