Pho Chu The

Footscray's single-dish pho specialist. Northern-style broth, brisk service, cash only.

Bare-bones, walk-in Vietnamese noodle bar. a TV playing, shared communal tables when busy, and a brisk, no-nonsense counter energy regulars call part of the charm.

A single-dish menu of Northern-style beef and chicken pho only, bottomless hot tea included, cash or PayID payment only, and an oxtail pho special that regularly sells out early.

Reviewers repeatedly single this out as Northern-style Vietnamese pho done properly. no menu padding, just broth, beef or chicken, and the classic sides.

Bowls from around $17 for a large serve are widely called generous and cheap, though a couple of reviewers felt a coffee-and-special-beef combo pushing past $40 was steep for a bowl of noodle soup.
