I am a fan of both hard and soft pretzels. For soft, Auntie Anne's (the Martin's website says soft pretzels coming soon - very excited :)). For hard, Martin's can't to beat. I have been purchasing the bulk bag (4 lbs!) of broken pieces for years (lots of whole ones in the bag). Most recently tried the extra salty - unfortunately, cannot stop eating them. Does wonders for my taste buds; not so much for my weight :). Enjoy!
