Pho Hanoi — steaming bowl of phở
Soho · London · Since 2019

Phở.
Bún chả.
Bánh mì.
Done properly.

A small kitchen on Frith Street, run by a family from Hanoi. 16-hour broth, hand-pulled noodles, and the kind of bánh mì you'd find on Hàng Bồ.

⟢ Our Story ⟣

From a kitchen on
Phố Hàng Bồ.

Our grandmother Bà Lan cooked phở on a corner of Hàng Bồ for over thirty years. Same pot every morning. Same charred ginger. Same queue by half eleven.

We opened Phở Hanoi on Frith Street in 2019. The recipe hasn't changed. The broth still simmers for sixteen hours. The noodles are still pulled by hand in the back kitchen each morning.

Just us, the family, a kettle of broth and a queue of hungry Soho. That's the whole thing.

“The broth is the real thing. Properly Hanoi. I come every Tuesday before a shift and it's the only place in Soho that gets it right.”
