Mild broth flavour, tender beef slices, generous portion, and delicious papaya & prawn salad. The diner was small and it was a bit cold despite being a sunny spring day, otherwise would be perfect. I would recommend their Vietnamese coffee as well 👍

Really nice little spot with a warm and cozy atmosphere. The food was fresh and tasty, especially the spring rolls – super crispy on the outside and full of flavour inside. Staff were friendly and service was quick. A great place to relax and enjoy a good meal. Would definitely come back!

Uber Eats order (May 2026)
Beef pho - 2/5
Tofu spring rolls - 2/5

I’ve never heard of a pho place that does half chicken and half beef broth for a beef pho. Uber Eats should advertise this as not beef broth. It was not good. The beef was not brisket. It tasted cheap. 2/5

The tofu spring rolls were equally disappointing. They were completely flavorless but beyond that the dipping sauce - that is normally a peanut sauce - tasted like sweet McDonald’s bbq sauce??

I’m just very confused. It is cheap but it’s not worth it.

I would not reorder either of these items and I probably would try a different place next time.

Visiting this place whenever I’m nearby has become a ritual for me! This restaurant made Vietnamese food one of my comfort cuisines. I used to come here all the time with friends for lunch or dinner when I lived nearby, and even after moving, I still keep coming back or ordering in.

I almost always order the same favourites — Vietnamese coffee (hot or cold), King Prawn Goi Cuon (summer rolls) to start, and the Bun Vit Hue spicy duck noodle soup 😋

It’s a true hidden gem if you’re in the area or studying in City University.

Great food! I ordered on uber eats and was still very fresh and came very quickly!

(The bun cha Hanoi was one of the closest I’ve had in London to the ones in Vietnam!)
