How we read reviews →Unassuming Blackburn cafe serving some of Melbourne's best banh mi and pho, run by owner Kim.
Modest, cosy shopfront cafe with an on-site bakery; casual counter service that can get crowded and understaffed during the lunch rush.
On-site bakery (home-made pies, cakes, bagels, muffins), Vietnamese iced coffee, custom dietary accommodation on request.
Praised by multiple reviewers as genuinely authentic Vietnamese street food, including one who preferred it to what they found on six trips to Vietnam.
Split. banh mi and toasties are widely called cheap and generous (banh mi around $10, toasties from $5.50), but several reviewers found the pho overpriced for the portion, especially with card surcharges.
