“ Banh Mi. Viet Iced Coffee. Authentic, delicious and a hidden gem in London! ”
“ Love this place for Banh Mi. I've had the pork special twice now and it's fantastic. Always warm fresh baguette with plenty of filling. Doesn't take too long either, a few minutes and you've a delicious Banh mi in your hands. They have a seating area inside with some more space downstairs, and of course offer takeaway. Even when busy for lunch they still had my Banh ready in under 5 minutes. ”
“ Been coming here every week at least ones, price to quality ratio is unbeatable in the area. We tried many Pho places around London, and always come back here. The Pho is great, love the chicken satay, Banh Mis are amazing. Representation is simple and efficient, taste is great, that is all that matters. Would definitely recommend all for a quick stop to enjoy food that is soulful. If you want to sit and enjoy long discussions, there are better places for that. ”
“ Banh Mi Town's Pho, Spring Rolls and Banh Mi are some of my absolute favourites for lunch in this area. So fresh and tasty and relatively good value compared to others nearby (Bang Bang Canteen). The staff are not always the friendliest, but their food is worth a trek and a wait ”

“ Very Authentic..... definitely all about the food. Very busy and full of Asian folk ..always a great sign. Had Pho special Beef and pancake....did not disappoint at all. Brought me back to Ho Chi Minh City and Los Angeles, the places I cut my teeth on Vietnamese food! Fantastic highly recommend. ”
“ Price: Less than a tenner for most of the food in the menu. They also have a 10 deal where you can have 2 dishes for 10. This is what my friend and I got. Service: The staff are nice although one of them kept on asking us if we were ready to order. Verdict: Good food, nice staff, ok portions, and affordable. I’m definitely coming back again. ”
“ After two hours waiting to be seen by my orthopedic surgeon, I had the most delicious lunch! This was my first time trying a Banh Mi Vietnamese sandwich, and the ones at Banh Mi Town did not disappoint. I had one half with Chicken Satay, and one half with BBQ Pork (my husband ate the other halves). They both tasted AMAZING! The proper Vietnamese bread really made the sandwich special; crunchy on the outside, super soft on the inside. Combined with the crunch of the cucumber and carrot, and the sweet juiciness of the meat, it was just superb! If you're near Warren Street in Central London, make sure to pop into Banh Mi Town on Hanson Street, W1W 6TS and try one of their delicious Bunh Mi sandwiches! ”
