Ladle of Love in Bronxville is a charming, small, takeout-only food shop renowned for its focus on healthy, farm-to-table comfort food. It is part of a larger, award-winning chain based in Westchester, with several locations. This particular shop operates out of a cozy, Paris-style kitchen that emphasizes convenient grab-and-go options for lunch and dinner, catering to busy locals seeking nutritious choices.
Ladle of Love has established itself as a pioneer in Westchester, being the first locally sourced, prepared-food brand in the area. The ingredients used in its dishes are carefully gathered from nearby farms to ensure freshness and sustainability. These locally-sourced ingredients are often highlighted in seasonal specials that showcase the Best of what the farm season has to offer. The menu changes daily and features a variety of handcrafted soups and stews, which are central to the shop's offerings.
One of its most popular menu items is the Harvest Celebration soup, a hearty and flavorful dish made with a blend of butternut squash, sweet potatoes, carrots, apples, and a touch of maple syrup—perfect for autumn mornings or chilly evenings. Many items on the menu are clearly marked as vegan or gluten-free, including the flavorful Moroccan Red Lentil soup and a selection of paninis, ensuring options for various dietary preferences.
Since opening in 2017, the Bronxville location has become a local favorite. It occupies a compact 170-square-foot space at 18 Palmer Avenue. The shop features limited counter space and a well-stocked grab-and-go refrigerator, but it does not offer seating, encouraging customers on the move to make quick pickups. Despite its small size, Ladle of Love has received multiple awards, including "Best of Westchester," as well as various accolades for its innovative business model and commitment to quality, sustainability, and community engagement.
