The 19 Best Restaurants In Fitzrovia - London - The Infatuation

"If textures are what you’re after in your sandwiches, Banh Mi Town’s bánh mìs have got you covered. This tiny spot has what we like to refer to as ‘the peanut button’. Press the peanut button and your pork special, filled with pâté, cả lụa, caramelised belly, and ham, will also get a sprinkling of peanuts on top. We very much like it, and it's a really useful and cost-effective place to know about in central." - sinead cranna, rianne shlebak, heidi lauth beasley, jake missing

The Best Bánh Mì In London, Ranked - London - The Infatuation

"Bread-watch: A real two-hander. A soft (but not uncrisp) and wide (but not unmanageable) baguette baby. If textures are what you’re after in your sandwiches, then Banh Mi Town has got you covered. This tiny spot in Fitzrovia has what we like to refer to as ‘the peanut button’. Press the peanut button and your pork special, filled with pâté, chả lụa, caramelised belly, and ham, will also get a sprinkling of peanuts on top of its pickled vegetables and chilli coriander. It’s kind of funky, we very much like it, and this is a really useful and cost-effective place to know about in central." - jake missing

Where To Get A Park Picnic That Isn't Crisps & Hummus

"The Picnic Pick: A peanut-forward pork special bánh mì ⏱️  19-minute walk to Regent’s Park Self-care is knowing that a bánh mì should be big enough that you can’t physically doomscroll while eating it. Banh Mi Town is a teeny tiny spot in Fitzrovia that specialises in wide, two-hander baguettes and our favourite is the pork special—think pâté, think peanuts, think caramelised pork belly. If you’re in the mood to please the little step-tracking sadist that lives in your phone, walk to the bandstand by the boating lake for peak picnic views." - heidi lauth beasley

Auntie Banh Mi Review - Shoreditch - London - The Infatuation

"Auntie Banh Mi is a Lao family-focused bánh mì pop-up that you 100% want to know where it will next be. Their menu alternates, each one named after a family member, and the Auntie special feature cả lụa, spam, 24-hour roast pork and a smear of homemade pâté is probably the best all-pork bánh mì you can eat in London. The Brother In-Law, filled with fried chicken spring rolls is also excellent, and there’s always at least one vegetarian option. Whatever you do, don’t shy away from the family jeow, a sour and numbing Lao chilli paste that takes these sandwiches to the next level." - Jake Missing

from the first scoop you can tell the soup was made too much cinnamon and poorly balanced spice and herbs. noodle was slightly overcooked. bean sprouts wasn’t served separately and there wasn’t a lot. not a lot of toppings for a ‘large’ portion at the price point. taste of pho is just way below average, disappointing. service was cold and the whole shop gave a sad recession vibe.

Hold onto your hats, folks, because I just had a mouthwatering experience at this hidden lunch gem! 🍔🎉 The Satay Chicken Banh Mi was a flavor explosion – tangy, savory, and a hint of spice that hit the spot. And guess what? It didn't break the bank either! If you're seeking amazing taste without the wallet shock, this place is a must-visit. Your taste buds will thank you!

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.

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.

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! 😁

Reasonable offering for Vietnamese but the staff were fairly perfunctory and one of the orders was wrong. No huge deal as it was pork banh mi rather than the chicken (and turned out to be quite tasty) but could have easily been better. The savory pancake option was interesting and worth trying as an appetizer.

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.

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 👌

The beef pho broth is on point. Love their style of rice noodles too. It was like a soft and silky rice noodle instead of the vermicelli I am used to. For £10, probably one of the best cheap eats in London

Great food and good service. Busy restaurant so reservations suggested. Authentic Thai with an extensive menu. Medium spice was quite spicy for me.

Formerly Bang Bang Vietnamese back in 2017. Decided to grab something to eat from here as we were staying in an air bnb literally above the restaurant and I had been seduced by the wonderful smells that poured into our apartment every morning as a result. My husband enjoyed his pho, my dish was inedible which was a pity. From what I remembered, pricing was decent, service was fast, the restaurant was spacious enough and clean. I did like the interior design concept, it was almost 1920's inspired. They also had a few select flavours of bubble tea, which I remembered as the redeeming factor of the experience.

Amazing little gem in London...the Phô was fantastic and the people here are very nice. We ordered the summer rolls and the 2 phô with rare beef. We HIGHLY recommend!

Vietnamese food gone wrong! The base soup of phò beef noodle soup is not flaborful at all and in fact bland - no beef taste. There was anlot if noodles, the red meat was tough. Banh me bbq pork is not good either, why put shredded carrots in sandwich. A little mayonnaise in the sandwich would help the taste. We also irdered the rice plate with mixed meat, which was ok among the 3 orders we have. £0.50 per person for dining in. We chose your restaurant and are already eating in the restaurant - why be punished with a charge for eating in. Why is such charhe allowed by law in London? Asian food and Asian restaurant gone wrong!

The most flavorful and authentic Vietnamese food in Europe. I'm so glad it's here since I crave Vietnamese food when I'm in Europe and there's no place to get authentic homemade Vietnamese food. I really love the banh mi and bun bo hue. Office catering is very popular for events and parties. Great place for lunch and dinner. A lot of love goes into this excellent tasting food. You really can't go wrong with the pho, bun bo hue, thit nuong which are the noodle soups and grilled pork. Yum!!!!

Was craving for some Viet food and ran into this place, couldn't be happier. Their bun bo hue and veggie egg rolls were delicous! I'll definitely will be coming back!

The soup was very good. However they did mess up on my sisters order. The man behind the register was very kind and understanding so he gave us the right order. The cook came out of the kitchen and tried to argue with my mother about how it was our fault that we ordered wrong. He said if you order spicy, you're going to get spicy. We never ordered anything spicy because my family hates spicy. He kept trying to put the blame on us. I would of given 5 stars easily for the food and for the fixing of the order if the cook never came out and got defensive. It was just a simple misunderstanding.
